True RMS Clamp/Multimeter

Does one exist that allows you to measure ac amps and ac volts at the same time? (for testing power of an amp)

Jacob - you can measure volts and amps at the same time with that meter??

Im pretty sure Les got that meter and could only display ac volts or ac amps at one point in time, not both at the same time

mine does both at the same time, it has 2 seperate displays. I do it all the time at work to check if the voltage drops at peak current useage for electrical equipment. it does both, true RMS, at the same time. essentially, it is 2 seperate meters

Anyone think something like this would do anything? ZebraHobby.ca
I've always wanted to get one for it's intended purposes of power readings for my electric rc planes.
