| I want to purchase an oscilloscope to measure charging voltage spikes while driving a car. I need to log large quantities of data during this test. I also need to capture these spikes in small time frames (ms). Is this the correct tool for the job? And will it have detailed instructions for installation? Thanks, Larry |

Hello Larry
Thank you for your post.
As you are interested in data capture over time, your application calls for a data logger rather than an oscilloscope which is included in the kit you mrntioned.
Please take a look at our data logger range here

Also have a look at the PicoLog software - you can download and use in demo mode to get an idea of the capability on offer. |

Hi Larry,
Let me offer an opposing point of view
The new capabilities of PicoScope 6 and the 3000 series automotive scopes allow for unprecedented high speed data capture over long periods of time. Here is an example:
