LED testor will save you tons of work and give you very quick light intensity difference in the design. You will want it once you used it. Try testing 1000 pcs of leds, to make sure they works before soldering, using the multimeter(like your vom meter), you will know what I mean. Or for another scenario, try changing your design from using 20mA to 30mA. Without the LED testor you have to re-wire your whole thing! With the LED testor, you just plug the LED in!!!
Potentiometers are not meters!!!! They are pots for you to adjust resistance thus changing voltage-devices for fine tuning the final product or during the design phase.
