| Re: Essentials Tools!!!! hi tony m58 ,this "megger"thing is personal preference i suppose ,ive got a wind up "wee megger" a battery analog megger and a seaward sbs 7671 multi function tester ,for critical work say testing motors for example,i would go for the wind up everytime,its never let me down ,flat batterys must affect a reading so i wouldnt risk it ,digital instruments have there place and i personly think its in the bin. |

| Re: Essentials Tools!!!! rumrunner, quite right - personal prefernence I stopped using wind ups about 10 yrs ago (and i have tested one HELL of a lot of motors and generators). Presuming the meter does not indicate a duff battery then the test voltage on a digital will be more stabil than a wind up, but to be honest thay are not HALF as much fun when you connect them to peoples ears!!! |
