Trying to justify one of these for myself so trying to understand. A few questions:
1. Wouldn't you need to look at a much higher scope frequency to see any ringing?
2. On a typical solar inverter or SMPS would there typically be any place that large a probe would fit that would be worth while to see ringing?
That specifically was a dig at the CP-65 and clones of it.. yeah.. it rings at that low of a frequency x_x
I'd point you to watch this guy's review of it.. and yeah he kinda looks like he came from metallica lol
Is there going to be a CP2100A vs CP2100B comparison?
When somebody else will buy a cp2100a, why not.
To be honest, I´ve played with the thoughts, buying the 2100a again and compare it to the b version.
Or trying to tear it down, especially the clamp, because there must be "more electronics" in it.
You can hear a relay switching, also the ammount of the leads coming from the clamp part are too less - Something must happen in the clamp part before...
Boy, imagine, this thing costs only 200/350 bucks...

Yeah there are more inside the clamp, notice the clamp gets both positive and negative power supplied to it... all those little wires are on top of the main signal wire that is shielded itself
It's more of an active probe head unit... pretty amazing for the cost, they should come out with active scope probes too if they can make them anything like their diff and current probes
Heads up, I'm going to sell the 2MHz unit and I just got stock
Need to do a video of course, but will be offering a deal to my newsletter subscribers and Patrons and forum supporters shortly.
Should be able to beat other prices but that probably depends on your country.
Price will rise once my stock is gone, as MicSig gave me a deal on the batch of units.

Yes, I will be able to post a photo inside the clamp head tomorrow, it is indeed an active head design.

Wow nice
Branded? I could always use another, i'll take one off your hands
Cant wait to see inside that probe head
Branded?
No, not yet, it was a very significant cost to do that. Possibly in the future.

Wtf, how could they do it for this price....
Remember, I´ve bought an owon cp-05+ clamp for 170 bucks...
It looses in every case and cost only 30 less.

Yikes. No contest!
I can offer the 2MHz CP2100B for US$365, MicSig sell it for US$499 on Aliexpress and US$599 on Amazon. Got them in stock now. Going to add them to my store today.
Not sure if I'll bother to carry the CP2100A model?
BTW, this design was supposed to be 2.5MHz, and I have an early unit labels that. But they couldn't maintain this spec in production so dropped it to 2MHz.

My credit card is ready when you are!
I was about to buy one the other day on the AliExpress "Micsig official store", but the price was just a little too painful so I put it off again.
Nice! Waiting on a link now.

I was wondering what the deal was with that 2 vs 2.5 floating around
Mine are all labeled as 2.5 on the control box, did they change that to 2? Or is it they call all of them actually to be 2 MHz and ignore the label? What are your units labeled as?
Cool shots at the probe head, was wondering if they had any tuning parts inside it and how well the sensing halls were shielded
Interesting price point too, thats about the same as the best deal i saw on them. Picked one off the bay for 360 direct from shenzhen maybe a month ago.. was expecting a boat but the guy dhl expressed it which was pretty cool, he has sense raised his price to 400
There are some on AliExpress at a much lower price than the official store, but I just wasn't willing to risk getting a factory second.

My stock units are labeled 2MHz.

I can beat those Aliexpress prices, at least for the first batch of units.
Ordered.
ditto - I'm in Australia so my Internet sucks!
FYI, have just sent the link to my newsletter list of 10,000 people and Patreon, so the 50 units might not last long.
I got one, declined card, paid with paypal, then it said it didn't go through, then finally it said the order is processing so I can't submit it.
Hope for the best!

I don't think I've ever received the newsletter despite subscribing.

I got the newsletter email.... just not the money to get one :-(
Ordered, i'll be interested to compare it to my 2.5 ones
