In this video, we'll explore why Chinese transistor testers start to misread things over time and how to properly calibrate them.
Using the example of measuring capacitors and ESR, I'll show you what happens when the device overestimates the readings, and how a simple calibration restores accuracy.
If your tester shows an excessively high resistance even when shorted, it likely needs calibration. The process only takes a couple of minutes.

In this video, I'll show why Chinese transistor testers may start giving inaccurate readings over time—and how to easily calibrate them.
You'll see how a small ESR error can lead to incorrect conclusions when testing capacitors, and how quick calibration restores accuracy.
