To answer my own question:
But only 47kHz, I'd like something like that with a couple hundred kHz....

Are there any cheap approximations of the Iprober 520 fluxgate sensor
current probe?
Maybe some sort of IC?

I did look at making one with a Hall sensor - the electronics isn't a
problem but the difficulty arises (for me at least) in cutting the slot
in a ferrite ring to put the sensor in or even splitting the core to
make a clamp. I guess it's easier if you have access to the right tools.
Any ways, this works well for me :-)

If you only need low frequency the LEM brand hall effect sensors, I
believe Allegro also makes chip based ones, can be an option.
Also remember you can put 10 turns through if you need more
sensitivity (insertion impedance permitting).
