[chbot] Multimeter with USB logging

[Charles Manning]

The big question is often: what are you trying to achieve?

I've fiddled with a logging DMM a bit and have had two issues with them:
1) Low bandwidth.
2) They turn themselves off.

Now I'm sure not all DMMs suffer those limitations and/or those limitations
won't matter for many uses.

For my application I ended up going for other solutions (using a micro or
using a yoctopuce + PC).
