Introduction to Oscilloscopes - Make: Podcast
An Oscilloscope is an electronic measurement devices that is handy to have in the workshop for observing the characteristics of a circuit in real time, debugging, and hardware hacking.
This may not seem like the sexiest thing ever, but oscilloscopes are necessary for testing/troubleshooting electronic equipment such as the ballast load controllers XelaTeco produces. MAKE gives a nice intro to the O-scope, plus lists several tutorials.
