I have this one too [Amprobe 37XR-A]:

Less powerful than the Peak LCR, but more useful for continuous measurements, i.e. on variable inductors.

i just bought the atlas lcr-40 a few weeks ago cost me 98 euro's incl. shipping and 2 extra batteries to Holland. really nice simple to use meter, the only meter i could find in the minus 300 range that measured L and C at different freuencies. I recommend getting some of the other probe options because the supplied leads are kinda short. Not the most precise meter but a bargain overall. 2 thumbs up!

Anyone using the M3 LCR?

 

[1954U1]

I'm thinking about a TH2821A,
it seems not bad and around 200$, anyone using it?

I do a lot of custom guitar and bass pickup winding and I use an Extech 380193.  It's worked flawlessly for my needs.  They're about $200.00.

What about using LIMP wich is a part of ARTA software?
http://www.fesb.hr/~mateljan/arta/support.htm

According to app note2 :
"The program Limp can be used to measure value of resistors, capacitors and inductors, simply by
calculating resistive, inductive or capacitive parts of the measured impedance"

I've seen the specs.. its amazing indeed for the price.
They've also a semiconductor analyzer which does also voltage threshold, saturation current and RDSON measurements for JFETs..

Too bad they says no shipping outside USA and Canada..
And here, of course, an Indian clone.

[edit] the Agilent U1731[2]A, Limp, Atlas lcr-40, B&K 878A-879, are light-years away from the capabilities of the M3..
..that said, the U1732A is not bad.[/edit]

-Such items need to be listed in the WHITE market, after first meeting the requirements of posting there.

You would of course be most welcome to post there, and your item looks very interesting, but A couple of forum users have indicated that they're uncomfortable with any users getting 'free advertising' here while others do not.

With that in mind, I've edited your post.

Thanks for your understanding,

Yes the guy is a bit here on the spamming side,
but I must say, just received today his LCR meter, its pretty darn good, true lab-grade unit.
