13. First – What are we measuring? How has generator technology changed?
25. Here’s Where It All Started… A simple incandescent light bulb was actually the very first ESU “Analyzer” to be used. Some major ESU manufacturers still use light bulbs for certain types of go / no-go output tests as well as “tissue response” test loads due to the filament impedance change characteristics to applied high frequency energy.

63. RF Current Measurement in its simplest form (1 st Generation Analyzers)… RF Current vs: Voltage Measurement
69. RF Current vs: Voltage Measurement “ When comparing readings measured with a V 2 /R device to readings measured with an I 2 R device, total measurement difference will likely be larger than 35%, due to different methods of deriving power.”
