East Tester ET4510 LCR meter

(1/10) > >>

Hi Folks

Anyone have one of these East Tester ET4510?
I'm curious if this is just the ET44 series with different software.
Or if anyone has internal shots?

I ordered one from this seller for $265 $310 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005657296422.html
EDIT2: Do not buy from this seller!

EDIT: Btw. I did search and could hardly find any information about this meter online.  There were about 3 mentions on eevblog forum about this meter but nothing more.  And one pretty terrible Youtube video

Hi,
I had already set my sights on the ET4510 because it have variable test frequencies in 1Hz steps - good for graphical representations etc. .
Otherwise, I still have a 4410 here, if you get the 4510, take some nice pictures of the inside and then we can compare. :D

Edit:

Not avaible for my country - the avaible ones will cost more than 600€... ::)

Glad to hear I'm not going insane eyeing it.  I was trying to figure out if the device is very new or something is wrong  :phew:

Assuming it is not a scam (due to price) I intend to take pictures of everything.

Yeah it is much cheaper then every other seller, especially if I include shipping.

Seller hasn't been around *that* long, but the store doesn't have too many alarming reviews and the person is responding to messages (I asked for Fedex shipping but instead UPS is all that is available, which charges a lot more for clearance to my destination)

I can't wait to see if you'll be holding it in your hands soon. ;)

Just by random chance encountered this thread, I have one. It's not entirely new (out for like 4-5 years I guess, was a lot cheaper back then), and technically it is mostly the same as the ET4410, apart from the software, as far as I can tell (at least the analog board has printed ET44 on it, so that part seems to be the same).

The user interface does have its quirks, but for normal day-to-day usage it works quite well, it's fast to boot (less than 4s), completely silent, outputs pretty neat sinewaves at the set frequency (verified, as far as reasonable, with the scope), and is quite stable in its measurements (also can be seen in quite a lot of electronics youtube videos sitting somewhere in the background...) - so if I just need to do some quick measurement I often end up using it instead of one of the better DMMs, just because it's so quick to be online.

For nice graphing there are a few minor issues, but you could PM me, I've written some Python script that works around most of those, as the device can be remote controlled (mostly for "hunting down" resonant frequencies, but should be easy enough to adapt).

I would suggest getting replacement cables, though, the ones coming with it are not too bad, but since I replaced them it works even better (better reproducibility of results in particular).

There is a JTAG port inside, and I would expect putting the 4510 firmware onto a 4410 might actually convert it (unless they did something to the analog board), but for lack of a specimen to test it on I couldn't verify. The front-panel board seems to communicate with the analog board using some 9600 baud UART (IIRC), I didn't go any deeper than that for lack of time, didn't take any pictures of the inside either.
