Paroidia:
So I have have found that my 2C72 will not reliably report the value of capacitors higher than 20µF. With 22µF caps I get inconsistent results, some report the value, some give a "0L" It seems to work fine with caps 20µF or smaller. Larger caps either give "0L" or wildly inaccurate results e.g a 47µF reporting 80µF and then the same value and manufacture cap on another board (Samsung Electro Mechanics SMT cap) reporting "0L" Interestingly 20µF is exactly the same limit as this device, also from Hantek.

 Is this just my particular 2C72? Everything else works fine except for this and it's not really a deal breaker. Mostly I would use the MM part for measuring DC voltage but I don't want a defective unit either.

 EDIT: Never mind it works, I am used to my Agilent meter reading caps more or less accurately on a PBC. I forgot you are supposed to remove a cap from the board before testing it.
