That is a nice one that is!

It's got 10 turn pots, not that digital encoder rubbish There's another one, but the price is a bit on the high side (as all the other stuff from that seller too):https://www.ebay.de/itm/TOELLNER-TOE-8752-Dual-Power-Supply-2x-0-32VDC-2x-0-5A-320W/254880538392I used to have this particular model (8752, 2x32V) at a former job and I really liked it.

I was sleeping and something woke me up. My box fan had shut down and restarted. Clocks flashing. We are having one hell of a wind storm here. Scanner is going nuts with trees down. As I was typing this power dipped again but came back up. Have to wait for my router to reboot. And I log on here and see all that blue tossed in boxes. I r sad. If that smaller pallet were to be delivered to me you would never hear from me again because I would have died and gone to heaven.
I need a NASA mug😁

Aside from the cumulative earth leakage currents from a few SMPSs, you're quite likely to see excessive earth leakage on something you put on the bench to repair. An old Y capacitor made by everybody's favourite X & Y capacitor manufacturer comes to mind as an obvious example.

One other thing, I reckon if theey were to appear at the Med mansion, you'd be better off doing a swap of flats with your downstairs neighbour, otherwise with that amount of extra weight, you'd both be sharing the ground floor flat for sure

However, there's a husband/wife and 4 noisy kids (one an infant). I don't think they would fit in my place too well plus they would be above me. Nope.

I landed the HP 5302A for under $100If you're not blinded by the hp logo these are decent counters and they don't come in fugly cases.

Anybody on the east side of Canada looking for 1 ton of misc TE ? the auction is sitting at 200$ right now.https://www.gcsurplus.ca/mn-eng.cfm?snc=wfsav&sc=enc-bid&scn=382932&lcn=531590&lct=L&srchtype=&lci=It's a good thing I'm 12h away. A little bit closer and I would probably had to rent a van to bring everything back home.
I have a 10mA on my bench (together with a 6A fuse), but only for the DUT. Hardly ever trips when not needed. But I agree, with the full bench on it it would trip too often.
That does not quite match a HP 5314A. Same number of digits (7) but no level control on 2nd input and no ratio. More of a RF counter than universal. The 520MHz range is plus but let down by 7 digits and needs the TCXO to be useful.A 5315/6 A/B is miles ahead of the Fluke with 8 digits, reciprocal counting more functions, but only 100MHz.The Fluke would be an option if you wanted a small counter for both RF and very basic function counting but other than cost a 3 input universal like a later Racal or 5316A/B with the 1GHz option would be a better counter overall.
The problem with these counters is a distinct lack of digits
