portable oscilloscopes

[Darkghost]

Im just lookin around for a price of one does anyone know if you can get one for under €100? or are they used in the paranormal Investigating?

[lotsapockets]

what were you thinking of using one for, we do use spectral analysis for sound the are a number of free programs available on the web that work well, you can also get software to turn a pc or laptop into an oscilloscopes. Yes they can be used depending on the experiments that are being run.

What re they? I imagine they oscillate something lol

Even on E-Bay, you're looking at 400 for them!

But as Tony said, if you're looking to do sound analysis for a couple of euros you can use your laptop as the same thing mainly!

My multimeter measures Hz but have never used that part of it. It doesnt show a graph though is digital. Wouldnt those things only work if they were directly touching the current?

Small pocket sized torch. I have a small shockproof LED torch that is my little baby. Fits anywhere.
