"Dear Vitor Manuel, Your meter arrived yesterday. I tried it already on some capacitors and it gave the expected values. On bad capacitors the values were about 10 times higher. So it works like a charm! I'll recommend you to other people. Good luck with your work. BTW, the meter is free of Customs Taxes when ordering within the European Union." -- Pepijn Boon -- Delft -- Netherlands

 

“I received the ESR Meter today, and it seems to work fine! Thanks very much for the good service :) Best Regards” -- Brian Klint, -- Denmark

 

“The ESR meter is in excellent condition and the initial tests I did showed that meter performs very well. Best Wishes”Peter van Merkerk, the Netherlands (another satisfied customer!) It is nice doing business with you.

 

I received the meter, and it looks fine.Nice work.Thanks for a well performed trade. Omnitec -- v./ Poul Bundgaard -- Denmark

 

Today is Tuesday 20 January 10.00 and there was the postman calling my front door Special Delivery from Portugal. Indeed the ESR tester.

 

Package & Packaging is OK and all the accessories are there, I installed a battery and surely one has to take care NOT to press out the Red LED window......Performing the QC Incoming Inspection learned me that the tester works as advertised, I like to comment on the Workmanship....EXCELLENT all those tiny little stress relievers, PC board markings and lay-out. So I know the system is working and I'll invite my friends to place more orders....Bram Stolk, aka Mr. HAWK Sr SeniorBusiness Development Manager -- Fokker Defense Marketing -- the Netherlands

 

"I received the meter few days ago. Shipment was fast and the item was well packed. The build quality of the device looks excellent. I've had no problems. Best regards - Aarne Jokinen - Finland"

 

Hello Mr. Manuel, today the 2 esr meters you have sent, have arrived by post in perfect condition. Waiting for the 3rd esr meter, I want to thank you for selling me these fine instruments. Best regards, Lieven Vanhulle on4cvl - Belgium

 

"Vitor, The ESR tester arrived promptly just as you promised. It is impressive and seems to work very well, and the price is well below competitive products. I have tested about 100 electrolytic capacitors with it and surprisingly only found two that were outside an acceptable range. BUT, I probably wouldn't have found them at all without your device! Kudos! --Bill Blue, USA"

 

I just received the meter today, everything seems to be in order! Thanks! Regards, Kim Johan Andersson - Denmark

 

Hi Vitor, Just to let you know that the meter arrived today (wed 11th). Many many thanks. Regards, Kevin- UK

 

Vitor, I wanted to let you know that I received the meter today. I have only been able to test it on 2 new capacitors and it appears to be accurate. I can not wait to try it in the field and see how well it works. The look and construction is very good. I am real pleased with this unit and I would like to thank you for the great transaction. Once I find it valuable I will try and get my company to buy 1 for each technician.Thank you so much,-

Dear Vitor, The "EVB ESR meter" arrived yesterday Saturday 9/25/04 at 4PM. I measured the ESR on several good capacitors < 0.05 ohms for 470 uF 250 V. One bad capacitor had just a - ohms. Thanks. David David L Narva Reno, NV USA

 

Vitor, Just to let you know. It arrived on Friday, and I have now used it to check some capacitors on my old Drake R-4C receiver. Have found some that look bad that I will change. Lars E. Pettersson http://www.sm6rpz.se/ Goteborg SWEDEN

 

Hallo Vitor, thanks for Your mail. Excuse, I was very busy over the weekend, so I'm answering only today. I received the meters yesterday well packed!! and undamaged. After I found time to test and examine them thoroughly I will send You my comments and if necessary positive! critics on them. Since You've sent only one manual I will, with Your permission, make a copy for the friend the second meter is designated for. Best regards,Roland Schuessler - Muenchweiler - Germany

condiciones, aunque el paquete esta un poquito afectado (foto). Gracias atentamente Egied - Belgie



Ok, thank you very much for your fast reply to my questions. I like the meter and it works very good.
ESR in capacitors was something I wasn't able to measure until now. I also find very useful the low ohm measuring capability. I use a Sencore LC53, a hand held cap meter, an old analog ICE 680R which I bough new in the early 70's and a couple of other DMM (fluke 189..), but no
direct ESR capabilities until now with the new EVB. Thank you and good luck with the sales.

Hi Vitor,Meter arrived safely today, not had a chance to play with it yet. Thanks. Regards Noel - UK

 


I tryed inmedelity the meter and I am very happy with it . To automaticly discharge the capacitors I have an idea .
With a standard and a special test probe with a push button in it , simular as used by a scope , when you start measuring bolt probes are shorted by the 100R resistor and after a few seconds , you push the button on the probe and start realy measuring the capacitors . Regards   Wim - the Netherlands


Hi Vitor
Received the meter and very pleased. Just for information though I had to push the sleeving down on the switch as it was a little too sensitive. I have taken the meter in to my employer and highly recommended your product. Many thanks again for such excellent service. Marc. UK


Vitor Manuel,  got the meter in good shape. The electronics are most likely OK. Will try it out as soon as I can! Thanks for the quick service, I look forward to fixing everything in my house that's busted! Mark - USA

 


Many thanks Vitor, the meter was received in good order today morning. it is exactly what i need. here is a short review i did on our capacitor forum http://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1287 william - USA

 


Hello Vitor, The meter arrived today and, after a brief play, seems to work well. Thank you for such prompt service. Regards, Steve. USA

 

 

Vitor,Just wanted to let you know the ESR meter arrived this morning. I have already used it to confirm a 'bad' electrolytic capacitor. So simple and easy, should have done this years ago. Many, many thanks. Best regards,Norman Thompson UK

Hello Vitor, I already received your ESR-meter last friday. It is a very good meter and I think a colleague of mine will order one more for him within some times :-) I checked with some capacitors : I salvaged 2 caps from my garbage bin that I changed from a previous repair because

they were "bad" and I found that they both had an ESR of 10 ohms ! I checked with some tantalums but these are not so good for ESR, except some old (more than 20 years) "metal tantalum" that are still very good (#10 milli-ohms). We also checked with a professional "inductance/capacitance meter" we have in our office : it has 3 digits precision (probably also more than 3 digits for the price in euros !) and the values from both meters are the same (+/- 1 digit).

Hello Vitor, The ESR meter I ordered has arrived. Thanks for the quick service. John Myers - Alliance, OH USA

 

Hi Vitor: I received the meter in good condition yesterday. It has already proven very useful in that I was able to to find 2 bad electrolytic capacitors in power supply the first time I used it. Interestingly enough, the caps had previously tested ok with a regular cap meter, but showed high ESR readings with the EVB meter. Sure enough, the 2 bad caps were pulling the power supply regulators down! I replaced

them, and the power supply is good now. Thanks again for a great meter. (P.S.- how about offering a nice protective case for the meter?)
 Best regards, Ron

 Hi Vitor, the meter was received today.

Question: Could you send me a bill, so I can receive the money back from my company
Question: Is the ESR meter also good for tanatalum and ceramic capacitors or only for electrolytic?

Hi Vitor - received the chip yesterday and fitted it together with 2 back to back diodes across the input terminals to reduce chances of it happening again. Meter now works fine - I was surprised to find that no other components had failed - I was expecting to have to replace a transistor or two and probably the bipolar capacitor, but they seem to have survived. Many thanks for your help - I'm always recommending this meter, but now I can add your details - the EVB meter looks more professional than the DSE - slimmer and more modern.
Once again - many thanks for assisting in a speedy recovery.

Hi Vitor,


I picked up a new set of test leads and that was the problem, I am able to zero the leads.  Thank you for your quick reply and suggestion.  I am completely satisfied with the operation of the meter.
Thanks again for a great product.
