    2. It does not meet the requirements of col. CMS . "connector for an external power supply, with the option of disconnecting battery power after connecting?".
    You can do something like this on semiconductors. Diode in a row with a battery. It is enough that the external supply voltage will be the same or slightly lower (diode conduction threshold) than the battery voltage. It can also be higher. The current flowing through the diode will be very small. The schottky diode has a small conduction voltage which will reduce the loss of battery life.

    Hello, I promised to boast 6F22 batteries purchased on Ali ... For comparison, I bought a 6F22 Tronic Energy 200 battery in Lidl, as the name suggests :) the battery has a declared 200mAh and the final voltage after charging 8.72V. The lithium batteries from Ali .. have declared 900mAh and the dedicated dedicated packs load them up to 8,31V, I did not find any problems with the power supply of my equipment, although I remember from the Psion computers that this voltage caused problems. The pouch has no cable only protruding pins (American) which in cooperation with the grommet on our system is not convenient. greetings

    I measured those from Lidl. They have a lot of parameters. The best ones were 165mAh, the worst 120mAh. And they fell down quite quickly. The same applies to other batteries of this brand.

    Hello Eurotips , what do you think is in a lithium battery like no inverter ?, maybe two liters in a row, but I check it after the discharge characteristics, if two in a row is a balancer and probably has a protection against discharging. From the economic side, a good company, the battery has 500mAh of capacity and costs more than 10 zlotys, my purchased batteries have if you trust information 900mAh and considering the cost of the cartridges cost me 30 zlotys. The bill is simple, after 2 charges the battery costs less than the battery. I have just 4 rechargeable batteries and 3 devices powered them, I'm not interested in free Sundays and maybe as the unions are planning free Saturdays, I will have electricity in my equipment :) . The other ecological side also looks better than utilization after each discharge of the battery. greetings

    Hello :) I know that the capacity does not add up, 900mAh is the capacity declared by the manufacturer on the battery housing. I need to check it by charging 1 / 10th of the capacity as I find the time :) . It is shockingly a lot, but I hope the producer does not lie, his AA batteries have very good opinions, as far as 6F22 I have not found any tests yet. greetings

    ... And the most important thing, the tester needs 7.2V to work properly ...
    These data are not strictly accurate. In his technical data I read that the power supply for proper operation is 5-12V . I used a 6V / 1.3Ah battery and during the test it shows approx. 6.6V and the tester, of course, works properly.

    A colleague talking about a gel aka? I have somewhere a small "jelly" from a Chinese flashlight, probably with 300 mAh, even with a simple bridge for charging from the network. I looked just a moment and the size would fit, only in these Chinese quickly self-discharge occurs, so I do not know if it pays off. For me, the tester is still aging - waiting for some hardware failure. :)

    :!: . Charging from the network , no harm to health and tester.

    Hehe wrote but I would rather not do it anyway I do not remember exactly what voltage there was or was 6V or maybe less than 5V after charging. Probably the best solution is a battery with a telephone with inverter and charger if, someone has everything in stock. Due to the fact that you do not have to open the tester to replace / recharge. I wonder how such a solution would work in the multimeter because I use more often and of course longer time with the indicator of a discharged battery. I think you will have to order several converters and chargers for Li-ion, because the old battery would of course be found.

    I mean about 6V / 1.3Ah removed from the cash register (I've already written about it in this thread), because it did not issue a lot of receipts (the power needed for printing is about 2A). In this tester it will serve for many years (in case of recharging up to 7V from the laboratory power supply) and if not, I will post the next one. I have them on bundles after exchange at the cash registers. The fact that the tester works properly with the voltage of 66.V being displayed during the test undermines the thesis that:

    . Fact @eurotips "wrote about" your copy "and a copy of it was uneven.I wrote about the copy received from the" electrode shop "without any modifications, so maybe both (me and @eurotips) wrote the truth.

    My tester has been damaged after more than 2 years of use. The screen with information about testing the element takes much longer than usually even several seconds and then there is information about the detection of the cell - a function that nobody has discovered here ;) Each time the same, regardless of the inserted element. Actually on pins 1 and 2 all the time there is such a voltage. LCR-T4 electronics components tester ATMega328 - Test and Review LCR-T4 electronics components tester ATMega328 - Test and Review As I used it almost every day, I immediately felt the lack of it and now I have to buy something else quickly. I saw that newer versions scroll with the Zener measurement and color lcd in the thread? Could someone recommend something tested? The best option is to buy alllegro. Thank you. Possibly someone may have bought it with the possibility of reselling it very willingly.

    There are newer versions, an encoder, a meter and a frequency generator, DS1820 support and a voltmeter. They are on Allegro, but shipping from China anyway.

    In China, you can also find a version that tests logic gates, optocouplers, operational amplifiers, etc. In auto mode, it even detects an element model. For the element test, however, you must enter the model manually. The tester has a database of items in memory. The rest of the type transistors, thyristors, diodes (zenerki up to 50V), etc. automatically. It is a pity that it costs PLN 160.

    From the series "Pole is able" ... yesterday, when I bought other Atmega 328P for other purchases. Before the exchange I unsuccessfully tried to rip the software. After replacing the prock it turned out that the soft one does not fit in one of the themes - the effect was a blank screen. I read and it turned out that I have some older version with quartz 8Mhz. The forum came with help: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/lcr-t4-mtester-v2-07-lcr-meter-black-block-issue/, where friends shared a soft match for my tester. I tried to upload softy from https://yadi.sk/d/yW8xa5NJgUo5z, but the Cyrillic alphabet itself ... Changing prock banal -1 min.

Topic summary

The LCR-T4 electronics components tester based on the ATMega328 microcontroller is a versatile, low-power device powered by a 9V battery, drawing 12-15mA during measurement and 20nA in sleep mode. It automatically detects component types and lead configurations, measuring parameters such as resistance, capacitance (up to 47,000µF), inductance, diode voltage drop, transistor type and pinout, and ESR. Calibration involves shorting the test leads and using a known capacitor above 100nF. The tester supports testing of discrete components including resistors, capacitors, diodes, bipolar and field-effect transistors, and thyristors, though it struggles with integrated LM series voltage regulators due to their complex internal structures. Accuracy is generally sufficient for amateur and workshop use, with some noted measurement deviations, especially in low resistance and inductance readings. The device features a white LCD display, with some users comparing it to yellow LCD variants and color display models with built-in batteries. The ZIF socket is a known weak point, prone to contact issues and limited to thin leads; users recommend alternative housings and socket modifications for durability. The ribbon cable connecting the display is fragile and non-replaceable separately, requiring careful handling. The tester is available as a DIY kit with open-source firmware and as ready-made units, purchasable from Chinese suppliers and local Polish sellers, with prices around $30 or 25-40 PLN depending on housing and shipping. Shipping damage to displays has been reported due to insufficient packaging, prompting suggestions for improved protection. Firmware variations exist, affecting features like contrast adjustment and component recognition. The device is highly regarded for its ease of use, broad functionality, and value for money, making it a popular gadget among electronics hobbyists. Community discussions include suggestions for further development, housing designs, and integration of the elektroda.pl logo for uniqueness.
