I had to do a double take.  During the lab analysis, 37 minutes into the video,
the voltage measurements are being done with a high-dollar multi-meter..
one of the red freebies from Harbor Freight.. |
Yup. Got a few of those laying around too.
A couple of them are permanent fixtures
on my alternator drive-stand.
The ability to detect, quantify and display
electrical phenomena has become so easy
that even the least expensive tools
can perform an order of magnitude better
than the best-we-knew-how-to-do in 1970.
The down-sides for these $low$ tools
are mechanical robustness and environmental
longevity. I've pitched perhaps a dozen
over they years . . . and picked up
replacements on the next trip to HF!
Back when I was doing weekend seminars,
my first question to the room was, "How
many of you have multimeters?" I then
made hand-outs to everyone who didn't
hold up their hand!
Barber Co Rural Fire is having a busy
morning . . . fire-barn just east of my
house emptied out about an hour ago.
Heard radio responses from two other
houses. Winds 22mph/G38 . . . tanker
trucks are step'n and fetch'n . . .

In the interest of creative evolution
of the-best-we-know-how-to-do based
on physics and good practice.
