Greenlee Volt tick tester......last post..sorry

[PetrosA]

My sentiments exactly.:smile:

The (2) Greenlee tracers that I've owned take AAA batteries.
I've had a problem with the on-off switch on both of those, so I'd like to find one more durable.
One that uses AA or AAA batteries.

Fluke. I love it.

Santronics. I believe is the brand I prefer?? They are red with a white tip. Have no audio, but they also have no on/off switch to remember to turn on!

No. I use a Fluke myself.

Whatever one you get, get the kind that takes AA or AAA batteries. Those little watch batteries are nowhere around when your ticker goes dead.

The Hioki takes 3 LR44's. I also carry a laser pointer that takes 3 LR44's. I carry 3 extra in my briefcase that I get at the grocery store across the road for around a $1.20 each. They last a long time.

The one I got Al was afraid of electricity. He would turn it on, hold it to a wire and it shut off. Got many a chuckle watching him get plenty ticked about that. Not sure how many pieces that thing is in now, but I know its more than one.

ditto that, took my greenlee and threw it in the trash

Fluke all the way.

Also, the new Klein one they sell at HD is pretty nice too. I'd say it's on par with the Fluke.

Just bought the klein one, i like the green led that stays on when its turned on but the cap has to be reseated every now and then or it gets flakey. Side note, I almost choked when i saw the lamp on a shovel, That Is Great!!! I'm joining the AL fanclub

The guy has wicked mad skill.

best part about al is that no matter how much hard work he does or how much digging he does he always has on a crisp white shirt
