Is B&k 880 really the way to go for accurate portable LCR meter?
vintologi:
One issue with the DE-5000 is that it doesn't come with a 4-wire kelvin clip.
I have seen some people talk about modding it to make an adapter but i have not found anything you can buy finished yet.

i don't think the 880 was flawed, but maybe un-calibrated ...
I'm not even sure theses come from B&K ... must be rebrands, even their old 885 886 and bench ones too where rebrands
but now you have East Tester ET xxx series, Hantek 1832 1833 ones, some Appa, Peaktech, the new Uni-t models etc ... google handheld lcr and in the images youll see ton of thems rebranded etc ...
even some NJ200 NJ300 models sold on ebay seems to offer good performances vs pricing
0.5% is pretty basic ...

You shouldn't have to do that in the first place really.
Does not seem like it would be accurate enough for my taste even with that though.

For special purposes, I have built four-terminal connections for my DE-5000.
Note that the stock alligator-clip short cable is four-terminal up to the solder joint on the clips.

I should also look into the east tester ET433 and ET431
