Yep not something I use much either but since I got this thing been testing caps a bit more and been finding leakyies I usually pass,
Overall The capwiz has shown itself to be a useful tool. See thing is. Being a busy bee like everyone else, When it is working fine its time to move on to something else thats not working. so dodgy or marginal caps are passed over.

I like this thing as its quick to use with the cap in circuit and gives a quick (indication) of a potentially problematic cap which I just replace and then have an easier conscience.

I will keep this thing I think.
