Anyone use one of Tenergy 5 in 1 cell meters?
Was thinking about picking one up to check internal resistance.

This! I have one of these and it works wellYou're better off buying this one, as it cones with a servo testor as well.

Thats funny. I have the Ternergy one, and it doesn't have a servo testor.Right on, for the record the Tenergy does have a servo checker. They both seem similar and the Tenergy had more reviews so I was leaning that way.
I’ll go for the one you dudes recommend and save the $5
The y harness seemed weird, I assume the balance lead doesn’t Provide enough juice to run the servo….IDk about the old ones but the new one can test servos but its not straight forward and you have to have a Y harness to make it work. The CellMeter 8 is easier to use as a servo tester, doesn't need a Y harness, and is cheaper than the Tenergy also. Just my
You plug the single end of the Y harness into the NiXX battery port and then plug the battery and the servo into the Y connector. Then you hold done one of the buttons (I think its the CELL button?) until it changes to a different menu and from there you can change the PPM signal. I think by using the other two buttons on either side of the cell button.The y harness seemed weird, I assume the balance lead doesn’t Provide enough juice to run the servo….
how do you power it to test the servo?

i have the cellmeter 8 but i wasn't aware of this function. how does that work work exactly?I really like how that meter also includes a PPM meter which reads the latency of the radio... I have used this feature to compare frame rates between various brands of aftermarket Rx's to verify quality of signal. I have also used this feature to sniff out faulty wiring where servo connectors tend to go bad over time and need to be replaced where I've invested in a crimping tool as well:

I've never used it on mine so I'm not 100% sure how it works but I'm 98% sure it does. Should be in the manualis there a servo tester on the spektrum programer v2?
I don't have the CellMeter8 but have used the PPM meter in my Sky RC 6 in Onei have the cellmeter 8 but i wasn't aware of this function. how does that work work exactly?
Cool, Ill have to try that out!I don't have the CellMeter8 but have used the PPM meter in my Sky RC 6 in One
Basically you disconnect the servo and plug the meter into Ch1 or any other open channel to get a reading in Hz
Then I used the following conversion to get into milliseconds which is what we call the frame rate for measuring the speed of the Rx:

If you look in the "Notes" column, I listed the framerates in MS for several budget brand radios that I owned at the time where they did not publish their frame rates and compared those to name brands who did publish their frame rates which I verified with other owners of those systems at the track in my area:
