I really need an electronic load from time to time, but never invested in a decent one. This one looks interesting though, the cost taken into consideration. Great review as usual Tony :)

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks! akso very low risk if you find one second hand. they are build rock solid

[@foxmoulder2430]

Korad begeistert mich immer mehr. 😊

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes if you looking for a basic but powerful Electronic load, you get lots of power for your money. The KEL20xx series is also very interesting and a bit more advanced.

[@davidv1289]

Thank you Tony for the review and the look inside. I like the PCB adapter from binding posts to banana jacks, great idea for use with light loads. Regards, David

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you David, yes i have it now permanent on the Korad, for big loads i use nom my Big Korad, so no need swapping the pcb now :)

[@Antoine_de_Saint_Exupéry]

Тони, твоя одержимость измерительным оборудованием заметна )) Благодаря твоим обзорам можно решиться на приобретение. Спасибо.

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks you, yes a real addict here, thank you for watching!

[@johnwest7993]

A man with 1 meter knows what the voltage is. A man with 2 meters never knows what the voltage is. You and I both have a lot of meters. At least we have cheap GPS disciplined freq standards. Josephson Junction voltage references aren't cheap.

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes indeed :) The DMMcheckPlus is good enough for me. have a look at that.

[@johnwest7993]

@@TonyAlbus, no need. I have several Vref cards that were pulls from HP lab multimeters, and I do contract work for the government lab that produces Josephson Junction reference systems. But we all seek perfection in precision for our own benches. It's in our blood.

[@TonyAlbus]

@@johnwest7993 Oh wow!!! that is great John.... oh yes it is.

[@EfieldHfield_377]

WOW you have 5 loads you really are addicted. I have a Rigol, fits all my needs, and has an application for battery testing. i use it pretty often as much of what i work on runs from batteries.

[@TonyAlbus]

.. LOL, yes a bit. indeed one good one should cover all your needs.

[@kaybhee6]

we use this for some years... pretty ok... from panel u can program secquences too....

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks for sharing! also after a few years it still works. yes you are correct its also possible

[@alpcns]

You always have interesting stuff, Tony. Soon you will need another room for all that lovely equipment. 😊

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks, yes the 'limited' space, holds me inline a bit... bigger lab means more stuff, now i am forced to make a selection and sell some. to make place for new funds and devices

[@opiwahn]

Thanks for your review! I'm using this device for one year now, mainly for battery testing. It has some bits and flaws, e.g. the printed manual is full of errors, the operation via the front panel is not intituive, you really need the manual for this. Nevertheless, regarding the price you get a valuable electronic load.

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes your comment is spot on... lots of power at Korad for your money, but not always that userfriendly in frontpanel, software a bit dated. but it all works and prob. for ages they way it is build.

[@EfieldHfield_377]

I like how you calibrate your equipment. Working with batteries trying to be within mV or mA is generally a waste of my time but i guess i should check accuracy.

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes you can go as far s you want with these things... start with 3 digits, then 4 then 5 etc etc :))

[@Busards]

Hi Tony. Great tool, have it also on my lab :) This little pcb adapter is very smart. Maybe you have a link where I can order one ? ;)

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks! .. found this in Belgium: www.tindie.com/products/belgianengineer/dc-electronic-load-to-banana-adaptor/ Found this on ebay: www.ebay.com/itm/166345573081 or www.ebay.com/itm/155411271124

[@NishantTyagi-yx4hw]

How to log the data while running the test.

[@TonyAlbus]

i think it has software, if it did i showed it.

[@NishantTyagi-yx4hw]

@@TonyAlbus I am using the software as shown in video but i am unable to get every second data. It logs only test end data. If you can share or make video on logging the data as well it will be of great help.

[@TonyAlbus]

@@NishantTyagi-yx4hw I have no experiance with that, maybe it can be done with SCPI or look for program testcontroller

[@sbelectronicaindustrial6652]

👌👌👌👍👍👍👍...!!

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you!

[@RemoteInstruments]

Where do you get the pc software? Does it run on Windows 11?

[@TonyAlbus]

From Newark com. i just googled it. i did run it on win10 in the video, then it prob runs on 11 too.

[@RemoteInstruments]

Hi, thanks for the reply. When I google from the UK the Tenma number I don’t get any links to software. I was really interested to understand the battery test feature more. Does it generate proper report data and graphs?

[@TonyAlbus]

@@RemoteInstrumentsi hope it allows the links https :// www farnell com / software / 4155423.zip the lijnk from newark goes to farnell .. will its all the same. (remove the spaces)

[@RemoteInstruments]

@@TonyAlbus Thank you. I just looked again. I see it on CPC and there is no link but when I went to the Farnell site, there is a small link to the software. Thank you for this. Do you think the Tenma unit is of the same quality as the Siglent load?

[@TonyAlbus]

@@RemoteInstruments The Tenma is made by Korad, the Korad is good.. Siglent is better but the price reflects that also. But the Electronicload from Siglent is not their best product, what i mean here is. the software and device it self is not that developed like their scopes or spectrum analyzers. you could find it somewhat limited, with more effort is would be so much better. and then that price is a bit high. But if all your other stuff is Siglent, you would go for it for sure.
