Beware of cheap underperforming clones

As of 2022 there are many badly performing clones on the market. V2/3GHz NanoVNA uses parts like ADF4350 and AD8342 which are costly and clones have been cutting costs by using salvaged or reject parts.

See official store and look for V2 Plus4/V2 Plus4 Pro versions only to avoid getting a bad clone. We have stopped selling V2.2 versions since October 2020, so all V2 hardware that are not Plus or Plus4 are not made by us and we can not guarantee performance.

Metal case

Hi, group.

I've just received NanoVNA V2. It is a great product, and works no problem.

But mina cames without metal case, and Iven't been able to locate the metal case alone for it.

Can anybody post a link?

TIA

Right now the only way to get a metal case V2 is a clone, e.g. the 3.2
inch "black gold" one on banggood. If you just need a case there are
also 3D printed case designs here:

The V2 Plus4 (4 inch display one) will probably come with a metal case,
but it'll depend on whether we can solve the signal reflection issue
(worsened isolation above 2.7GHz due to reflections from the enclosure
walls).

There are some issues reported on other sites stating that metal cases are creating performance issues .
