Hi,
I have the tektronix oscilloscope TD1002, I find the Tektronix current probe a little bit expensive (A622). I am setting my eyes on the fluke I310S AC/DC current probe, but I am not 100% sure it will be compatible with my oscilloscope. Anyone tried these two combination? thanks

** Either current probe will work with your scope.But be aware, both are low sensitivity HIGH current types - so almost useless for most electronics work.

It may be too late for your budget, but I have a Tek TPS2024,
4-channel scope with fully isolated inputs. So you can scope the voltage drop anywhere, including across any resistor. That's mighty handy for power work.John
I've also looked into getting a decent current probe and they are pricey.
If you really want to keep cost down , I've seen some home brew current probes on the net.
Here's one for example
What I do is use either op-amps or current transformers.
I basically need a current to calculate the power factor, so that link might be the way to go. K
