Gooday ,
I purchased a YZ variable voltage (2-2,000V) leakage tester.It did not come with any useful charts.
I am trying to find a suitable reference chart that states the leakage in Milli-amps depending on type, uf and voltage .
I would be grateful if anybody would inform me .
Thanks ,......................Alan

I had one posted from overseas .YZ brand , bench type and about 7lb . tested it and found it Quite accurate .It will test to 2KV or down to 2V .the manual is in Chinese , but, the computer translated it (most of it). The clever thing also will test the voltage rating of a electrolytic without damaging it .I am not to sure how it does that but it worked . It also tests voltage regulators , diodes and transistors .
The wiring is a bit rats-nest, No earth on the high voltage and mains transformer , 2,000V passing through ordinary hook up wire!!! , It is not double- insulated . It needs a...

Thanks Mariushm for all the trouble you have gone to ,
What really got my attention is the Mastech MS5308 I think it is a must have..............Alan...

GR Bad loser I am not a "Mate" of yours and never will be as I am very fussy . End of discussion with you as you are looking for a fight and I respect this forum and every one on it . Please do the same !!!..............

Re: ESR and V tester



Thank you, I Supertech
I looked up the Peak Atlas and that is exactly what i was looking for .All i have to find now is a reasonable leakage meter....

Re: ESR and V tester

Kiriakos GR .
What in the world made you think like that???
I worked for 60 years as a technician and electronics is still my hobby now I am retired
I am having a friendly chat in a friendly forum .
I appreciate and no doubt the forum appreciates civil replies to members inquiries .
Anyway, any one can have a bad day ,so ,
no offense taken , all the best GR ...........Alan

Re: ESR and V tester

Kiriakos GR I just refound the outlet that sells cheap adjustable voltage electrolytic testers that i was looking for ,
How about you discovering the tools of 2013 ? before stating that the manufactures are all dead. Thank you for your helpful reply....................Alan

Good day.
Any body know of a good cheap ESR meter and electrolytic voltage tester combined (bench type).
I found one on the net ,but, forget its location . It was about 130 $.
Any info would be appreciated as I am finding more and more electrical stuff are faulting mainly due to the low quality electrolyte's in them .
Unless i am wrong , I have noticed the capacity is usually lower that what is written on them.,........................Thanks,..Alan

If the speakers sound OK they are OK , the ears are the final judge .
All speakers are designed to take overloads for short times .
You bugger them if they are overloaded for a long time or consistently...........................Alan
