Hey Dana; I just found this new Amprobe Battery tester the other day when I was coming up with my Santa wish list. I don't know if I've been a good enough boy though, they retail I think for about $700. http://amprobe.com/cgi-bin/pdc/viewprod.cgi?pid=2425&tid=main_e&type=elec
They also have a portable IV tester for PV modules, but it only does individual modules, not strings (limited to 60 v) R.
