I'm about to pick up my 906ts today, let's compare notes in a bit.

I use an Autel MP808, OBDlink MX Pro with Alfa OBD, one of the HF cheaper clamp meters (need to upgrade here), a test light, and a Quicklynks BA101 battery tester. I have three chrysler vehicles and one Ford so the Alfa OBD is a nice addition. This is all for home gaming. Electrical is my big weak spot, but I'm slowly learning!

I have a Southwire bluetooth multimeter that I picked up on clearance at Lowes last year. I bought it only because it was so cheap, but it's proven to be quite handy.
Some of the electrical tools I use the most are:
OEM and aftermarket scan/programming tools for ECU/programming stuff.
Homemade software for aftermarket ECU tuning and diagnostics.
Picoscope and Fluke oscilloscopes for signal acquisition.
Fluke DMMs for routine stuff.
Pico and Fluke current clamps for current testing.
Snap-On and Power Probe short finding meters.
Homemade 0-100A variable circuit loader.
Homemade signal generator for simulating sensors.
Snap-On and OTC battery testers.
Extech circuit identifier.
RF analyzer/simulator for keyfobs and TPMS.
Fuse Buddies and Relay Buddies.
Those are just some of the tools I use for electrical diagnostics.
Also, FYI, the Fluke 87 has an input impedance of 10M ohms. So it only requires approximately 0.05-1.5uA through the circuit to accurately measure automotive DC voltages.
