i cant tell from your sig do you have an extra battery? if so it might be nice to be able to monitor the voltage of it. i think without an extra bat then having a voltmeter is only a preference. it would give you a better idea of the power in your system.

if you mean a DVOM(multimeter) than yes I highly recomand you pick one up. any Fluke meter is great even the cheap ones. the radio shack ones suck 'cause they can't read AC voltage even their higher line ones the craftsman ones would be my choice because they are fairly accurate, cheap, and have a lot of options.

just my $00.02
