but for most things, the voltages you're getting should be
fine... though i'm assuming the tester basically has a DMM rather
than a scope, so it's probably significantly worse -- as a
multimeter will generally average things out a bit. A properly used
'scope will let you see a lot more information about just what's
going on.
I'm using a special PSU tester with digital LCD readout
