content: Hi alljust wanted to share a very brief tear down of my Hantek DSO1060 60MHz 250kwf/s handheld scope.I've had this unit for quite a few years now and it's been great for when i'm out and about needing to check things like basic signal integrity for bus systems like ASi and DeviceNET.Straight off you can see in the pictures below the basic operations, I'm just using the 1kHz test point to display.It includes all your basic measurements and FFTIt also has a DMM, which connected to my DMMCheck+ its pretty darn spot on, especially the resistance.the exception is the AC measurement is waaay off.A kinda neat feature is that the DMM can also be displayed with the scope runningNow lets get into the guts of the thing:First off is the back of the unit, you can see the two cans of the front endand on the other side, unfortunately all the markings on the larger chips have been removed.Now lets have a look under the cans:Under the blue PCB is nothing special:So thats just a brief pictorial view of the Hantek DSO1060.It's been great for me when i'm out, screen resolution isn't so great at only 360*240 but that was all available at the day for a reasonable price.The rechargeable Li-ion battery has pretty good battery life, i'm not sure how many hours but it has never become an issue for me. the power supply does introduce a lot of noise so it's wise not to use the scope while it's plugged in.I do want to upgrade to one of the DSO1000S series as they are CAT III 600V isolated and i'll feel a bit safer using it when i need to probe around some of the higher powered items i make. Plus the upped 640*480 screen would be a lot nicer too and the price point has come way down.Attached are some higher rez pics.

content: We have a 14 months old DSO1062BV that wont start, when we connect it to battery or Power adapter. All it does is make a "TRRRRK" chatter under the cans.This Unit was earlier repaired under warrenty for the same issue and checked after repair to be running OK, now it has not been used in last 4 months and has developed the same issue.Any idea where to start since the dealer is absolutely useless and will not honor his own repair warrenty and is pretty useless.Thanks for any pointer towards repairing the sameVinay

content: Talk directly with Hantek themselves, I always find its pretty darn easy.Mainly because a lot of companies like these sell a lot of their products through aliexpress and taobao, the sellers there normally don't handle warranties themselves and just pass you on directly to the manufacturer.Email them to both service@hantek.com.cn and support@hantek.com.cnTell them that you bought it from aliexpress and the seller is no longer on aliexpress.They would normally help you out.

content: No Hantek team supports the dealer, and earlier too when i pointed the issue, they pointed towards one of my converstation on this forum, and told me that since the 200 hz hack was tried out its outside warrenty, and i will have to send it back to them for motherboard replacement.
