LCR-P1 Tester: Upgrade From TC-1?

Too big! 14mm thick that guy. Probably end up interfering with the JST XH connector too: 74's about 9mm longer than I'd go.

in these T/C-x jobbies that's got convenient self-piercing technology in it!

Nah. The cold solder blobs are pretty blunt.

I didn't measure mine. Just mental estimation off memory/not caring and picking a ridiculous capscity. One could easily deleter the jst or solder in a jst cable and wrap it around from the front of the PCB.
Definitely easy and cheap to upgrade that little 300mah jobbie though.
 
Ol cannabis cigarette victory here likes to brag. Too thick, they say. Too long, they say. Nah. He gon' make it fit.

Sheitteeee. I can't talk. Mines two dimensional.
 
@Stickman393 I actually checked out that 1100mAh battery that’s in one of yours- people are complaining it doesn’t hold a charge… doh! I was gonna snag one. Have you noticed any major differences in the battery life of your two TC1s?
 
Honestly? The big battery does last longer. Never knew why before.

Batteries are...eh...fickle. You might see that there's a protection circuit board that the leads are soldered to on all of these: this disconnects the battery once it reaches a certain low voltage state in order to prevent over-discharge.

Most common issue with these is that they end up in a drawer when they're dead, then someone goes to change em up...suddenly the battery can't hold much of a charge any more. You can't drain these until they're flat: they *really* don't like that.

I wonder if some of those reviewers may have treated theirs badly, or perhaps they were simply held in storage for too long and not sufficiently pre-charged.
