[Boatanchors] cap testers?

[Eugene Hertz]

Hello all.  Been thinking about getting a cap checker (yes, I know you can do it with a battery and a resistor and a clock with a second hand) and I've been thinking about any of the heathkit models, also the tel-ohmike (to-x) and lastly, I came across an sencore lc53 which also tests inductances.  The sencore seemed interesting. I probably don't need incredible precision, but I can tell you it was reassuring when I connected a 'lytic to it and it confirmed for me that it was bad (I just spend a few days desoldering it and I sure hoped my troubleshooting led me to the right component).

Seemed easy to use.  I also saw there are other sencore modes, lc75, and even higher. Any appreciable difference between these that I should care about?

Any other makes/models I should consider and look out for?

thanks!
Eugene
