@masonga1995 3 жыл бұрын
36 for my work "lab". I think the fire extinguisher is the real MVP of my score here, sometimes I still wonder how I get anything fixed! Subjective, but I think dedicated component testers like an LCR, ESR, and transistor tester are invaluble at times. Especially when you're working on different things every day with no schematics and have absolutely no clue what's going on (that's me). Bonus points for a tube tester if you occasionally work on old gear. I use an AVO CT160 at work.
@haywardhaunter2620 11 ай бұрын
I find lots of good light reduces the need for magnification, though not always entirely. I like having a (cheap) microscope that let's me snap pictures quickly. For de-soldering, I find a "solder sucker" great for the initial blob and I save the wick for the last remnants. A _small_ container to toss the (still good) components I don't need so I don't have to interrupt my flow to return them to the precise location in my parts storage system. I call these my "go-backs" and sort them back into storage whenever I need to so something mindless. Consumables: Heat shrink tubing, replacements for the most common connectors/headers you use, spare batteries for the calipers, lever nuts (e.g., Wago 221 compact series), ferrules, IPA wipes, poster putty, even more spare batteries for the calipers, and breadboard friendly buttons, trimpots, connectors, and an infinite supply of jumper wires in every color. Did I mention spare batteries for the calipers?

@bobweiram6321 3 жыл бұрын
@Frankie Bleddyn This presentation is targeted at hobbyist audiences. Professionals already know or have most of the equipment they need. While Keysight's products are among the very best, they are extremely hard to justify for the non-professional. There are numerous other products offering a far better value such as Rigol, Uni-T and Sigilent. To get the equivalent functionality of a $300 Rigol from Keysight, you'd spend well over $2K or more. I was hoping this marketing campaign repositioned their products to be more competitive to hobbyists. Since they failed to do so, I am suspicious of this being more of an act of desperation. They are several high-end equipment manufacturers and only so many high-end customers. The market is also becoming increasingly saturated and competitive with tons of products offering tremendous amount of value for the price. Perhaps, Keysight is conducting market research to gauge profitability in the hobbyist space. It would have been cheaper and far more effective if they priced one of their existing scopes to compete with Rigol and the other value brands, instead of trying to scam us with sweepstakes.

One thing to not forget is an LCR meter. You need a reliable way to measure Inductance and data logging curves on excel might not be time efficient. I use the Tenma 10465 which was around $150 USD. Multiple frequency ranges like 100 Hz to 100 kHz is important! Also ESR meters are nice for in-circuit testing. I still need to get one, but they are pretty cheap.

Great! I think I may have scored 100% on this one! I do use a component tester, LCR meter a lot even though it is only a small cheap one for simple checks (did I read the resistor bands correctly!). I also find it is vital to have a small and very thin set of small spanners for all those components that need tightening, pots, banana plug sockets, etc. And of course a really good source of light and I use a hand lens from time to time too! Oh, I also have a circuit board holder - cheap and really useful and an IC pin straightener as they pins on new chips are always splayed out!
@funtechu 3 жыл бұрын
56 points. Some things I would add to the list: - Good binocular scope with a reducer. Super helpful when working on smaller SMD parts. Freestanding so it can go over your preheater. - An alcohol dispenser (can get them in the beauty isle) for cleanup, and Kimtech wipes. like this - www.amazon.com/Liquid-Alcohol-Dispenser-Bottle-Labeled/dp/B000MI85FC - Lots of connectors, adapters, etc. - A USB battery pack. You can use it to quickly plug in a USB-powered project, it's portable, and it's guaranteed to be isolated, so can be great for checking if you suspect some sort of group look issue. - Breadboards, breadboard wires for quickly testing out chips - Breadboard SMD adapter boards. You can quickly solder on a chip you want and characterize it before you use it in a design.

In addition to what was mentioned, a couple of reference standards and a loop calibrator come in handy, especially for sanity checking test gear, plus analogue scopes are great if you want to learn all the fundamentals of setting up a scope with direct non sub-menu interfaces, infrared non contact thermometers, thermal imager, k-type thermometer, can come in handy for diagnostics, wet and dry vacuum for mess, isopropyl alcohol, thinners, lighter fluids, deionised water and acetone for use in cleaning and solvents, shaker plate, hot plate, angle poised lamp, head torch, jewels loop or magnifier glasses, smartphone for reference and camera use, air compressor, different types of tape including capton, 3M magic tape, copper and aluminium, normal, electrical, duct, adhesives, storage boxes for holding projects while working on others, different microcontrollers, and breadboards, dupont jumper wires, grabbers, LCR meters, spectrum analyser and vna, isolation transformer, helping hands, bench vice, hand operated counter, frequency counter, timer, clock so time doesn't run away, always have someone present when working on something dangerous, it took me nearly 20 years to build my home lab, and there's alot more there than mentioned, but you'll get alot of enjoyment out of the hobby especially with stuff you build and repair yourself, not to mention all the knowledge you'll gain.

I did not keep a real count, but right now I don't remember anything missing from my lab. Although, like somebody else also excused -- my fire extinguishers (2 of them) are in my garage, just next to the kitchen door. Even otherwise, my home is my electronics lab. The main components collection (a carousel) occupies most of the next room, along with some additional instruments and a library book shelf (component data books). My two analog storage scopes and 3 digital ones reside in the living room. There is also an 8-channel digital strip chart recorder, two pulse generators, a stroboscope, two audio analyzers and a Control Systems Analyzer. There are two PCs in the main lab room. The power supplies there consist of one 4-output, one 3-output, one 2-output all on the bench shelf and finally one power supply on my scope cart. The main math devices are a 12" slide rule, and a binary / hex calculator. Plus I always have my smart phone with me, with its HP-15 and HP-67 calculator applications. Did I get any bonus points? I forgot to mention my Universal 1 GHz counter / timer and a GPS lock-in calibrator. And two current probes, one 15 kV scope probe and one 700 V differential probe as well as one 900 MHz active probe. 2 LCR bridges. Oh, two modern spectrum analyzers are at home, while one vintage spectrum analyzer and some more instruments are most of the time in an outside storage facility, but visit occasionally my home lab. More bonus points???

49. Any points for equipment built from a kit? Points for modifying it to work better? Any points for equipment over 50 years old still working & in use? Any points for self designed & built equipment? Stuff you missed, microscope, pcb holder thingy, lab notebook, some sort of breadboard.

Good evening all! Nice tech fun video I've got 56 on the scoreboard (missing some special tools >.>> plus 1: I made my power first power source from scratch with LM317/7805/7809, and designed the circuit as the silhouette of Ahsoka, draw it with permanent marker, corroded it and soldered the components. \|/ ->>> plus 2: I made a 3D printer from scratch following info on the internet. From maker 2 maker, thank you all!!! Too sad that I cant participate in the contest (I live in Brazil) but happy to be in this atmosphere of makers S2

70 - but I'm missing the frequency generator and a better bench power supply - no bench DMM either. I would add some sort of logic analyzer - Saleae is what I have but there's some sigrok compatible ones that are great too.

Should smartphone/pc internet access be on the list for looking stuff up? Also the smartphone is great for taking before photos of things before disassembly. If I borrow the extinguisher from the kitchen, and if I consider an old analog scope as a bench top scope I'm at 63 points, otherwise, I drop to 45. I'd love to win some of this newer gear. I'll be checking in daily for the rest of the contest! Thanks for the great giveaway!

My lab is 53. and also a vector analyzer would be good(especially for a ham radio hobbyist like me :) )

64/79 And of course I'm all the time thinking what to get next from second hand market. Thanks for pointing fire extinguisher, I find it right behind the lab door. By the way kithen is my lab right now. :)

Even I don't use my fume extractor :-P It's so bulky around all the other small items required near the soldering station

Thank you Keysight! I'm sure all the people I'll demo this beauty will agree, that Kesight make darn good equipment!!!

And I thought I was smart using those "integral wash bottles" for wetting the sponge...guess I wasn't the only one who had that idea.

50 points i gave myself 2 points with "spare parts" part, and 1 point for Signal generator since i kinda have one but it's just 555 in a stable mode soldered on prototyping board with gold pin on wire to chose capacitor so idk if it even counts.

Wow I score 57. From most scored equipment i am missing FG and Fire Extenguisher. I wonder why you did not mention microscope and good light for projects. My hobby is 75% of repairing stuff and that 2 things are essential for me.

62... if presence matters more than quality. but you forgot the bench itself! And the third hand/unpaid assistant. And the bin of projects in progress.

Scored 66/79. Fire extinguisher gave me the highest points. Missing the points because of Grounded setup(-5), Function Generator(-5), Voltage Detection Tool(-1), Hot plate(-1), non bench-top oscilloscope(-2).

75/79, not bad. I lack first aid kit (well, its next door) and a dremel. Instead I have a CNC mill :-). What's not on the list is a internet connected computer for checking data sheets, keeping track of and sourcing components and finding inspiration for new projects.

38 looks like I'm doing ok. Even if I had to make my own bench supply. Lol
