The Voltohmist is a VTVM (vacuum tube volt meter)...it's solid state equivalent is a VOM (volt ohm meter). Modern measurement devices are DMMs which use LCDs to display a digital value for voltage, current, resistance etc...All these will work about as good as each other in nearly all cases. Seeing as you're a beginner I'd recommend a DMM as they are much simpler to use, easier to read, and don't require calibration every time you turn them on. Also if you blow up your DMM a replacement can be had as quick as a trip to your local hardware, auto parts store, Walmart etc.
