Esr meter and Flyback tester
When i started the monitor repairing business back in 1996, i have limited knowledge about testing equipment. The only equipments that i had is analog meter, digital capacitance meter and digital meter. The success repair rate for me is 7-8 out of 10. Some i really do not know what was the cause of the problem. The internet on that time was still new and i still can recalled the only technical website that i like to visit was the sam goldwasser website the well known technical repair writer. My free time i usually read technical books by some famous technical authors such as Homer L Davidson (my favorite author), Stephen J Bigelow, Art Morgalis, Robert L Goodman, John G Stephenson & Bob Cahill(microcomputer troubleshooting & repair by SAMS) and many more.
They are fantastic in sharing their knowledge in electronic repair. I always remembered a quote by jim kocmoud "knowledge is never knowledge until you share to someone who needs it". Recently i went to a local book shop to scan thru if there is any new books on electronic repair-i got a shocked after seeing a back cover mentioning Homer L davidson had passed away. I'm sad as he is one of my best repair guru in my life. The books that he had written was marvelous and i have to admit that i learned a lot from his experiences. This are the people that we have to salute because he never kept his repair secrets to himself, he revealed everything he knows about electronic repair. He passed on his knowledge to the next generation.
Back to the meter, i purchased bob parker's esr meter and lopt or flyback tester in the year of 1999 if i'm not mistaken. These two meters are a gem to me as both meters have solve a lot of tough dog problems for me. Then i proceed to buy another version of esr meter which is the Cap analyzer 88A. Both meters are so good in locate capacitor fault while still in circuit. The repair rate had shoot up to 9 and sometimes 10 out of 10. Realizing that meters can actually help you out in electronic repairing, more meters are bought such as muter regenerator crt tester, huntron tracker, atlas transistor tester, oscilloscope and etc.
If you want to be successful in electronic repairing line don't try to stop from investing on testing equipments. They can actually speed up your repair job and make fast money and the equipments can be pay back by itself in a very short time. If you are on budget try visit ebay.com to check out any cheap and good equipment for sale. You will be glad to have some good and reliable testing equipments by your side. To me testing equipments is just like another helper. I have no regret in investing so much on them. Well this is one of my secrets in electronic repairing.
