Shed clearout, old test meters

[Andy78]

Anyone able to make use of these ?
Having a clearout and have an old insulation/continuity tester and a loop/rcd tester. Alphatek 1601 and Metrel 2120. The Metrel has a broken screen glass but functions.

Maybe good for showing the basics to a trainee or apprentice ?

Free to anyone willing to pay postage.

They are of no use to me and haven't seen the light for many years. I hate to chuck usable things.

be useful for a trainee to practice with.

With the Alphatek set on 1000V what reading would you expect for good insulation resistance?

Upper range is stated as 4000Mohms. With leads in and separate it cycles through to 4500Mohms before displaying OL.

good bit of kit ( as the actress said, pulling off the bishop's underpants)

My nephew is just starting out and would love these. Would it be possible for him to have them if no other takers?

DAM and BLAST, I was hoping for the insulation resistance tester.
Would it be powerful enough to get a lazy teenage boy out of bed before noon?

Funny, thought that would have the opposite effect!!

Also, if I went out looking for one of those, it would make my wife get mad.
