Tequipment has them. Let me go back and see if there was a delay in delivery.
Evereywere I looked for the DL3000 Series it says 404. Maybe Rigol requested that the info of the e-load to be taken down for some reason ?

yes, official product launch is around mid of May
I know. I mean why take down all the info thats availabe now on for expample tequipment. The link provided from another user just says "404". Like other ones I looked up.
TEquipment pulled the web page. It's gone.
Because they're pulling "a Siglent", raising the price by 40% between now and actual launch and don't want to be called out?
Please see the Siglent NEW bench DMM thread.
Well I have no idea where the originally proposed pricing came from and have always known better than portray any pricing until it's formally announced. In fact the only pricing I have is dealer pricing as yet, no retail at all so the price advertised is just conjecture.
BTW, I have a demo unit of 3065X coming and a 3055 demo on hand so will take some little time to compare results.
I'm saving my pennies for this DC load. Just when will it start to ship is the next question.
interesting. dl3031 is 999, dl3031 is 1499...
"Five software-enabled licenses are optionally available to suit individual needs: (LAN-DL3, DIGITALIO-DL3, HIRES-DL3, FREQ-DL3, SLEWRATE-DL3)."
assumption, no lan/lxi by default.
I see them up on
Taobao for:
DL3021 2680 RMB = 395 USD = 350 EUR
DL3031 3580 RMB = 527 USD = 467 EUR
They're listed the 'A' variants at the same price, but I'm sure that's a placeholder.
<not threadjacking, just a point of comparison>
Maynuo M9711's are smaller, and about 1000 RMB cheaper than the DL3021 - but UI is a little primitive, the sense inputs are on the rear (and hidden in a settings menu), and there's no Ethernet (option.... thanks Rigol!). Of course, the mysteriously similar M9710 can be had for even less - about
1000 RMB total!
The Maynuo units have extremely fast screen updates though, which I love. I hope Rigol can get that right.
And here is another one from the international site with different style (better colored buttons in my opinion), the firmware to download and the starting price.

If you ask me, I'd be more concerned about the noise injected from the unit rather than the price itself: it's very annoying to have your measurement screwed up by things like that... Especially if you are going to make some ripple measurements or specification checks on other power supplies! Anyway, for less than 800 Eur it would be a fantastic choice for most of us!
I Agree, but from the other hand what you give is what you get (i mean money).
Well, Should be interesting if Dave compares it with the BK precision he haves, results may be surprising, being in the same price range. Also it would be intersting to compare it with a kikosui one....

For 1-1.2k EUR you can have used Agilent N3301A with module, so 800 EUR it expensive.
Today is the official release day of the New RIGOL DL3000 DC Electronic Load for Europe

The N3301A is definitley a not so compact one, and also you can't say it's a new instrument (replacement parts?). Besides you cannot have an Agilent or pretty much any other one for something as low as $500, especially if it's brand-new and you don't want to to the no name brands...
Also, for something like 1,2K EUR you can get a used kikusui load (and probably still save up something), but again, we are taking about brand-new vs used...
It could be very interesent a side by side hardware comparison between the two models 3021 (40A) and 3031 (60A), especially at the power stage part to see if they are so big differences to deserve this huge ammount difference of money. Allmost more than the double! As for the differences between simple and A models as i can see is probably only software licences ...
I have done these table, it may help to spot the differences faster.
