Default Milesmoor Condenserscope

Has anyone used one of these? It has two magic eye tubes, the kind that used to be a tuning aid on some higher end valve radios.

Its a wheatstone bridge to check the rating of a unknown capacitor.
Magic eye tells you when the reading of your mF scale is same as the capacitor your testing.
Then it has 2 more features to check so it doesnt have archovers and leakage.
Nice unit restore it and check youre capacitors !!
No more guessing what NAPA just sold you.
