I bought one of Fluke's early scope meters on ebay. I had to replace the battery and it works great. Trouble is I have used it once when I built a DC Dimmer to control my heated vest on my motorcycle. I never even installed that project but the scope was invaluable in trimming the circuit for the optimum wave pattern.
I think that project cost me $800.00. I actually bought a pre made controller that was much smaller, weatherproof and easily mounted on the bike. It cost me $65.
So how do you actually save money by do it yourself kits?
Anyone need a portable scope?
