I see where the D.S. meter works well and gets great reports but i must

I would scrape up the extra $ and get a Capacitor Wizard . Its got an
analog meter and beeper . The 4AA batterys last a long time . I know
many are on a budget but the luxury of the Cap Wizard is worth the extra
$ . maybe these show up on ebay by now ?

Do you own either of these instruments, or on what basis do you make your
recommendation?

I have the Bob Parker one and it is perfect for the job.
