    The best labeling job ever!

    Great stuff. Just the kinda stuff I like to watch!
    The more component testers you build the better!!

      ljy17 : glad you like it. I’ve got a few more in mind.

      Electronics Old and New by M Caldeira I look forward to these videos.
      If I could request, a lithium battery internal resistance meter or a constant current adjustable dummy load would be great.

    Love it! A simple but effective piece of test equipment that doesn't cost a fortune. Thanks.....off to look at Part 2

    Excellent device, excellent video! It isn't clear in the schematic, but you mentioned in Part 2 that the input ground and output ground are the same in the booster module. If you got a module in which they were isolated, the meter wouldn't work.

    Lol. Love how the warning is completely obfuscated at the end. Awesome video thanks you very much! Will definitely be making one!
    Why bring the voltage down to 25v if its capable of more? Why not run it at max and be able to read a couple more values? I would think how quick and low current it is that should not hurt anything?
    Also anyone know of a booster that does 3.7-4.2 to ~100v? I cant seem to find even 60v+ without going to 10v input.
    Thanks!

    Thank you, I built this It works just fantastic.

    Need to build one for a microwave oven HV diode, it has a 3 volt fwd drop.

    Diody led też można testować. Można sprawdzić jakim napięciem zasilić taką diodę.

    With a bit of modification perhaps silicon or Schottky diodes too,good project worth building IMHO,regards Colin.

      you're probably better off with the diode checker on a multimeter for those as the resolution is better, but it will work.

    Thank you very much for making this video, Your very thoughtful presentation was very watchable for me (Perhaps, my wife would not like it) and understandable !!! I am going to watch all your videos and I hope to see a lot more. John, NS5Z

    I am so building this for my bench. Much faster then trying to use a curve tracer / octopus on the scope.

    • @electronicsoldandnew
      @electronicsoldandnew  6 років тому

      Yes it is and a curve tracer is quite a bit more expensive to get hold of.

    Nice and handy tester.
    Do you also have a video of the audio dummy load tester that you use for testing amplifiers ?
    I have searched in your video's but can't find it.

    You might want to be a little cautious about the means of connection, if you increase the test voltage supply. 100 volts might tingle.

    • @electronicsoldandnew
      @electronicsoldandnew  6 років тому

      Gar Suitor : yep, I know. If I do increase the test range to those levels I’ll put in safer sockets and definitely not remove the caps.

    • @harryshector
      @harryshector 6 років тому

      Grayhill clips mated to banana jacks might work. The conductive surfaces are still exposed, but you don't have to touch them with power applied.

    Its interesting, what modules are available on the market. Awesome tester!

    • @electronicsoldandnew
      @electronicsoldandnew  6 років тому

      Alfred Neumann : yes, in most cases it’s not worth building some modules as they are available at incredible low prices.

    Can it be also used for LED strips for testing?

    • @electronicsoldandnew
      @electronicsoldandnew  5 років тому

      Up to a number of leds in series that add up to about 30v, yes. For actual strips that have a number of leds in parallel, no. You need much more current for that.

    sir may i know the name of the booster module of up to 80vdc/125vc. i cannot find this module.

    • @electronicsoldandnew

      It's listed in the description of part 2 video:

    Great project! Building one for myself. I made a much better schematic 😉 with real images of the used components. Want me to send it to you?

    • @electronicsoldandnew
      @electronicsoldandnew  2 роки тому

      I don’t actually need it, but it’s a good document to have 😊 I’ve been using this tool for some time now.
