The interface is convenient and reasonably intuitive for such small instrument - the brief look at supplied "menu tree" card and you got it (e.g., the "joystick control" has direct shortcuts to common measuring modes and parameters setup.
It is very accurate compared to other LCR devices I have attempted to use. Actually the competitors don't even come close
I have also found it good for sorting components that are in cut tape, but not clearly marked. I have a pile of resistor values where the printing on the tapes was illegible. I can use the Smart Tweezers to poke through the tap and contact the component to take a measurement without removing it from the carrier.
Original review:
I design high performance analog circuitry for a living and have worked designing electronics for 20 years now. I work on the highest performance circuitry in the world. I've recommended these tweezers to friends in the industry, and right now I am wondering if I steered others in the wrong direction.
I loved these tweezers for the first 6 months, really makse testing surface mount components fast and easy. But when I went to use the tweezers recently, they would not turn on. I checked the cables and charger, tried a few different options, other device that uses the same charging port charge just fine. I get nothing on the display, just completely dead. More than a little disappointing given I have only had them 6 months.
The company has no information on service, warranty or otherwise. I sent an e-mail, and got no response. Maybe they are small and on vacation? I am going to try and call, but thus far it seems the customer service is non-existent from the manufacturer, and appears that it is going to be a pain for me. Unless/until the company responds, I will be giving this product 1 star and I do not recommend that you spend close to $300 on this item when service is so questionable. Hopefully the company won't continue to be MIA and will stand behind the product they are selling. I will update my review with new information.
I contacted the seller about the case. I'm not sure if it was brittle from cold weather or it was my fault in mishandling, but it broke within a couple months of having the tweezers. The sellers acted right away and sent me a brand new one. Great customer service.
