If you enjoy repairing or building amplifiers, a high-pot. is highly 
useful.    It can be used for:  
 testing vacuum components such as tubes (seals, loose gold, fil./grid 
probs.), relays and capacitors;  measuring  rectifier PIV; checking 
insulation, corona test, and for guidance in resettling loose gold 
melt-balls in 8877s, 3CX800A7s and the like.
