I'm mainly an audio electronics channel but my top two videos are about LED bulbs. Perhaps I should change to the LED Bulb Channel.😀

If they advertised this scope for what it's really capable of no one would buy it. Bandwidth is 10X what an instrument is capable of reliably displaying. So a "100 MHz scope" is good for 10 MHz. Up to 100 MHz it's going to do something but not really what you want. In the upper range of their bandwidth cheap DSOs are going to display a sine wave regardless of what the input signal looks like. So testing them with a sine wave is less than informative. Square wave? Sine wave! In the immortal words of John Belushi, Cheeseburger, cheeseburger, cheeseburger. That's all you're going to get. Oh, and Pepsi, no Coke.

Thanks for doing the review on this. I have had one of these for a little over a year now. I keep it in my tool case in the car for field service. The battery seems to hold a charge for a very long time. For quick measurements and for verifying the presence of a signal, this little scope works well. I did, however, find one problem with it. If you need to capture a single waveform, you are limited to the length of the waveform you can capture. We sometimes have to capture a waveform that is upwards of 1 second long. This scope can't do it. If you set the trigger to normal mode and then set the time base to anything 100mS/division or longer, the scope will switch the trigger to auto mode and shade out the option for normal trigger. I think it is because of memory limitations. Other than that, it works great, especially when you don't want to drag the big scope into the worksite ;) Thanks again!

Purchased one about a year ago. I'd buy it again.

Sorry, I prefer the "real thing" with less menu's but buttons.

If you already know what you doing and the expected signals as seen on an analog scope, these digital scopes are great; just tweak the settings a little bit. They present traps for new players though (IMO). Sometimes they display things that are not even there or miss things that are there; pressing the "Auto" button might not help. That's been my experience on the early low end models...

I like the idea of this, its portable, and electrically isolated. which are 2 things I really need and its has a large screen, it costs £120. People critiquing it seem to compare it with scopes costs 5x as much, without a good reason.

You are really later to this party I've got 2 of them n had em for 3yrs, I use them for car diag work there not great just ok to about 30Mhz & definitely not 1Gs/s. I'm an electronics tech & mechanic of some 40yrs.

I bought one of these a year or so ago, and have not regretted it. My interest is mostly in RF, and I do very little audio work. The audio work I do is over a narrow bandwidth. So I got rid of my 4ch 200Mhz scope (I donated it to a local club) that took up a lot of space and bought this instead. It does all I needed and so much more. Btw, a scope rated to 100Mhz doesn't mean it works there. A 100Mhz scope has a working bandwidth of about 1/2 to 75 %the rating at best. At 100Mhz the amplitude is typical rolled of by a minimum of 3db.

I watched this video about a month ago, and tonight I ordered one of these scopes. Thanks for a very helpful and straightforward run through. I bought it after buying a Roland S1 Tweaker Synth, which has some great innovative wave modifying features, but only a four character seven segment display, and lots of multifunction illuminated buttons. The KZfaq reviewer I watched had screen in screen of an oscilloscope, which really helps to learn exactly what the synth engine is doing. Also, I’m building an audio device, so it’s great to hear that this scope is suitable for basic experiments and debugging audio circuits.

I really wanted an old analog scope and got a 90's 20MHZ Kenwood couple years back. Maybe better for learning, but these cheap DSO's offer tons of useful features, tiny footprint, isolated and its portable.

I bought the same scope based on review. Sorry. It is NOT a 100MHz, 1Gsa/s scope, the rise time on 300ps signal shows 10ns (means ~25MHz bandwidth), the minimum timebase setting is 10ns/div, and it looks that all waveforms on <50ns/div scale are interpolated, do not reflect real signal which makes me think that the real sampling rate is not more than ~200Msa/s. The look in implementation shows one AD9288 (2x100M) per channel that confirms the point. Minimum range is 50mV/div. The display cannot show the samples as dots, so you never know what it really captured. The software is very buggy, it is easy to get to the mode when the grid display is incorrect, sampling rate is low and record length is short. After that, the slow rising edges are shown (same 300ps signal now is 100ns rising time!). For instance, the pulse rate of 500kHz may be shown as 400ns period on the grid (5x incorrect!).

This model is currently blanketing eBay. Tempting for the price. Thanks for the add’l context!

I think for the price, it's a pretty good oscilloscope. Probes includes, responsive touchscreen, very readable screen. For beginners and even for more advanced users who just quickly look a a signal. Yeah al in al a decent scope! I already have a scope, but I would definitely consider this I was looking for one. And if you are just doing audio.... even better! Thanks for the review!

John I totally agree. I actually own a DSO and the JYEtech DSO150 it was the Kit version. A 5 year Hantek unit.

I purchased a DSO 1308 DIY Oscilloscope kit from an Amazon return center for $4.00 just because it was only $4.00 It was fun building it. Verifying all the correct resistor values, soldering it all together. I've never used one and not really sure what to use it for. I've been following your channel since 2016 when I built my 1st Altiods tin audio amp and speaker with an LM386 chip. Made several BT speakers, then moved on to learning Arduino and programming onto Wemos D1 Mini ESP8266. Then augmented that project with a Raspberry Pi Zero W and Mosquitto MQTT. I still have no idea what to use an oscilloscope for or how to properly take readings from it. I just happened to see this video and thought hmmmm maybe should learn some basic oscilliscope "stuff".

One thing going for this is a nice big display. A lot of scopes have a much smaller display.

I was looking at the AESwave uScope but this one with two channel and touchscreen seems like a no brainer!

Ideal for working on audio valve amps where you need the isolation and the supplied 100X probe.
