Proster LCR Meter - Capacitance Resistance Inductance Digital LCR Multimeter with LCD Over-Range Display

I needed to characterize some inductors and capacitors I had on hand, and came across this meter at a very attractive price. It has been working fine with the capacitors. Many of my inductors are from a grab bag, tiny coils in the single-digit uH range, and the meter hasn't worked as well with these -- I think test lead inductance is getting in the way. I probably haven't figured out the best way to measure these. The meter seems to be able to measure larger inductances, but I don't have a way of verifying accuracy at the moment.The meter is easy to use and has large, easy-to-read digits. There is nothing obviously fragile about it, but from reading the instructions and some of the reviews, I'm going to be careful with it. I think the inputs are probably not very well protected -- there shouldn't ever be voltage applied to them. In any event, it is cheap enough to be disposable if something happens.

Tested R-C-L meter and compared it to my existing DVM Ohmmeter and Capacitor Meter. Measures Resistors and Capacitors with good agreement. I was able to measure the Inductance of a mechanical relay coil, but I don't have a previously measured Inductor for comparison (I don't use many Inductors in my circuits.)R-C-L Meter is a good addition to my electronic measure tools and is worth the price. It will be very useful in matching the values of components in applications where very close values of R and C discrete parts are needed. Sometimes the ability to match component values is more important that absolute accuracy of the measured value of a component.

This meter doesn’t feel like a high-quality Fluke product, but then it doesn’t have that high Fluke price. The unit is a little bigger than I imagined, so if storage space is a premium, keep that in mind. It comes with a nice little storage case and a few accessories. It should serve well and last long under light use.

I just received the Proster Digital LCRvTester this afternoon. I ran it through it's paces, testing the LCR functions and the semiconductor diode function and it passed with flying colors. Tests were easy to perform and results were reasonably accurate. For the price this LCR meter is well worth buying. Yes, you can pay ten times or more for a fancier instrument. However for a large number of uses this meter is all you need. If you have a real need for all the bells and whistles, go ahead , but you probably will find yourself grabbing this one most of the time.

Bought this meter to measure capacitors values .The meter works great for test capacitors it also checks resistors and inductors.Nice meter great price and gets the job done.

I purchased this meter to measure Henries on Guitar pickups. Works as expected. Display is large and numbers are very readable. The only major issue with the unit is the On/Off switch. I tried putting the unit in the case and noticed that it was not too difficult to turn the unit on inside the case which led to a dead battery. The switch is a push on/ push off and is too easy to activate (very weak spring). The case is also too small to hold the unit AND probes. I liked that it contained very short clip-on probes for measuring capacitance. The probes are one piece. They don’t allow you to swap out different tips like other meters.Overall I am satisfied with my purchase.

A high quality LCR Tester for it's price,,nice design,,robust as well,,works exceptionally

The meter is accurate down to the first digit, which is obviously not the best accuracy money can buy, but for the price, it's pretty good quality. This LCR meter is a great thing to have if you're into electronics.
