Probes: HANTEK PP-200 vs PP-150

[exe]

Hi guys!

Does anyone have experience with PP-200 probes? I can't find anything about them. It looks like PP-150 are widely recognized to be "good and cheap", but PP-200 look even better in specs(I mean BW at 1x attenuation). They are also twice more expensive...

Huh, I think there is sort of confusion. One e-shop shows that more expensive probes have better 1x specs, but this contradicts the "official" site (http://www.hantek.com/en/ProductDetail_15_73.html). It looks like the 1x performance is identical on these probes. So, I think this answers my question. PP-200 won't make my life better comparing to PP-150.

PP-150 is the one you get with the 100 MHz model
PP-200 is the one you get with the 200 MHz model
So I guess the 200 model will go up to 200 MHz where the 150 might not/won't ?

[GilbouFR]

Models : PP80, PP90, PP150, PP200
All of them are 6 MHz when set to x1 so there is no difference
The difference appears when they are set to x10 :

PP-80 = 60 MHz
PP-90 = 80 MHz
PP-150 = 100 MHz
PP-200 = 200 MHz

I bought some of the 150s about 4 years ago and use them a fair bit.  They continue to work fine and I can't understand how they could sell them so cheap.   

I made a video where I compared them with some other probes.  I have not tried the 200 but I wonder now if the quality has suffered to keep the price down.  It will be interesting to see how they compare if someone decides to run them.
