Siglent Technologies SDL1020X-E Programmable DC Electronic Load，1 Channel,150 V/30 A, 200 W

I have only had this a couple of months and used it only a few times. Performs well, easy to set up and is a really nice accessory when you are used to scrounging for load resistors to test something.

I am an EE that has used electronic loads all my career. I have recently been setting up a lab in my basement as I work full remote now. These Siglent brand equipment are really nice. I also have an oscilloscope. The load is very easy to use and seems very accurate. I verified it with my trusty Fluke 87V.

Great UI, works flawlessly out of the box and I feel like it looks and feels more more valuable than what I purchased it for. I kind of regret not getting the higher power model

My own ignorance. This can do way more than what I needed. So I returned it no issues. I have several of their other bench top equipment which is great.I will say when this unit arrived it was already overdue for calibration per the certificate. Probably been sitting on a shelf for god knows how long. As far as my testing went it was still calibrated but I know that bugs some people that’s why I mentioned it.

I’m a hobbyist and also an impulse buyer, the item does what is states and seems to do it well but I don’t use very often. it’s nice to have. If the nob feels like it has some friction on the turns just put it out a little till it clears the sides that fixes that. Good luck

I bought an SDL 1020X-E programmable DC Electronic Load. This was my first Siglent product, and my first impression was VERY positive. Well-written, clear, English instructions and - as far as I'm concerned - a solid, robust piece of equipment.That said, the 'new' product I received was tested/calibrated back in Oct 2022 (well over 15 months before I received it), and the unit would be out of calibration -by their calculation - within two months. NOTE: there were easy-to-read notes on calibration dates included that highlighted this issue).I contacted Siglent via email but received no reply. I then connected to a Chat interface on their website, hoping to find a way to replace it with a calibrated unit perhaps. However, "Jim" on the Chat interface told me my only option was to return my unit back to Amazon and then buy a new unit from the Siglent website - and (in theory) I would get a new unit that was within the calibration interval.Of course - this was just a set of hassles on my end (hence three stars)- but I was nevertheless happy to have some resolution. On a positive note - the fact that Siglent had a well-documented calibration set of information - was a major positive. I'm probably going to buy directly from their website.

This is a great product loaded with many features for a reasonable price. I find this to be true about all Siglent products. Good value for the hobbyist.

Specs look very good on the instrument but cant be trusted...The current readings were way off. I measured 0.18A while it reported 0.113A and I used multiple instruments, including the Signlent power supply meter. Do a basic check of the current/voltages before using for your testing. Theres no way to calibrate this instrument either. Software is up to date with the latest on the Siglent website (1.1.1.21R2).Glad I found this before the return window expired. Amazon is replacing this item.
