Yes, I do sell and use scopes as well as other "test equipment" and that doesn't qualify me to offer advice based on personal experience ?
You're joking right ?
Coincidentally the unbiased opinion that you keep pushing aggressively in the T&M threads have a very high correlation with your financial interests.
Yes, it
might seem that way to you.
tautech, you are a vendor, not a regular opinionated user, so please act accordingly.
Correction: I am a vendor
and a regular opinionated user.
I do a small # of repairs in which I get to use the demo models I have and gain further experience and familiarity with models I stock. I don't and won't stock all Siglent models as some don't have a place in the NZ market. I endeavour to be aware of the technical strengths and failings of the products I represent and based on that try to make the best recommendations I can.
That's a privileged position that only a few members here can say that and some are much more knowledgeable than I.
My presence on this forum has little effect on any NZ sales I might gain and NZ is the only country I wish to sell in.
Fact is ,experience over the past decades of use, repair and investigation of several brand of scopes has ended up with me distributing Siglent, I openly display this in my signature and website link in my profile.
Before I became a distributor my pastime was repairing CRO's and a few DSO's, so gained quite some knowledge of the basic workings of a scope.
OK
few things popu what I may considere.
First high voltage
Second if scope can be hacked and get more out of it.
And third some have lan, or maybe USB to connect it to computer.
Three which have poppedup most are sigilent and rigol and owon
No order:
HV, how high? 100:1 probes are a good idea to have for anything over 150V. Err on the side of safety.
Nearly all modern DSO's have USB and LAN, datasheets will list the I/O's.
