- Do you appreciate that this blog is not full of Google ads?
What do I do with your donations?
I'll fulfill two of my wishes:
- Buy better measuring equipment for the tests on this blog
To better perform the popular tests of affordable (measuring) equipment and kits, I want to invest in better and additional measuring equipment. On the wish list:
- AC mV meter.
- Audio generator with very low distortion.
- Harmonic distortion meter.
- Variac.
- A 199999 meter as a reference for my multimeter tests. - More budget for the purchase of products to be tested
I buy most of the tested products myself because I don't want to build up a dependent relationship with suppliers and manufacturers. That is why fairly cheap products are tested. With your donations I also get the opportunity to buy some more expensive products for the tests.
