Impressive Circuit Generator

Based on our own experience, this network and cable tester is a must-have for anyone in the industrial and scientific field. The Triplett HotWire 3388 Circuit Generator is easy to use and incredibly accurate. Its LED display is bright and clear, making it easy to read even in dimly lit areas. The one downside we've experienced is that it can be a bit on the pricey side, but we do believe that the product's quality justifies the cost. Overall, we highly recommend this impressive circuit…

Pros
  • Accurate and easy to use with a clear LED display
Cons
  • The cost may be a bit high for some buyers

Works great for locating dead circuits

I first bought this unit to try and find the wiring for 5 outlets that were not powered and didn't show up in the electrical box. Triplet 3375 Fox & Hound Jr. did great.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

My current house was built in the 1940s. , with cables running through the attic, which is so low that when you opened the hatch you could…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
