Hello again,

I finally got my IR tester from China (took forever just to save a few bucks). It is the SM8124A. Is this an accurate IR tester?

It looks like a 4-wire IR tester. Seen several types of probes so make sure you get ones that look durable.

I looked at that unit, but in several videos I saw there were 3 things I didn't like compared to the YR1030/1035+ or the RC3563.
1. Can't show voltage and IR at the same time.
2. Display is not as stable... reading tended to bounce more.
3. Test lead ONLY no available fixture for 18650.

Being as it is 4-wire and from the video's I seen it should be more accurate at reading IR than most cell capacity testers such as Opus.
