I actually forgot I have a DE-5000 lol. I had to look it up and it recognized it. That is what I use at home. In the lab I use the Reed R5001. Both are great.
Regarding utilizing social media, perhaps it is a generational thing. I'm making an assumption here, but I'd wager I'm probably younger than most in this group. Dave Jones and the EEVBlog were some of my first resources for getting into electronics. There are a lot of great EE YouTubers. But yes, just like anything on the internet, you have to be mindful of your sources and cross-reference.
