Description of Robinair TIF8800X Combustible Gas Leak Detector

Robinair's TIF8800X Combustible Gas Detector provides a visual and audible signal that increases in frequency as the source of combustible gas or vapor is approached. Simple enough to be operated with just one hand, the TIF8800X is loaded with the kind of advanced features service professionals demand. Adjustable sensitivity levels - as low as 1ppm - via thumbwheel on front of unit, along with an audible 'Gieger Counter' signal and LED leak intensity lights, help you precisely pinpoint leaks. Features: automatic warm up, cordless operation, ergonomic housing with a protective boot to prevent damage, and a 14 inch long, flexible probe for hard to reach places. Includes: rechargeable battery (4hr continuous run time), battery charger, and a padded nylon carrying case to keep the detector protected while not in use; made in USA

SPX TIF8800X best in my review

Husband is plumber and absolutely loves this sniffer. Would recommend and would buy again if it ever dies. Fast shipping and a good price.

Pros
  • Great tool , I use it primarily for finding combustion gases in automotive cooling systems.
Cons
  • The product is relatively heavy and not easily portable

Dead on Arrival in my review

I cannot review whether this unit is good or not. Unfortunately it was dead on arrival. Fully charged it per the instructions and it would not turn on. A replacement was ordered.

Pros
  • Adjustable sensitivity levels - as low as 1ppm - via thumbwheel on front of unit, along with an audible 'Gieger Counter' signal and LED leak intensity lights, help you precisely pinpoint leaks
Cons
  • The detector has a limited lifespan, with components needing replacement after only a few years of use

This looks like the same item I purchased from tiff

This looks like the same item I purchased from tiff. JUST A DIFFERENT SHAPE. PIECE OF CRAP. DO NOT PURCHASE. WILL FAIL (LET YOU DOWN IN A FEW MONTHS) Bad, expensive batteries. FALSE POSITIVES. WILL GET YOU IN TROUBLE. FLORIDA COMPANY REPS BAD. ALL IS BAD. GOING TO SMASH IT WITH A SLEDGE HAMMER. I was embarrassed after it indicated methane gasses in a glass of cream.

Pros
  • My father, the plumber, was very happy with this product.
Cons
  • The device requires regular calibration to ensure accuracy
