Testing Batteries

Looking for suggestions on what type of meter to buy to test my batteries before flying or between flights. Using 4.8V on ignition and 2 (using batshare) 6.0V on receiver. All are NiMH type batteries. Would like to check voltage and also voltage under load. Any suggestions will be helpful. Thanks.
