Low cost tool means something like this?:http://eu.banggood.com/Wholesale-Warehouse-DIY-M12864-Graphics-Version-Transistor-Tester-Kit-LCR-ESR-PWM-wp-Eu-986954.ht…
For repair, Tenma 72-2605 cannot give me any clue if a capacitor is good or bad. I am not asking big accuracy but to can understand which is good and which not.
I am afraid I don't understand how can a cap be calibrate, but I'll looking for tis on youtube.

It's about £3000 but still can't measure one cap accurately if its in parallel with another !
