Hello all...
Was hoping someone could make some suggestions for good, reliable capacitor tester. Is there one out there that can accurately test and provide information about a capacitor such as (capacitance (duh), ESR, Impedance, leakage, etc.) In a different thread, I voiced concern about not being able to accurately identify what specs an old/vintage capacitor had. It occurred to me that if I had a way to comprehensively test an 'original'; identifying the replacement would be cake walk. (I found and bought a few 'general' testers out on eBay and they work OK to provide basic information, but as I mentioned, looking for something that can truly and thoroughly test and measure a capacitor.
