Agilent U1272A vs U1273A: The Sunshine Test

peteroakes

I happened to be out back filming content for my summer project, tThe Electronic Referee and I needed to check a voltage on my test rig, I had a choice of an OLED meter or the LCD

 

I decided to video a quick test to see which is most usable in the sunshine. Indoors the OLED is an excellent and readable meter. Specification wise of course there both the same aside from battery life

 

So here is my findings

 

Enjoy

  • Hi Peter,

     

    Good post! My phone is not so great outdoors either, with it's OLED display :-(

    However, I suspect indoors the story might be completely reversed. OLED will probably be viewable from a distance, whereas the reflective LCD might not with it's more limited contrast.

    Also, as I understand, LCDs may not work as well in cold conditions.

    I hear there used to be analog dials, and they used to work very well in all conditions ;-)
