Peak Electronic Design discount
I like many others, I suspect, have discovered the little pocket testers from Peak Electronic Design, based in Derbyshire. I use their LCR meter a lot as well as their component checker. Not the cheapest, but definitely very clever, and robust.
If anyone is thinking of buying, I saw on EEVBLOG that they currently have a 20% discount offer on all orders over £30. (Use the code EEVBLOG20 at checkout). Not sure how long this will last. I have absolutely no links to Peak Electronics other than being a very satisfied customer. Their after-sales service is exemplary. Reasonably priced repairs and upgrades, and proper telephone support if you get stuck. Happy to recommend a good British company!

Re: Peak Electronic Design discount
Thanks for this - I used the LCR meter extensively at my last job so this could be a good excuse to get one for my home workshop.

Re: Peak Electronic Design discount
I've had my eye on the ESR meter for some time. They do look like handy little devices.

Re: Peak Electronic Design discount
Thanks for the heads up. We were just about to put down some cash for a few UTP05's for network testing.

Thank you Jeremy, I have used an ESR70 for some years and have just purchased an LCR45 saving £12 thanks to you.

Re: Peak Electronic Design discount
If you want an LCR, pay a very few quid extra and get the new LCR45. It has selectable test frequencies and impedance display. I've just ordered one.

Re: Peak Electronic Design discount
Cheers Jeremy. I have just ordered an ESR70 and the price is still £72 inc. postage. Considering a used one just sold on eBay for £71, that's a great deal.
