Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
Still does not make it any good measuring in curcuit, which means its utter useless.

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
That's just bullshit mister. I got great ESR Micros v4.0si on stock, complete ready-to-use in proper casing, with english manual and 2year warranty, relay protection with discharge circuit included. Measures only capacitors, works in circuit flawlessly. It is just good to remember that capacitors in parallel add their capacitance and divide their ESR
But hey, keep buying chinese crap, wait long weeks for that just to get it screwed etc.…
Those crappy things with laughable wires and batteries floating everywhere around it, with no casing etc. you are all buying are all based on that open-source german design. I can get you a proper one in casing etc. as well, but I don't resel them because they are utter useless. As they are auto-sense, they always measure anything else but the thing you want in circuit. I can pretty much use el-cheapo multimeter for all those diodes and transistors so that does not help me much. The only use it has is to measure tiny caps (ceramic, foil) and some transformers, especially inverter transformers. For that you can buy that chinese monster, but I strongly advice you to get ESR Micro as well.
Atlas is overpriced for how obsolete the design is.Last edited by Behemot; 11-07-2015, 09:20 AM.Leave a comment:

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
I think I'm going for this one

$21.50 shipped, but it comes with a higher parts count and the rotary encoderLeave a comment:

I think he's offering to send you the cables.Leave a comment:

Do I want it sent again? I never got the fscker in the first place! Do you understand any English?Leave a comment:

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
My response:
Hello. I saw the picture and only the BATTERY and the CLIPS were stated as NOT INCLUDED. The rest of the cable should have been in package.
The tester doesn't work as stated because I cannot connect to it any CLIPS or PROBES. Please tell me how I am going to do in circuit testing when I cannot connect probes to that 3 pin plug, because I don't have any cable to match THE PLUG!!!!
Please refund or send me the cable that I show in BLACK CIRCLE: https://www.dropbox.com/s/foq15zsdoa...20see.jpg?dl=0
Very disappointed with not honest treatment.
His reply:
HOW ABOUT SENT YOU AGIAN TEST CABLE .IS THAT OK ?Leave a comment:

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
cables are shown in the foto, clips are clearly marked by a box as "not included"
so it should come with the cables.
the black overlaid text on the cables is new and was not there originally.Leave a comment:

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
First, direct him to the Rosetta Stone website because his English is horrible.Here is the reply I got:
t-happy sent you a message about your request:
"hi . the item have not with test cable . I hope you can understand . pelase check my ad Picture.I hope you can understand we've sold many of these items Many customers have not with test cable
.please see the description . does it work fine?If still doesn't work, let me know as soon as possible. best regards"
What should I do now???????
Second, if this was eBay and it didn't explicitly say in the description that leads weren't included, then open a SNAD claim. eBay policy clearly states that there can be no text in images, so he can't claim the pictures said the leads weren't included. That picture also does not accurately represent the item.
eBay picture policies.

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
The supplied "test cable" isn't that great anyway. The wires are stiff and the connector works loose and they come with no clips. So you saved $1 and have to make your own cable or send it back. Hit it with a hammer and say it was damaged in shipment. Send it back and spend more on shipping and hassle or whatever. Is it worth it to you?Leave a comment:

Re: Help needed getting an ESR meter...
I already left him a positive feedback. Yes, I am stupid. I contacted him under the general topic " asking for a refund"
I am really angry as I cannot use the item as it is described and as I would like. This is fraud.

I read EBOOK of Testing Electronic Component and found that
"In order to test the small blue resin coated ceramic disk capacitor which has 104 50v specification,it is possible to test this small ceramic capacitor by making use of analogue meter.
Set to times 10Kohm that has 12v output from the probe to check disorder of ceramic capacitor.
It is not uncommon that testing result of digital capacitance meter is okay,But It show shorted reading when you check it with analogue meter."
Is it really possible to test small ceramic disc capacitor with analogue... -
Hi
I want to change the scale of an analog meter, to monitor the charge of an li-ion single cell, so the needle at the end would point 4.2 volts and the 0 on the meter would point 2.5 volts or so, i tried to add diodes or a zener in series with the meter but the changes of the ambient temperature also changes the voltage value on the meter
I wonder how i can accomplish this so the meter would be precise at any temperature ?

About a month ago we had a transformer jumper wire that burned in two different places between two transformers caused over $200 thousand dollars worth of damage to VFD drives at least 10 of them and a memory card and quite a few power supply as well
Now we have most of the equipment that got damaged back up and running except a feeder that has issues and we are waiting for some parts for
Now we also have another piece of equipment that was blowing fuses on the 110 volt controller switch circuit with the “E” stops and one switching power (24 volt) supply and a transformer... -
Greetings, new guy here but always interested in the crazy universe of modding
We just finished construction of around 25 vacation houses, all inside the same private area.
Each house has 3phase power , and we bought an atlas MK10 meter for each house (25 meters total ! )
The metering on a per-house basis is done privately. Its not done by a utility company. The utility company will only charge us for the total consumption of all 25 houses together.
Id like to do a small modification on the firmware of our MK10 to make it easier identify each house's...05-20-2025, 09:09 AM -
I have had this in my wish list for quite a while now and I might need to test BMS protection board with this device because of the limitations of the battery testing machine that I have been using
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/32568...yAdapt=glo2usa
What this will allow me to do is use my load testing machine that is having issues with the voltage cutoff set/ current meter monitoring system and I decided not to try to replace it or repair it I just going to use a very primitive load testing...
