JL294-3 Transistor Tester

By Jestine Yong on April 30, 2011

I was informed by one of the blog reader about this tester. It seems to have some similar function with the DY294 Digital Transistor Tester. This tester is made in China and if you are currently using it i wish you can share about the capabilities of this tester. For more information of this tester you can click on the photo and use Google translation to translate it into the language you wanted to read.

I have one of these and it seems to me that it is a early version of the DY-294. I haven't used it in while but if your thinking of getting one I would recommend the DY-294. I think they do most of the same tests.

its very nice device but need to be thinked , accuracy will be maintained by analogue meter testing .
i like to test component with analogue AVO meter because off accuracy test and reliability.
otherwise, its upto the repairer what will be the best precision test equipment for them.

thanks you

Dear Mr. Yong,
Please give me a commit for DY294 vs JL 294-3.
I need to do the test occasionly, most on HFE.
Which one is convient to use? better functions? I can only afford one for my hobby.
I also have a curve tracer with separate OSC for serious measurement.
This one will be used for safe/fail and preliminary test.
But accuracy is still wished.
Please send me a mail soon. By the way, accuracy comes first than the multiple functions. If they are the same, I will choose DY294 with a external power plug, I do not trust the battery very much, specially test on larger size transister.

Hi,

I suggest that you get a normal digital multimeter that have the hfe function to test on the transistor which is much easier unless you want to buy the DY294. I do not have jl294-3 meter thus i can't give any comment on this.
