A good device for multimeters and analyzers

The instructions weren't very clear and I wasn't sure how to use it. Once I figured it out, he does his job very well! Accuracy was great.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Some little things

Circuit breaker reset failed.

Internal breaker described as manual reset (as it should be) but it is not. This faulty function puts your $1,000 car's computers at risk of accidental destruction. I'm not sure if I'll be safe and throw it in the trash or keep it to myself and risk it.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Minus present

Pretty impressed! รข Tools for diagnosis, testing and measurement

The device is good for checking fuses and even the starter motor in a car. The only thing you might try using this is in a car, but since it draws power from the battery (assuming you're using it when the car is NOT on), you can drain the battery by using 12V put on the car. to plan.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

Better than a multimeter for most applications.

only gave it 4 stars for ease of use because I'm not an electrical engineer, it will take me some time to figure out how to use it properly. I have been trying to find a short in my reverse lights not working will most likely need to get in touch with you apart from the wire is very long and goes to the back of my truck.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Expensive

As good or better than Powerprobe

I work extensively with automotive electrical systems and have used a multimeter and test lamp for over 20 years. When my colleague introduced me to the force probe, my life changed. He let me borrow it and use it as much as I wanted, but I wanted it to myself. no flag tool). Looking for a cheaper alternative I came across Autool and after a few weeks of use I can honestly say it's every bit as good as the Powerprobe. It still feels a little cheap, but so does the original.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Protection

cheap but not cheap for the cheap you get.

The 1st came defective (so I thought) because the tip was screwed and turned endlessly. I couldn't even use it. MINUTES AFTER I ordered a replacement. Guess what the same problem is. When you unscrew the probe tip, it twists and never tightens. It's useless this way. Obviously they can't get this easy part right. Who needs a wobbly tip. Basically, it's cheap and less expensive than a performance probe, but it's not cheap for what you actually get. The plastic of the tool looks and feels cheapโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some little things
