- See the differences between these two popular ESR meters. Learn how to use them for in-circuit testing. What happens when you connect them to a charged capacitor? What other uses do they have?

Bought one of these PEAK analyzers from Anatek and got super fast delivery. Just 2 days and it was at my front door. Found several bad caps right away with it. Now I check any newly purchased caps for ESR BEFORE I ever install them. Saves future headaches!
Súper grand equip, tks Bob Parker
Fun video to watch and informative. Thanks for making it.
Entertaining Video, but also very good explanation of how to properly use and misuse these devices. I'm very thankful for your tutorial. I've watched others but I believe yours is one of the most definitive and it has helped me decide on a purchase.
RIP John Bachman who lived only another month after making this video, before a kid texting while driving cut him down. He was a great guy to collaborate with. 😢
That's horrible! May God Bless his memory.
@@johnnytacokleinschmidt515 Thank you. The first e-mail I received on Christmas Day 2013 was to tell me what had happened to him. It wasn't a very merry Christmas for me, that's for sure.
@@ZilogBob He seemed like a great guy in the video. I haven't seen any of his other work, but I see his approach to compare and contrast and offering his insight through that process. That's how to do it. Quite a loss I'm sure.
I'll bear this in mind when I'm tempted to multitask as we may at times be. Be well my friend and God Bless you!
@@johnnytacokleinschmidt515 Thanks for your thoughts. We collaborated on ESR meter and ring tester projects for a few years and it was a lot of fun. Take care my friend!
May god bless him😢
The ERS70 can also measure the capacity at the same time, that's the reason, why it discharges capacitors before measurement. This helps a lot to easily see if there are other capacitors in parallel. If the measured capacity is higher than the value expected than there are definitely more than one capacitor in parallel. This also helps to find out if there is one damaged capacitor. Just sum the stated values of all the capacitors in parallel up and compare it to your measured value. If it is way of, you have at least one bad capacitor.
This is the main reason why i think the ESR70 is better than the Blue ESR.
I was undecided between the two. You made a couple of great points. I think you just convinced me.
+xIIxRUExIIx -- You missed the point entirely about knowing if you are dealing with parallel caps
also, he didnt reset/calibrated the tester when changing to smd probes on the ESR70. [@8:30]
I have the older Peak Atlas ERS 70+ with the gold plated crocks that are not detachable. So I picked up a set of 4 pack sewing machine needles size 14 for a couple bucks (one and a half inches long). I was able to attach them to the crocks since they are squared on the one end and very sharp on the termination point, perfect for probing capacitors in circuit. The best part, I was able to zero out the meter for accurate in circuit testing, the firmware allowed extra play in the set up. Since I live in Canada I thought about sending it back to the manufacture for a firmware and detachable lead upgrade, but I did the math and felt it would be cheaper to replace than upgrade. So I have decided to stick with the above mentioned since it worked so well.
IN-CIRCUIT LEAK TEST - The little meter has some function there. Does this detect bad Caps in parallel?

Dear lord! I was enjoying this and then here comes the parrot in the background. she should have been placed on the outside by the parking lot.
"Oh Shit !" she says.. Perfect !
I was wondering when you were going to kick that receptionist the hell out of the room and thanks for not showing the part of the cursing/dragging her outside the shop. She's probably the one who had the big butt.
Should be able to use the ESR70 to measure battery internal resistance by using a capacitor in series
Did not work on a 14.4 battery pack.
11:30 Yep.
I have the peak and love it. There are alot of great esr meters on the market, be suspect of people who only insist on their brand or the chineese product worshipers. Do your own research. The technology used in these meters is old.
any new model esr meter?
We're trying to get the talking "Blue2" ESR meter to market but everything is working to stop it. ruclips.net/video/g2jSE0WSIwY/видео.html
just buy a cheap meter and then measure several new caps & write down the readings.
I then taped the chart to the backside of my meter so I know what to expect when testing caps.
Just look in the Datasheets there you will find exact ESR values @ 100 KHz of your capacitors.
I've added a remote control footswitch to the ESR60 (ESR70 is very similar): ruclips.net/video/CG6LllxGsC4/видео.html
bring back the original K-7204!!!!!!
Do you miss it flashing "EA" when you turn it on? 😁
You should compare these to the cheap Chinese ones , MESR-100 and the real cheap one 7 bucks ATMEGA328 its pretty damn good for 7 bucks. And it does more than just caps. And all testing so far suggest they are very accurate as well .
hahaha no.... did you know mesr is a cheap crappy copy of the peak? yeah... peak is pro grade, mesr is hobbyist who dont have money and dont care about the reading grade
..but remember I had a big butt... LOL.
best ones, or the ones with higher margins? I'd say that minus its cheap case, the MESR-100 v2 is a better ESR meter than these two and at fraction of the price
hahaha... no
did you know mesr is a cheap crappy copy of the peak? yeah... peak is pro grade, mesr is hobbyist who dont have money and dont care about the reading grade
esr70 is far more accurate than the anatek...
U bent wel cool of niet dan?
I don't understand why you absolutely want to perform measurements on battery pack with ESR70 as this instrument isn't tailored to do that?
More, you have specific warning against highly charged devices that could destroy the ESR70, just read the manual!
Please repeat everything once again.
Mesr-100 v2 wins hands down!
hahahahaha hell no

Lose the receptionist for crying out loud! Thumbs down!
He was a hard working man. Ran the entire company out of a small room off the back of his house. During the day, his daughter would help out with orders, and do clerical work while he replenished stock orders. The video concept was a very new idea for him at the time. Customers began asking for videos on assembly, and usage... and John thusly began shooting videos as a way to answer those demands. John was killed just one month after this video was shot; struck by a texting teenager while getting his mail, not 500 feet from where this video was made. John had plans to expand the video production, and I tried to help him (the videos were terrible, but the memories of working with John were some of my best). Have a nice day.
BBISHOPPCM's the world is full of ingrates. I was going to subscribe, thanks for the insight.
If you were going to the trouble to point out John's relevance by name, you could mention his last name. It would be respectful.
His name was John "Jay Bee" Bachman. Google him, you'll learn the story of his death and the aftermath.
BBISHOPPCM's World I will. I know a thank you isnt in order, but thanks for being respectful anyway. This past Jan I had a chance to stand right on the brink and turn around and walk from it. Leaving this life in an unplanned fashion is a gift. Unfortunately it's worse for the family usually. Regards.
Why do you have an unrelated phone conversation competing with your demonstration. Unprofessional!!
therealnightwriter A very intelligent reply!! You really told me!!!!
I agree with Steven. If you're going to do a video representing a company, put in a little effort and do it right. therealnightwriter, I hope you're just a random jerk, and not an employee of AnaTek!
Thank you Paul!
+Steven Zara The guy has a LAB COAT! So don't you try to tell ME he's not professional!
it's a mom and pop.. who cares !
It's all BS
what is bullshit is the existance of your knowledge
