jdmbb95 Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 Crap. I hope the site I bought this scope from is legit. I was on this other site: http://www.vellemanusa.com/us/enu/product/view/?id=521603 and it had this sign: I hope mine is not fake china. How do I know if mine is fake? i think you did get a fake http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/01nocomment8so.gif I don't know why the fuck roscoe posted this. He didn't even use the scope or calibrated or tested it. no need to blame roscoe cause you bought from a non listed velleman dealer site. go to http://www.vellemanusa.com/us/enu/home/ and if you go under dealers http://www.kitsusa.net doesn't show up. but for sure on the dealer list for NJ it shows the site roscoe posted where he got his from http://www.vellemanusa.com/us/enu/dealer/s...id=3&step=3 its the 6th one down on the dealer list. http://www.tequipment.net/ its not roscoe's fault you tried to save a few bucks on it and got a illegal chinese copy. Shut the fuck up newb just because you got a cheap knock off and i havent fucked with mine yet doesnt give you the right to call me out! I hope my name taste like shit in your mouth!!!! http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/mad.gif LOL i cant wait to order mine in a few days and im getting it from the site roscoe posted http://www.tequipment.net/

jdmbb95 Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 awww fuck shit shit. i bought from kitsusa hopefully i get a good one tho. they didnt have that warning tag anywhere at least i did some more searching on the velleman site and on there dealer list it comes up with a company called OMNITRON ELECTRONICS INC. http://www.omnitronelectronics.net/phpstore/index.php not sure if kitsusa is a part of them but the site looks the same. so if they are the same company then they are on the velleman dealer list. http://www.vellemanusa.com/us/enu/dealer/s...id=3&step=3 scroll down and it shows OMNITRON ELECTRONICS INC. moh.vze.com i take back what i said about you getting a knock off if kitsusa is a part of OMNITRON ELECTRONICS INC but i still dont think you should blame roscoe for you getting a bad unit. ok looks like they are the same http://www.omnitronelectronics.net/phpstor...contact-us.html

I was just pissed off that this thing. The fucking scope kept giving me ugly clipped signals on my eD amp even at lowest gain. I have no fucking clue why the fuck it's doing this. No matter what gain level I tried, it would either show me a little clipped wave. Sometimes it would only show a clip wave at the negative peak of the wave and show no clip at the top positive waves. I have no clue wtf is going on. No way my highly built eD amp is fucked up. It would be a pain in the ass for me to send this amp to eD cause shipping is a killer from where I'm located. 5 yr warranty is bullshit when I'm this far away. Well, this is good news that I'm under warranty with the velleman. I did some research and they have a headquarters somewhere in texas. Hopefully I can just send my unit there instead of outside the USA if I need to have them check for defect. I've just posted some pics on their .be site forum for tech support. Hopefully they can figure something out. DC Audio - Singer Alternators - Knukonceptz - XS Power - Hybrid Audio - Rockford Fosgate - Second Skin Audio - SMD - Sundown Audio - Elemental Designs

If you're getting that then your ground clip is probably in the wrong place EDIT: Or your coupling settings might be wrong? 10.x volts fo' life!
moh.vze.com Posted May 11, 2009 Report Posted May 11, 2009 If you're getting that then your ground clip is probably in the wrong place EDIT: Or your coupling settings might be wrong? All I did was stick the probe behind under the battery lid. I left the ground clip hanging. These scopes have a built in ground for when calibrating I think. The guy on the velleman tech support forum keeps telling me that there's nothing wrong with my scope. http://forum.velleman.be/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3053 You're only showing the top 1/2 of the waveform. But please, I an too old and have been repairing and calibrating test equipment for too many years, to care to argue any of this. I have just tried to help you understand the entry level instrument you have purchased. There is nothing wrong with it, you just have to understand it's limitations--which all instruments have, as the are all imperfect... Believe whatever you wish... - cliffyk I just wanted to make sure with the people who have this particular scope to see if you guys are getting the same readings as I am. Wanna chime boon?

Boon Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 I meant the ground clip location when you're trying to check clipping on your amp Yeah it has some overshoot, shit happens, it'll do everything you want 10.x volts fo' life!
zfrerichs Posted May 13, 2009 Report Posted May 13, 2009 i used mine yesterday with the clip just hangin around and it worked fine Roseville, CA
