Title: Transistor Tester Easter Egg
Post by: Bio77 on August 29, 2021, 12:07:41 AM
I bought a transistor tester on Amazon and had a chance to use it last night.  When I put the battery in I saw the Autobot sticker.  I  thought that was random.  Then I powered it on  ;D ;D

You're right, didn't think of that.  If I hear rustling in my garage tonight, I know it's an Autobot doing recon.

So are autobots c-b-e or b-c-e layout?  That's what I want to know.

My tester is a little older, but it must have the same SW. It's very handy. Sometimes mine glitches when you throw a tranny in there you know to be working and gives a "no, none" error code. I throw an electro cap in there, test it, and it seems to snap out of it.
