I think this looks like an interesting bargain, I've ordered one to find out - it's still less than $40 including airmail shipping to the UK, although it remains to see how much customs / VAT / Royal Mail handling charges get added on.

Great tip!!!

I just needed a storage scope to measure puls width for MPE calculations

did you bought the storage version?

[greenalien]

The spec says :

* Save up to 6 captures to EEPROM and retain after power down

- and I agree that it could be very useful for measuring pulse width for MPE calcs.

I expect it to be a couple of weeks before it arrives, stuff from the USA has a tendancy to get stuck in UK customs!

Analog bandwidth is 1Mhz, this means that any practical measurement can be at max 100kHz.

just warning

[mccarrot]

Correct, some reviews on the internet also shows 100kHz max.

But for MPE Pulse width measurements it should be enough, 100KHz = a pulse of 0,01ms
