    It needs to be constantly calibrated like a simple ESR tester that has a constant zero drift. It is unable to measure low ESR values due to its poor software implementation, especially when it comes to ceramic capacitors. The LCR Pro1 tweezers do not have such problems.

    It happens in different ways, it all depends on the circuit design. Here is another measurement result: Ceramic capacitor ESR = 0.000 Ohm. Complete nonsense.

    We see a cheap material used in electronics for boards. Poorly finished edges. This is always the case when working with a hand file. The contact points are tinned with solder. Over time, the brass plate and solder corrode. This can be clearly seen in the photo.

    The measuring part of the tweezers consists of two fiberglass boards and bolted brass plates. Such a terrible design solution requires constant calibrations in order to somehow keep the tweezers in working order. The same can be said about the display. Archaic in size and weight, apparently...

    The HB-14 used the cheapest microcontroller with limited capabilities. The developers have solved all the negative aspects at the expense of the poor controller, since its memory was not enough for everyone. The PR people of this office did their best to embellish this toy as best they could...

    Once upon a time, this toy had a maximum frequency of 10 kHz. The manufacturer naturally did not have enough brains to make 100 kHz right away. In fact, measuring at this frequency is associated with certain difficulties. But the Canadian engineers were able to solve them immediately. Perfectly...

    HB-14 is a primitive home-made product that has not reached a decent level of measurement quality. An unfinished program, a lack of knowledge and practical experience among developers, the use of cheap Chinese components, a terrible assembly with poor-quality soldering and unwashed flux...

    In my opinion, everyone understands this. I can only say that the HB-14 tweezers ceased to exist for a number of reasons that I described earlier. That's good. It was a toy for schoolchildren. The next clone, HB-15, costs twice as much. But in fact it is the same raw product. All this is clearly...

    A logical question arises. Why sell a raw product to people? The measurement results are terrible, the numbers on the display are unstable, the display spontaneously flips, the contact is not stable, constant calibrations are needed.

    Why is it so hard to find ceramic capacitor kits that have a 3.3pF in it?

    The quality of ceramic capacitors depends on the type of dielectric. https://www.electronics-notes.com/articles/electronic_components/capacitors/ceramic-dielectric-types-c0g-x7r-z5u-y5v.php
