Klein Tools VDV500-820 Cable Tracer with Probe Tone Pro Kit for Telephone, Internet, Video, Data and Communications Cables

Instructions not clear, but it’s a great product for tracing wires. It is great with 120volt wires, but make sure power is off to circuit. It is confusing because it says only use on 60volt and under and 20 volt and under for energized wires.

Coming from a electrician of 16 years this is a time saver doing remodel work very easy to use ive used it on several jobs enough to have a good opinion on how good it is and it is very accurate for example you can connect the meter to a home run and use the probe in the panel to find it by runnning it close to breakers would definitely recommend to another electrician as its a must have

Item not working. All came with batteries pre installed and everything. Changed the batteries and still not working. This person that pupal this into a box full of tape, could not just test it before sending it out. Avoid this seller

Nice product but maybe I was over expecting a better way to test wires.

Thank you

Klein anything is usually pretty good. Works for me only issue I’ve had with it was the batteries that came with it were in there backwards thought my unit was busted because it would only stay on if you held down the power button. Probably a fluke thing but after putting them in correctly it works as it should.

Simple to use, works great, nice zippered carrying pouch, durable, and less expensive than fluke. Need I say more?

You simply cannot go wrong with Klein Tools. I have almost everything Klein so I may be biased a bit but I do not need to talk up this product for it to be a quality one. Accurate readings, multiple tone frequencies and great range on the wand has saved me many a headache in someone’s attic trying to trace a wire that, yes, was underneath some spray foam insulation that ran the entire length of the house. This is a must have for my tool kit.

Wish there was a way to turn down the sensitivity, not just the volume. So sensitive it can find wires almost anywhere but it really picks up bleed over too much. Cut wrong wore twice this month be the bleed over signal was being picked up so strong.

It states that its for RJ45 but its not. The only plug that I comes with is an RJ11 and even though you can force an RJ11 in an RJ45 jack, eventually you will damage pins 1 and 8.
