The Rigol Scope fan criticism

[Howardlong]

The TDS2024B I have wasn't cheap, it was £1,800!

During a spring clean, I had the choice of getting rid of a 2465B or the TDS2024B. I got rid of the 2465b. It was the right decision, I was space-poor, and having single shot capability is a very valuable feature in spite of the very limited memory.

Luckily I moved and have a dedicated lab now, and have both a 2465B and 2467B, as well as half a dozen other scopes from the MSO1074Z to an Infiniium. We are very lucky: back when I was a nipper, a scope was simply not even on the equipment list for a nerd, it was an instrument only to be found in a well-appointed lab.

The Rigol scopes seem to get generally great reviews from users .... The one complaint I consistently see is fan noise. 

I opened my DS1204B, added 1 resistor in series with the fan, fixed.
