[MOVED] Simpson 260-6P (rare) analog multimeter whereabouts for sale besides E-Bay? - Page 1

content: Anyone have a lead on a good working Simpson 260-6P multimeter for sale.........something that may be reasonably priced as well. The 260-6P doesn`t seem to come available on e-bay too often.....I suppose I could have a little more patience with the site, and I may.The 260-6P is my preference for a few reasons, one is due to the fact that it uses a "d" cell battery which is double cased and less prone to leakage....can cause lots of damage...I`m in Northern B.C., Canada.......Anyways......got one you might want to part with and live with-in North America for shipping reasons ?

If that's the case, you may find a NEMA number on it that would allow you to order the correct female end that you could put on your own cord, or with an inside diameter measurement, you may find something compatible. Either way, your best bet will be the contractor counter at an electrical supply house. They should have the catalogs you need to find something.

The boards are about 2x3" and are pretty basic. It contains the chip with the pins broken out, Vreg, power jack, an FT232RQ chip with mini USB connector, and some LEDs and such. I'd be selling them for ~$25 shipped in the ConUS, although I haven't settled on a final price yet. Anyone interested?

content: I'm going to make a new offer similar to one I made earlier in the year.If you are based in the US, I will send a small priority mail box stuffedwith TTL parts to the first 4 people who request it, absolutely free(limited to 4 so I don't spend a lot on postage).If you are interested, send me an email. Let me know if you are interestedin specific parts, or just want an assortment. I also have a very randomcollection of voltage regulators, LED displays, and the like, so you'llprobably get some other kinds of goodies as well.Why am I doing this? I rarely use any 74LSXX series parts anymore.Usually I use CPLD's and FPGA's and occasionally CMOS parts, but not TTL.I hate to just toss the TTL parts, so if someone can make use of themto learn or repair stuff or whatever, I'd rather ship them out somewhere.Scott

It can take a beating compared to CMOS, reliability, cheap dirt cheap, did i mention really really dirt cheap, fast (F series), better propagation delay, not much parasitic capacitance. I Still use a 74LS83, 7400, 74LS123 among others. Great for teaching students as well. I looked at some redesign with CPLD and FPGA, but on some applications still can't beat good old TTL. If it not broke don't fix it, hi hi. I'm just worried in 30 years if they will still be around.

DMMs within EU? - Page 1
Forum section: electronics / general

author: tuo
author_rank: Contributor
timestamp: November 16, 2010, 07:12:38 pm
content: Do people have any links to places that sell digital multimeters in reasonable prices in EU?I have this question, since I could use another DMM in addition to my Sanwa, but the prices here in Finland are quite high. For example those models in $50 dollar shootout seem to cost like almost 60 euros without VAT, which is 23% here. So instead of $50 the prices are more like €70...So ordering from a webshop outside Finland sounds like a plan. I'd like to have a DMM with TrueRMS, which means a higher price and a higher chance that the finnish customs will charge VAT if I order my DMM from outside EU region. The rule is that VAT is charged, if the sum of the tax goes over 10 euros, so I could order tax free until I keep the price under 43 euros. A TrueRMS DMM under €43 is like dreaming, so I'm stuck to ordering within EU.So, do you have any hints where to go? I did some research and found a german webshop that I will take as a reference point for prices:http://www.voelkner.de/categories/9_2032_3697/Messtechnik/Messgeraete/Multimeter.html

content: Actually, you can get a TRMS from US for less than the taxable amount. As I also happen to live in Finland, I was eyeing for DMMs on ebay the other day and surely enough few rebranded Extech's were under the limit (that is assuming, the value customs cares about is the price you pay for the meter not including shipping).Brands offering Extech with their own name are at least 'Craftsman' and 'PeakTech' - never heard of the latter before though, but you can cross-reference them with Extech's models and they're identical on everything but the logo and coloring.Also if you buy from GB (ebay.co.uk) you can shop free from taxes legally as they're inside EU. I've seen a few reasonably priced Amprobes over there.Then there is the third option of buying from china, either through ebay or from various china outlets as they more often than not mark the value down...Feel free to pester me privately if you feel the urge for chatting in native language instead.

content: I have DeWALT DC9280 28v packs that I am selling either as working packs, groups of 8 cells extracted from the packs or individual cells with tabs attached (you just solder to them). I 100% test individual cells I sell (and groups of up to 8 cells) and charge/discharge the packs (but not the ones still in retail packaging) before shipping to assure no DOA. The packs are $70 plus $10 shipping to anywhere in the USA (only $5 shipping for each additional pack). Individual cells are $8 each (I have about 200 of them to sell). Shipping varies depending on quantity so ask for a quote. For now, USA sales only but I will consider shipping internationally if your country supports Paypal (for a higher shipping fee).

I checked the Tektronix siteand the service manual is there for download and itincludes schematics.If I didn't already have two 100Mhz scopes, I'd probably try to pick itup myself. Looks like the seller ships to the US only.In any case, since it's a less well known Tektronix, maybe it won'tget bid up very much. If it actually goes for $100, that's a gooddeal for a working Tek 100Mhz. I paid $180 for my last one :-)Scott

They seem to have fairly reliable order systems, and when I've needed to call for support their support has been adequate. I have no complaints, but to debate whether or not a particular supplier has screwed up at some point is useless. If they want someone's business back, they can go get it. Otherwise, $304 for a Fluke 87 V is not bad...

content: At work we recently moved to a new building and people got rid of some stuff since we knew space will be less.I recovered an AT89C52 board that will be great for someone who wants to do some microcontroller stuff based on it.I'm not 100% sure if the board works or not as you can see in the picture is a pretty simple development board, what I can see is a variable power supply based on LM317, a 40 pin DIP AT89C52, a couple of 74HC244N, and some passive components, it has 2 or 3 ports where connections can be made. It runs in a 12 MHz XTAL. It also seems to have the space to add a couple of keys.I applied power and it turned on, the ICs are in a base, so if you need to replace any you don't need to desolder it.I'm giving this away for free if you are willing to pay the shipping cost, what we can do is that I will charge you the money once I have sent the unit to you so we know the price.Let me know, hopefully this board can get in the hands of someone that will use it.
