Micsig CP2100B vs Fluke Current probe

This video is about Micsig Cp2100B vs Fluke Current probe. I compare the Micsig CP2100B to the Fluke 80i-110S current clamp to use the Fluke as a measuring bar. The Micsig is a very impressive current probe. #Micsig #micsigCP2100B #flukecurrentprobe #Fluke80i-110S #currentclamp

Really really nice review. You covered all the bases in a very clear and concise way. Many thanks!

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks - I appreciate you!

[@robertcalkjr.8325]

Thanks for the review, Eddie! The Micsig looks nice.

[@KissAnalog]

You Bet Robert! Thanks for the feedback. The Micsig stuff is really looking impressive.

[@guilopur]

good morning sir, a few weeks ago I was working on the validation of equipment and had the need to measure current (40-50amps) at a frequency of 45KHz, to do so rent a current tester from pearsonelectronics. did the work. But this Micsig is exactly what I needed at the time. I should buy this one, thanks for the info

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks Hector for the great feedback - very interesting. This probe would have been fantastic for that - and remember to use my link if you can;)

[@versace885]

Hi Eddie, I really like your video. Thank you 🙏

[@KissAnalog]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the great feedback!

[@11orchids]

Great review... Thank you!!

[@KissAnalog]

Thank you - I appreciate you!

[@abusiveben]

" They asked me which probe and I told them the most expensive one". Haha 😂🤣😂. Ive been laughing a good 10 min lol. If anyone deserves some sweet bits of gear it's you. Good on Micsig for reaching out to you like that. They recognize your worth bro. Micsig makes some nice quality stuff. I was looking at their handheld oscilloscopes and differential probes a year or 2 back. That current probe they sent you is super sexy! After watching your review now I want one 😭. Great review and vid bro. Now I'm going to do some catching up on some of the ones I've missed . I see you've been busy haha

[@KissAnalog]

Great to hear from you abusiveben;) I am happy to get free - and even more happy when it is really cool! Micsig is really looking impressive. I want to get a scope if I can...and they have some other cool probes for auto work too.

[@tonysfun]

OK, now we need to convince them to give it to you and they will send us, the little people, the less expensive version! Thanks for your videos!

[@KissAnalog]

That's right Tony! Thanks!

[@chenjon4907]

Great Videl!! Thank you Eddie

[@KissAnalog]

Thank you! I appreciate you!

[@ats89117]

Great review. It's difficult to find a clamp meter that even goes out to 20 kHz so I will definitely pick one of these up, but since it looks like they are being significantly discounted, I'll need to find who's selling the B version for the best price...

[@KissAnalog]

Thank you. Yes, I agree - these are impressive. I added a new link to the Bangood site that is selling at discounts. www.banggood.com/custlink/vmKhETp1fU

[@rrowan327]

Very nice current probe. I'll definitive put it on my to buy list. If you can, I would love to see a video of your power supply if you do recap it and calibrate. Thanks

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks rrowan327 - I appreciate your feedback! That's a great idea - I'll have to do that;)

[@jacek7178]

Very interesting. What happens in case of overcurrent? E.g. 150A by surprise.

[@KissAnalog]

Great question! So, if a current much higher than the current probe can read occurred - then the probe would max out or saturate so the reading would be inaccurate. But, it would not hurt or damage the probe.

[@jacek7178]

@@KissAnalog Thanks

[@goaway2174]

Thanks for the great review! Is there anything that needs calibrated with the scope to use these current probes? I am only asking as all my 10X voltage probes need calibrated or they appear to give exaggerated edges (either overshoot or rounded off and slowed slew rate). Thanks!

[@friedmule5403]

I do really like your way to review things! Although your opinion is very important, I like the fact that you do also measure the gear. It's not your preconception of a brand or a prize that do sway your opinion, it's all about facts and your expertise that decide if a product gets an okay sign.

[@KissAnalog]

Glad you like them! Great to hear from you! I appreciate your insight!

[@BjornV78]

From my personal opinion, for a newcomer (since 2016) like Micsig, they are creating decent measurement tools at fair prices. If you look at the prices of there differential probes, they have almost the lowest prices you can find for a differential probe. Another newcomer (since 2019) is Mitstronic -> Mitstronic.com , at the moment they have only a differential probe (arround GBP 100 and free shipping worldwide) , but i expect they will expanding there productrange in the future.

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks Bjorn - I agree - Micsig is doing a great job. I'm interested in learning more about the Mitstronic product.

[@oilybrakes]

You didn't happen to review their (Micsig's) portable Oscilloscope? I've heard that they are supposed to be pretty good for the 300$.

[@abusiveben]

I have a fluke 199c ,keysight u16o4b and a hantek 1060. Id love to see a review vid on one of Micsig's handhelds , they look pretty sweet. They should totally send him one .

[@KissAnalog]

Great to hear from you;) I'll see if they will - that would be awesome! How do you like your 199C?

[@KissAnalog]

They do look great - I thought about buying one - but I've been spending too much lately;)

[@abusiveben]

@@KissAnalog I bought it off eBay used ( not working ) for $600. Seller said was near New but the screen wasn't working .Was a simple repair . I only briefly tested it's scope functions ( I spent most my time testing the dmm functions that day bc I working on solar and calibrating my panels meters ) it's a very fast very snappy device . It's a big bulky heavy instrument and feels like a brick in your hand , it's much much heavier than my keysight and my handtek both of which feel kinda like toys in the hand lol. The hantek by the way I got for only 112 bucks . Similar problem ( screen ) the repair was so simple I got mad ...the ribbon cable had developed and intermittent short inside of it from being bent over the sharp edge corner of the PCB. Ordered new ribbon cable and fixed lol .

[@KissAnalog]

Wow - you are doing a great job finding gems!

[@beamfinder8336]

21:27 HP: Caution 3 Amp Max Eddie: Let's take it up higher :-D Looks like a decent current probe! I bought one of the Hantek CC-65 and it's great for medium current or educational purpose, only downside is the drifting DC offset. If I need accuracy at DC - 400Hz and low currents I enjoy to use my HP 428B. 32:14 I really enjoy the safety BNC to 4mm adaptors from Stäubli MC. www.conrad.com/p/staublisw-xf-ss4test-lead-adapterbnc-socket-banana-jack-4-mmscoop-proofblack-red-121028 The inner conductor is directly pushed through and only the screen is extended. Also the inner conductor banana plug is gold plated. As I'm aware they build the same adaptor for Fluke, but Fluke demands 70€ for it istead of 12€.

[@BjornV78]

Or you can use these 9,30€ adapters -> www.reichelt.com/be/nl/bnc-adapter-500v-cat-i-bnc-7043-iec-p32458.html

[@beamfinder8336]

@@BjornV78 Electro PJP makes decent stuff! I have a set of their micro SMT probes: www.reichelt.de/smd-komplett-mess-set-20-teilig-ms-6800-8-p63477.html?&trstct=pos_14&nbc=1 They come with silicone leads and are perfect to grab pins of SO packages. Also their KLEPS (the regular, CAT I) are superior to SKS Hirschmann.

[@KissAnalog]

LOL - love it;)

[@reedreamer9518]

Remarkably, my CP2100A (bought on Banggood for $219) just tested at least as good or better than the CP2100B model shown in this video (using the exact same test procedure). Actually, the 3dB roll off (0.707 x mA reading) for my CP2100A was found out beyond 3MHz. Has anyone else with the A model tested the 3dB band width limit and found it better than expected?

[@KissAnalog]

Thank you! That is awesome news!! Hopefully someone will chime in;)

[@jstro-hobbytech]

I've never owned any micsig products but they seem like their products are accurate and durable.

[@KissAnalog]

Thanks Joey - I agree;) Did you see the Micsig scope that I demonstrated: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKWopWuQmJ2ijKM

[@jstro-hobbytech]

@@KissAnalog yeah, it's great. For the price of it in Canada I could get an awesome siglent. Read patreon

[@yelsing1]

I have found this probe in 150 bucks, on aliexpress. I am not sure if it is the original one, or it could be an imitation or refurbished product. I think a big fall from 400 to 150 in less than 4 months is quite suspicious.

[@KissAnalog]

I have seen it for sale for less when I did the video, and if I didn't mention it I should have maybe, but I was worried that the price might not be available. What I can say is that is a manufactures suggested price and in China they can't control the pricing. I'd not be surprised to see it for half price, but for less than that - it does seem suspicious. Then again, it is a probe that should only cost 100 bucks at the most;) I see it at near that today. I'm tempted to buy one at that price just to pass on what I find on a video;) Thank you for pointing this out!

[@andyj2106]

Looks like a decent piece of kit. I guess it's going to replace your Hantek in future videos!

[@KissAnalog]

It is really nice - but i'll try to use the Hantek where it works to show others what it can do. The Hantek is a great price. Thanks Andrew!

[@aldolara6228]

In spanish?

[@KissAnalog]

I wish I could. I need to learn;)

" I'm not going to do that , 220v at 10 amps is a lot of energy haha" 😂😂😂 .

[@KissAnalog]

LMAO - ok so I'm chicken;)

@@KissAnalog haha 😂😂😂

[@tonyfremont]

That's pretty impressive, Fluke should be embarrassed. The CP2100A seems to be in the vicinity of $200 now (Oct 2020)

[@KissAnalog]

I agree Tony - thanks for the feedback!
