i own a wiggy brand voltage tester from klein. its a classic tool but the quality just isnt there. if you cant afford to buy the fluke t+pro tester buy a knopp k60 tester. the knopp testers are very rugged and are only about 40 dollars

Last time I looked, Fluke's T+Pro was $85. Can't beat that:confused:

buy it. its about 90 dollars or so and you will love it. it does have a digital display for voltage but it only puts a reading there at more than 10 volts. you wont disapointed with this tester. flashlight is handy too not super bright but helps find a breaker in a panel with ease.

First response,....It vibrates with voltage indication, and that function is not switchable. When I get around enough juice, the last thing I want is a device vibrating in my hand!!!!!!! Other cons? None, except I like a full featured DMM for troubleshooting. $85+, and CAT rated for their T+Pro? That's better than no politics. Do NOT reply to that last sentence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the difference between construction and maintenance/automation. Someone calls you in for an in-depth investigation,...you think I am going to walk in with just my T5?

Very least on a maintenance call: Fluke 87V, 337, 1507, IR gun, bag of leads/attachments and PPE. That's just what's in the bag.

thats a lot of gear
 
I dunno. I've walked into a lot of calls with nothing more than a 10-in-1, T5, and a mini mag light. That gets me started enough to see what I really need from the truck.

Rooftop work is a long ways away from the parking lot!!!!!

EP, you say, "Alot of gear?" That's just merely frontline. If I showed you as a collector what I have, you'd have me commited:grin:
