Klein Tools ET60 Voltage Meter, AC Voltage and DC Voltage Tester, Digital Multimeter Does Not Require Batteries

This multimeter poses a risk. I've purchased 10 Klein products over the years, and this is the most disappointing. I have used the worst multimeter I have ever seen. I have found that the response time from applying the leads to obtaining a visual display or continuity beep is slower than even cheap no-name testers. Due to this and the fact that the black lead became so loose after a couple of days of use, it would occasionally lose contact and fall out. Due to these two issues, users may be at risk of harm when using this device, possibly owing to voltage not being indicated at all times. A customer service representative from Klein acknowledged that these issues were in the design of the meter, but did not want to fix Over the course of my 15 years as an electrician, I have used dozens of different meters, and I would not be comfortable using this tester or trying another model, and I question the quality of Klein meters in general. Fluke or any other brand of test should be used.

The power had indeed been switched off, so I needed a voltage tester to find out if it was indeed off before replacing the light fixtures and outlets in my bathroom. My curiosity about the Klein Tools ET60 caught my attention right away since I am a novice DIYer who doesn't need a meter with all kinds of readings. The fact that it doesn't need a battery and gets its power from whatever it is testing is appealing to me. In this case, the meter would light up if the wires or outlet were 'hot. There is nothing to see on the meter if they are turned off. The AC and DC indicators are clearly marked, as well as voltages up to 600, but there is no audible alarm or notification included in this meter. When you place the sensors in the right places, the device works as it should. Despite this tool's ability to provide a reading of impedance, users cannot be sure of their exact measurements. There is only one simple way to measure that Test it out to see if it is Exactly the same as that. There are caps on the sensors and they lock into place on the back of the bar. There is a replacement lead for every lead. Whenever I need to make simple home repairs or make updates, this is the tool I trust. It's inexpensive and easy to use. I understand being less than happy won't make all users happy, but since most of my work is done at home This is the perfect gift for me.

Klein is typically a good tool for work, so I ordered it for something I use every day.

As a result, I bought it because it fit all my needs. In short, it works well, and if you don't need precise measurements on DC, it would be a good light duty meter for you. What I dislike most about the leads is that they keep falling There are weak connectors on the lead, and the bottom of the meter has a bulky connector, resulting in them slipping out of your bags every time you take them out. Another problem is that the meter only reads on whole volts on DC. It will take another meter if you want to test a 9v battery or something like that.

A voltage test is conducted A multi meter does not have a low Z indicator, this one does. 125 volts, it has an input impedance of 16k ohms. As it will load the circuit, it can trip a GFI. By looking at the voltage displayed, you can be assured that the circuit will work.

I have used a Greenlee DVC-2000 before In the end, I finally had to find a replacement after having used 10 for more than a decade. It is impossible to make a meter with all the same features, but this one has nearly all the same features at a fraction of the price. It has performed as marketed after a few weeks in the field. A major plus is that it is made of strong materials and is easy to use. There are some things that could be improved. The voltage appears to be displayed a bit slowly. Its main disadvantage is that, unlike most other voltage meters, it does not make a noise when voltage is Although it doesn't necessarily break the deal, this is a bit difficult at first. As well, I would like to see an indicator light that indicates the power is on. Its user-friendly digital display is easy to read, and a backlight can be optionally added for added operation above suspended ceilings. According to the description, the GFCI test function works. It is very convenient that the probes, once the unnecessary guards are removed, mount at the proper distance for testing outlets. These work great on outlets that are tamper-proof! It would have earned a five-star rating if there had been audible voltage present. The meter is designed to be used on a daily basis.

I don't like it. The voltage is tested using a digital display that very slowly displays the voltage without any other sound or flutter. The continuity beep is very slow and delayed, making testing hard. Furthermore, the lead for the test is extremely short and does not fit well in the This is a very large and bulky tester. Neither for the pros nor for the cons.

". It is nice to have replaceable standard With such a low inductance (no solenoid), this unit will not cause damage to semiconductors by producing a voltage spike. As well, the input impedance of the tester is quite low, so it will not display "ghost" voltage as a neon lamp tester would. Despite this one minor point, the device does not read odd voltages (non-American), such as the 380 volts used by products from Europe. If you work on such a power, you MUST make sure no power is present.
