Hi Maurice,

Sorry I don't have the tester with me. From the post, it was written that it belongs to an electronic supplier.

Its not in the bag, damm. Can you send me some photos of the manual? Would be great. I don't remember how to use it proper at the moment. 3 measurements A-B-C Switch B.CHE. Can't find the manual on line.
Many thanks.
Maurice

HI Antonio,

If you already have an ESR meter (analog and digital) then you don't need to get another one unless if you like the feature that it can test the coils.

Hi Jestine I wanted to ask an opinion and I'm sorry if this has nothing to do with
tester video heads, but I found on ebay an analog ESR Tester by name
Capacheck Mictron built by the Creatronica in Argentina but imported and sold in India. This tester is very interesting to me as well as accurately measure the ESR of a capacitor
can also take the test on charged capacitors and also when the board is powered up, it can take the test and DCR can try the flyback transformer and switch-mode power supply transformers. and then I liked it so much also for aesthetics.
Only downside is that it costs a little more than other digital ESR meter.
Jestine What do you think, do you think it's worth getting one? If she has more knowledge of this tester please give me your opinion.
I have already two meters esr one analog and one digital, but I have fixed this tester which I have mentioned before.
This is the link on ebay where you can buy this esr meter analog:

Hi Waleed,

Thanks for sharing. By the way, from the spec it seems this testes is used to check on the inductance of the video head. Usually in micro henry.

i gave it some another tech person to use it and brought it back broken..I guess he did not know how to use it.
