Hi All, does anyone use a Logic Probe, showing high, low and alternating levels? Is it practically useful and are there differences between brands and individual tools? Apparently the circuit is quite easy, so why are there such differences in pricing? DIY HP Item What do you recommend? Andre ... such a GURU? | ||||

Was given one once as a gift about thirty years ago. Still in the original packet, never used. I would recommend an oscilloscope Even one of those little thirty dollar toy oscilloscopes will tell you a lot more than a logic probe. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/DSO138-2-4-TFT-Digital-Oscilloscope-Acrylic-Case-DIY-Kit-SMD-Soldered-Pip-B-Jf/133414981530?hash=item1f10270f9a:g:IBYAAOSwdoJbTAib Cheers, Tony. |

No doubt about Osci´s! But such a tool seems interesting as a link between a Multimeter and an Osci, easier to fire on. Just for comparison: For desoldering you can use THIS or THIS or in between simply THIS I usually prefer the way in the middle for easy issues. So anyone doing the same with probes? Those cheap handy Osci´s are crap, all of them! Andre ... such a GURU? | ||||
