afternoon everyone, i have found a megger 1553 new with kewtech light and socket adapter kit, £500, does this sound like a good deal? i currently use a mft 1552 but it isnt actually mine and now they are wanting back.

how does that price sound?

1st rate for customer service i've heard, and the comments above seem to corroborate that.

the 1553 is now cheap because it has now been replaced by the 1700 and I seen the demonstration by the Megger rep and he kept going on that he had the Beta version so even when they were rolling it out they were still tweaking at the software which makes me think they forced themselves into rushing it to market and now it come back and bitten them in the bum. I dont know why they do this people would have been happy if they put their hand up and said we have a problem here.

I bought my 1553 2 years ago for £640 i took that the calibration started on the date marked on the calibration certificate and got it calibrated a year later only thing is and I have mentioned this before like the tester hate the carry case so I bought a Fluke one instead
