[Amps] Sencore

[Will Matney]

All,

I have a quick question about why does Sencore LCR meters sell for the high price they do compared to a HP, ESI, or GenRad meter? To me, a Sencore is a toy compared to those, but people I've seen on ebay spend way more for one of the Sencores. Is it they're not educated in what real precision equipment used in large labs is, or does Sencore blow a bunch of smoke up say like TV techs butts with ads saying they're the top of the line when they aren't? I have a few pieces of Sencore stuff here, and internally they don't come close to the construction and precision of the ones I mentioned. Whats up with all those folks spending big bucks for a piece of equipment like that?

Just wondering,

Will
