'Megger' (Not) Insulation tester - good buy?

[Yorkie]

Coincidentally when David posted the question about the VC60B+ insulation tester, I had just decided to order one. (As it happens, not from the supplier in the link, but another ebay shop who ship from within the UK rather than direct from China).

It arrived this morning and I have had a play with it. Although its operation is fairly obvious, my only criticism is that the instruction book is only in Chinese! I have emailed the seller to ask if an English version is available, just in case I have missed anything obvious.
It looks like it should prove useful!

I don't know how many pages the book has Andy, and of course you can't cut and paste the text into an online translation progam, but such programs do accept two styles of Chinese - 'Chinese Simplified' and 'Chinese Traditional'. Quite a challenge, given that Chinese consists of pictograms and doesn’t have an alphabet as such. (Maybe it translates it from Chinese to 'Double Dutch, then you have to translate it again to get it into English!). I see that Yahoo 'Bablefish' which I've always found works well enough, has been taken over by Microsoft and swallowed up into Bing:

As to the lowest test voltage of the V60B 'megger' being 250V, I'm probably talking tosh (a habit of mine which I've honed to perfection), but I wonder if there's any way of constructing an outboard voltage divider to reduce the voltage by say a factor of ten, down to 25V? After all, they do that internally with the voltage ranges. I wonder if it applies a DC voltage, or AC, and if so, what frequency?

It's all Chinese to me

Do you have a link to the UK suppier please Andy?
