EASY-TO-USE.

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.

Easy setup and accurate. Had two electrical outlets with no power. Used instrument to verify the second one was a slave to the first by toning the hot (black) and common (white). In an outlet box across the room that had power, found an unconnected cable that suspected was to the first dead outlet. Did not know why the cable was disconnected by the prior owner. Toned the black wire of that cable to outlet one hot (black) wire but noted it toned to the common (white) wire too. PROBLEM was short in cable, which is reason they disconnected it. If I didn’t use this tool, I may have connected the cable, powered it up and ended up with a fire before the breaker tripped. GREAT TOOL that I plan to use on my sprinkler system to trace wiring to a dead solenoid.

Its a good quality product, feels solid. My only complaint is this would be so much better if it could work with an active network instead of only inactive wiring

This unit will only trace out open ended wires. if youre trying to trace something connected it will not give a signal. But other than that its a nice unit.
