What are you using and why? Digital or liquid filled?

Currently, I use both standard Bourdon Tube dry and liquid filled gauges.
The liquid filled seem to have better "flutter" resistance, the dry gauges are the cheapest.
I have not invested in digital gauges. YET!
I am seriously considering a set of Digi-cools.

I got a Testo 510 last summer and have been happy with it so far. I use it on almost every service call.

:o:o Oops.
In that case, I'm still a low-tech guy. I use a magnahelic. I have very little call for those types of measurements, so have not seen the need for digital at this time.

$Analog:$Digital = 1:1?
1:2?
Digital readout implies an accuracy that may not be there, and digital meters may be less reliable due to increased complexity.
