Description of ๐Ÿš— ANCEL PB100 Automotive Circuit Tester Probe Kit - Vehicle Diagnostic Tool with Car Digital Volt Meter, 12V and 24V Electrical Power Testing, AVOmeter, AC/DC Voltage, Diode Current, Resistance Detector

WIDE APPLICATION - ANCEL PB100 circuit tester is a fast and efficient electrical scanning probe, works on all 12-24V vehicle electrical systems, including cars, boats, trailers, fuel pumps, relays, and more. A MUST-HAVE TOOL - Designed for voltage & polarity testing, continuity testing, signal circuit testing, supply power/activating components, trailer lights & connections testing. It features red/green polarity indicators, follows & locates short circuits, and checks bad Ground contacts. 4 WORKING MODES - DC Voltage mode for reading the DC voltage with a resolution of 0.1 volts; AC Voltage mode for reading the Max. voltage, the Min. voltage, and frequency; Resistance mode for reading the resistance between the tip and auxiliary ground lead; Diode mode for checking forward bias or reverse bias. SAFETY & DURABLE - An auto circuit breaker makes this tool very safe and sustainable and its short-circuit protection protects the device from overload. A quick self-test is a must before starting to test a circuit or component, which ensures your tool is in excellent condition. FRIENDLY DESIGN - A friendly navigate user menu makes it easier to operate, even a beginner without a manual. Built-in 2 headlights allow you to work in the dark area; an extra 20 feet extension cord allows reaching wires in or out of the vehicle or some congested places; a rugged carry case to store the tool whenever.

Hoping for Current reading

Great tool but wish it showed electricity. It would be easy to add a simple ammeter to provide 12 volts at the push of a button. This would be a great way to fix faulty components like fuel pumps, washer fluid pumps, window regulator motors and other load sensitive parts. If the new fuel pump draws 3 amps and the one in the car draws 20 amps or more but still works, the ammeter will immediately tell you there is a problem. The only reason I mention it in this review is because the box it comesโ€ฆ

Checking voltage (DC and AC), resistance and diodes in one useful device

I was willing to pay a much higher price for a branded probe, but after reading the specs of this voltage probe I decided to take a chance. It doesn't disappoint me. It has become my go-to power tool for auto repair, although I have other gauges including Fl*** and other brands. The ability to apply a positive voltage or ground to the test circuit is fantastic and the ability to represent AC current and the diode test function make it a complete test tool. The 20ft wire is great, and its tipโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is OK!
Cons
  • Appearance

Simply a tool to identify electrical problems in your car

I know some people think it's just a jumping multimeter but it has some features that will make troubleshooting a lot easier for you . It can apply power or ground on command, allowing you to ground the circuit or apply power to the circuit to check for problems. This feature alone costs money. This will also tell you the voltage of the circuit you are testing compared to the voltage of the car battery. Very handy when looking for bad cable connections. I highly recommend it. UPDATE - I haveโ€ฆ

  • Best in its niche

Questionable reliability

I had high hopes for this diagnostic tool. The main use was for the home but was first tested in a professional environment to ensure the product is trustworthy and reliable. The gold standard is the "PP" signature block. So it's good that this is a decent device and the performance specs seem accurate. Hertz readings are questionable at times, but close enough if samples are taken long enough. The graph gives a rough but acceptable picture of the values. Poorly! Both of my devices have what Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • A few little things

Nice probe, should be a bit cheaper

So I've been using Ancel at work for quite some time. I work as a diesel mechanic and do a lot of electrical troubleshooting and I need to figure out if certain wires are getting voltage, how much they're getting and if they're grounded. This probe works wonders and has completely replaced my simpler test light probe. Pros - 40ft Depth Sensor Test Line - has more features than the basic power probe. Disadvantages - a certain time after connecting the probe to the battery to turn it on. , theโ€ฆ

Easy to use - Bright LCD display - Audible and visual notifications

This is the second circuit tester kit I have bought. I found the former very useful for tracking down pesky electrical problems, but I didn't usually have it on hand when I was out and visiting repair shops while I was at work. So I bought this ANCEl PB100 car chain test kit to take with me while the other one stays at home. The circuit tester kit includes all items included in the description including: * 1 PB100 circuit probe * 1 probe tip * 1 extension. Cable (20 ft) * 1 set of battery clips

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
