Does this meter give the capillary plasma value?

I don't know, because I don't use the meter. The battery never worked and when we called FreeStyle they told us that Amazon is not a official distributer, therefore they were not able to help me set up the meter. I tried following the user manual, but with the battery being bad I could not use the meter. I tried contacting Amazon but unable to fix.

Yes, it has markings in ml broken down further in smaller fractions. Technically you can go down further than 0.05 ml but precision will suffer, although accuracy will still be reasonable. For 0.05 ml, both will be reasonable.

Yes....this device will give a read out of the cap which will be used to determine if the cap is defective based on the the rating indicated on the cap.eg: if the cap is rated at (4700 uf) and a reads (3500 uf )....cap is defective.

No. This only tests for ph, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate. You can get a cheap hydrometer here on Amazon. Just do a search for it.

The readings are accurate. Older glucose monitors measure blood sugar in whole blood, whereas the TRUEResult meter with its TRUETest strips report the blood sugar as a plasma (not whole blood) value. Blood sugars reported by your doctor's lab, or a hospital lab, are also reported as plasma glucose values, so the results on this meter and its strips will more precisely match your doctor's reports and values. Plasma glucose is typically 10-12% higher than glucose levels reported from whole blood-based testing meters. You can always obtain "control solutions" with known glucose levels to check and ensure accuracy. I hope this information is helpful. The readings are accurate.

Not that I am aware of but it seems to give just the right amount. Although, I think it actually depends on how long you hold your hand under the sensor.

The meter only reads whole blood collected after you stick yourself with a "Microlet" which draws the blood. Then a test strip is placed in the meter and the end of the strip touches the drop of blood on you finger. The meter tells you when the strip has collected sufficient blood to test. The meter then shows you what your blood glucose level is. Thus, the only pain is felt when the poke yourself with a gadget that shoots the Microlet into your finger. You rarely feel anything and the blood flow stops immediately. The Bayer Contour kit comes with everything you need to take and record a glucose reading. Good luck!

I checked it with my other meter and it appears to be already calibrated. Both of my meters match.

Hello,This is a great analog meter which is perfect for testing all different types of diodes but not a great tool for testing capacitors. I would highly recommend a ESR meter for testing Capacitors. Hope this helps.

I am not sure I understand your question. I have tested numerous liquid samples for fluoride. It is my understanding this meter tests for the fluoride ion: not a chemical but an ion.

My meter worked fine for the GU and uric acid with the old style test strips which have the blood intake at the end of the strip. However, when I used it with the new style test strips with the blood intake on the side it seems to be reading low for the uric acid test. I have not tried the new GU strips. I have tried to get the control solutions to verify the meter but no one seems to sell them. You should not need the control solutions to get readings. You do need to put the correct chip in the chip slot for what ever test you are making. If you are not getting any readings you should probably return the meter. I am also concerned it may not work correctly with the new style strips. Sincerely, Frank Huling

No, it does not measure F directly. There are methods on the internet which explain how to build a simple circuit into which you can insert the capacitor and then measure the voltage and current to calculate the capacitance. This meter can measure those parameters.

The meter only has a guage that reads, 0 to 2000 on top and 1 to 10 on the bottom of the line...I only paid less than $4.00 for the meter including shipping from China... It has saved me from over watering. The meter seems to be working ok but I don't know how accurate it is... For a cost of less than $5.00 it can't be too percise...

It does not measure capacitance. All you can do with this meter is determine if the capacitor is open or shorted. Leakage and value cannot be determined. Buy a good digital meter that reads capacitance.

You have to calibrate it. It was beyond me. But i had a friend who'd done well in chemistry. He was unsuccessful in getting a reading that made sense, but I blame that more on him, than the reader. I would look for a pre-calibrated meter for someone with limited tech skills. i needed it to test PH in pond water. I have several mud ponds. The PH is a little different in each of them.

Yes, it does. The top reading on the display is your pulse rate and the reading below that is your percentage of Oxygen Saturation. Hope this helps.
