1.It is a series resistor inside capacitor, using 100kHz to remove the impedance 1/(2*pi*F*C).2.The impedance become small, and then measure the true series resistor value.,Using this , measure the capacitor is / damaged or good in condition.3. ESR meter only applies less than 15mV DC or to on a good capacitor, as a use it as in circuit test.4.During repairing TV, LCD, Audio board, etc. in circuit testing the capacitor is good or not.5. Dual terminal, for fast and easy inspect general capacitor or resistor, a ESR table for fast check.Range Accuracy(After zero, Refresh Time(Manual Mode)tested with 1,10,100R Auto mode take 0 to 2s, more timeresistor) depends on capacitance value.0.000 to 1.000R 1%+2Digit -0.4s1.000 to 10.00R 1%+1Digit -0.4s10.00 to 100.0R 2%+1Digit -0.4sAccuracy: Up to 1% (detail on above table)Wide Measurement Range: 1uFHigh Resolution: 4 digit, or 0.001Ohm @ 1 rangeMeasuring voltage: Less than -40mV (TESTING VOLTAGE)External Power: 5V Mini USBOperating Current: 0.02ABattery: 2 * AA 1.5V Battery (not included)Battery Life time: 80 Hourssize:14.5 * 8 * 3cmMaterial:ABS + electronic componentscolour:blackPackage Contents:1 * Capacitance Meter2 * Test Clips1 * ManualOnly the above package content, other products are not included.Note: Light and different displays may cause the color of the item in the picture a little different from the real thing.
