Thanks for the info have you found the tester easy to use?

For me it was a bit of figuring out to at first but now I find it simple to use. I personally really like it in all honesty, never really had any problems with it and have had it for the best part of a year.

As above.
The bag could be bigger, and it's a shame that R1 + R2 and r1 +r2 test can't be conducted using the 3 pin plug lead.

Agreed, I use the Kewtec plug adapter.

Will the leads fit into the Kewtec adapter without the probes on?

Yes, it will. (Post didn't allow me with just a "Yes"! Too short, minimum 6 characters).

I may have to invest in one.

I may have to invest in one.

But the kit that has all the other adapters for different type of lamp holder bases too. Around a hundred quid from out test meter sponsor.

Will need a much bigger bag.

I realise that this is quite an old post .... but yes, I have been getting some very odd Insulation Resistance readings. Did you find a solution?

How old are your test leads? how charged was/is your battery?

 

[Spock]

The leads are a year old. I'm charging the battery at the moment but it was showing about 1/2 charge I guess when I was testing earlier. If its as simple as a low charge then I'll be delighted.

 

[Octopus]

I reackon that a new set of leads may be in order. My last set lasted about 10 months!

 

[Spock]

thanks. Bit of a pain but you're probably right.

I had the same problem with mine. Found a loose connection inside connector/probe end of one of the test leads. Re-soldered connection, good as new. No problems since.

 

[Spock]

Ok - will try that idea out before buying new ones - thanks

 

[Former Sponsor TM]

thanks. Bit of a pain but you're probably right.
