Am new to ESR Meters so have been searching the Internet
and Forums for info.

Appreciate comments from others that have been using ESR
Meters as to what features would be included in an
"Ideal ESR Meter".


** For a start, all the ones that Bob Parker included in his design.

Being able to test the capacitance value would be an advantage, but doing so reliably when the part is still in circuit is near impossible.

Be aware that the ESR meters intended for service work are only good for electrolytic caps ( regular aluminium and tantalum ) and interpreting the readings correctly requires significant operator knowledge and/or a similar electro to compare with.
