Review on Fluke LVD2 CT Counter Display by Brandon Gaines

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Below the rating for Fluke. There must have been no field trials.

Pros: - Very budget friendly It's good to have the Fluke name - It's well labeled with limiting parameters around the device and the print is day razor sharp. As with all Fluke instruments. Disadvantages: - no sound display, which was the basis for the invention of NCV detectors. - The single voltage indicator is on one side of the square device, which means the user has to look at their hand and rotate the device to find the activity confirmation light. Not what you need when checking 75+ outlets in 14 homes. - The power button was a very poor choice for a "single purpose, fast task" device. - If left on, the LED will drain the battery overnight. - It is easy to accidentally turn on the pen when using a pen in the same bag and press the power button while putting the pen or pencil back in the bag. Glowing nipple. - The end cap is regularly torn off when taken out of a pocket. A common use for a task is as follows: remove the end cap while trying to get it out of the bag, then remove the rest of the NCV from the bottom of the bag. your bag. Reassemble it, turn it on and hope the battery still has power. Finally, use the device by rotating it to find the indicator light, then turn the NCV back off and ask to hold it in order to dare to put it back in your pocket. That's all the time you spend concentrating on using the tool to protect yourself from electrocution. Xtech will continue to be my choice. Farner does Fluke a serious injustice. This fluke was left as treasure for the next journeyman.
