The only thing is money is tight but I will do a bit more research into what's best for my pocket and career. Cheers for the help mate
I appreciate any advice mate especially if a slap round the face is needed I'm not one for expensive phones I have a contract that's the only reason I have an iphone. I am looking at a megger mft 1552 now second hand but 12 month calibration cert with it. Cheers for the advice
£250 and calibrated. snap his hand off. only thing i don't like about the megger is the case. mine's been transferred to a flight case with plenty of space for leads etc.
i use my old megger case for my smaller test gear.

Only a matter of time before there's an app for that.an I phone wont give you a Ze reading anytime soon
where did you get it from mateFor £150 look for a Meterl 61557. Does everything you would need to test. I still use mine that i got 3 years ago for £170

ebay's a good place to look, just don't get carried away with the bidding, there will always be another one along
Picked up a 61557 for £75 without leads, waited a couple of weeks and a new set of Metrel leads for £25
that is funny people say they have no money to buy things. but they have a new iphone with a contact for 30 to 60 pounds a mouth
I have an iPhone yes, but I also have a baby boy who came a long unexpectedly just as I brought it and I pay 28 quid a month. Don't understand why your chipping in with negativity at least the other advice was constructive.
Robbalaar86 don't take it personally but in my view you say you want a tester but don't have much money yet as I have said countless times on this forum if you want to be good at what you do you need to be professional and discaplined and its down to priorities yes by all means get a Socket & See led indicator tester then when you have a problem and don't think you will get much help if you say red or green instead of a Zs of ?.?? ohms.
Now yes we all no doubt would like a nice I Phone,I Tablet, Top of the range car,Holidays abroad but remember its the tools in the bag and the tester in the box that pays for all of it but if you go cheap then is it any wonder if you have problems
I appreciate that old timer thing is you have it easy then it changes now I'm not having it so easy and wish I'd never entered into a contract for my phone however the rest of my money goes on rent council tax and my little boy so I am a little tight and don't have that much to throw around we all make mistakes. The thread was to ask you older guys your advice on testers not financial advice on my personal wealth. I appreciate constructive advice.
socket & see = the fisher price of the test instrument world.
;-)
I'm going to trade my Fluke in for a set and the kids to do my testing for me.
