Use a variety of Low, Medium and High input Impedance Analog Voltage Meters + Multimeters, in conjunction to the DVMs and DMMs.

Also use my old Analog type "Amprobe" clamp-on Ammeter, in conjunction with the Digital counterparts.

The Analog display - with the sweeping "Needle" - makes a great visual aid when levels are fluctuating.

My most simple fix, as to tame peaks shown on a High input Impedance DVM is to connect my Wiggy in Parallel with the DVM's leads.
Aligator clip the DVM's leads to the circuit, then place the Wiggy's leads in the same circuit.
Dumps the Cap. charge safely, and no shunt Resistor is needed!
