Hi,

I've used the LC IIB for several years now and it works great (unless you forget to shut it off overnight) ;^)

Folks 
In process of upgrading my electronics lab, I am building some 
est equipment kits to replace LCR meters and other equipment 
hat has hit the great bit bucket in the sky. 
This company has some very high capability kits at costs of 
 1/10 commercial products. The LCRZ meter in particular 
ppears very impressive. Cost is reasonable, especially for 
 multiple frequency LCR ( I used a Agilent/HP multiple frequency 
nit which was > $18,000 not including fixturing, and a Quadritech 
ultiple frequency unit that was ~ $2,000). Only leaded components 
eed be installed, all SMD's are premounted. Most handheld LCRM's 
nly give a test frequency of 1kHz. The RF universal frequency 
ounter may also be of interest to our more advanced members.

Another kit that will only perform LC measurements is from AADE for 
bout half the cost of the LCRZ kit. NOTE: will not measure electrolytic 
apacitors. Also a leaded component kit.

Speaking of Agilent, they have just introduced a hand held unit 
hat appears capable of similar performance, for about 
ouble the cost of the LCRZ unit.
