Review on Honeytek A6013L Capacitor Tester: Accurate and Efficient Results by Bob Novitsky

Revainrating 4 out of 5

$15 Winner on Capacitance Meters

Mine just arrived today. I think the reason for the identical probe connections is that the wires are short. My instructions say you can measure "inside the circuit". So if you move the probe to the other side you can get closer to the board without having to put the probe down on the board and hold it while placing pins. Just a guess. Also, I didn't receive a battery with mine. I tested a few lids that I knew were good and a few that I knew were bad. 100% correct so far. I won't go into what some reviewers say about its shortcomings, what it can and can't do. He might not tell me if the cap is good for any application, power or whatever, but he will definitely tell me if it's bad. And that's all I wanted and all I could ask for for $15.

Pros
  • Easy Setup
Cons
  • Quality
