Siglent SDL1030X vs. Rigol DL3031A - Which is better?
TBS:
Hello everyone,
I would like to ask professionals about which DC load to buy. I am deciding between:
Siglent SDL1030X-E (or SDL1030X) and
Rigol DL3031 (or DL3031A)
Seems like the Siglent is newer, but they have pretty much the same stats and I am not sure which is better to invest money in.
Thx

The SDL1030X-E is so new I don't think anyone has reviewed one yet. However, functionally it is probably just about the same as the SDL1020X-E which has had some hands-on here:

Thx for the info.
I was hoping for something like "you definitely want Rigol or Siglent because ..." :D

Be careful what you wish for. That phrase is like a little drop of blood, and this forum is an ocean of hungry sharks. ;D

What do you require? There are more expensive loads and there are cheaper loads. And then there is also Ebay with lots of used DC loads from HP/Agilent and Transistor Devices.
Depending on what your budget is you might want to look at GW Instek as well. Their newer PEL-3000 series DC loads appearantly have hardware control loops just like the high end DC loads. Prepare yourself for a much higher price but the control loop performance is also much better compared to the more simple low cost DC loads.
