Here's something that may interest some folks here. I just got my new
Tonghui TH2821A LCR Meter, and I'm starting to become quite impressed.
After some screwups due to a discharged internal battery and not reading
the instructions, it is starting to give some really impressive results.
5 digits resolution on 1000uf caps, 4 digits on iron-core inductor,
miscellaneous resolution on 30k resistors (I haven't figured out how to
measure resistance yet, but it should be very easy
Here's the eBay info:
LCR RCL LC Meter TH2821A inductance Capacitance 10kHz
Price : US $164.93
Shipping : $25.00
Item : 320492041898
It can measure 6 basic parameters: inductance L, capacitance C,
resistance R, impedance Z, dissipation factor D and quality factor
Q.
It has measurement accuracy of 0.3% and 4-bin sorting.
Applied complete 5-terminal measurement configuration solves problem
of measurement for equivalent series resistance and capacitor with
small dissipation that other portable LCR meters can't solve. It can
replace general low-frequency LCR meter.
Only portable LCR meter at home
Large LCD display
Measurement frequency up to 10kHz
Basic accuracy: 0.3% with resolution of 0.01%
5-side measurement technology to provide accurate measurement of ESR
and loss
Sweep Clear Function
battery and external power supply power supply
fourth gear sorting
Measurement Signal
Signal Frequency : 100Hz 120Hz 1KHz,10KHz
OutPut Impedance : Dependent on range
Test level : 0.3Vrms
Measurement display range
R : 0.0001Ohm ~ 99.999Ohm
C : 0.01pF ~ 9999uF
L : 0.01uH ~ 9999H
D,Q : 0.0001 ~ 9.9999
?% : -999.99% ~ 999.99%
Comparator
Comparator : 4bins: NG, P1, P2, P3 with beeper alarm
You can also get smd tongs:
LCR METER-SMD/CLIP,TWEEZERS,TH26029 FOR TONGHUI,
US $36.00
Item : 350502463639
The manual is dated November 2005, 1st Edition Rev 1.0.0

You can also get the TH2821B, which goes to 1KHz
Item: 350501591362
Price: US $136.00
The only problem so far is they shipped a 220VAC adapter, which does not
work on 120VAC. After some discussions, they shipped a universal 100-
240VAC adapter which should work anywhere. If you want one, be sure and
tell them to ship the universal 100-240VAC adapter. But they are very
nice to deal with and you should have no problems.
For the performance and price, I don't think you can beat this anywhere.
I especially like being able to measure ESR of large electrolytics, since
I have a lot of eBay boat anchors that need some care.
So far the performance is excellent. I'll post if I come across any
surprises.

Mike
