Review: Perfect design, perfect price, built tough. I love it. - This is a must have for working on electronics. I purchased it to identify and determine continuity for the abs system on my vehicle. Within minutes I had identified two broken circuits (and was able to fix the problem). I'm sure many of you reading this will have a multimeter that gives an audible continuity check, but I found it difficult to use in certain situations. This tool does one thing, but does it really well. There's no audible indication of a complete d circuit, but I find the light to work great and is not annoying like the beep on the multimeter, especially if you're using it for multiple circuits. The design is perfect. An all-in-line design makes testing hard to reach wires quick and easy to test. The price can't be beat and it arrived within two days of order. I'm upset with myself that I hadn't purchased one sooner. I can think of many situations where it would have made the job much easier. If you're looking at it, you probably need it. Buy it, you won't regret it. Very sturdy design, superb quality build and materials. The only thing I would modify would be the light itself, it's a soft white. I prefer the cooler (bluer) color temperature of LEDs, but that a personal preference.
Review: Good product at a low price. - I was nervous to buy this tester because I read so many reviews about it being poorly made. Mine is great. Works well, has good fit and finish, absolutely no problems at all.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have a buzzer?**
A: No, it just lights up when connected to a continuous circuit. Not to be confused with a voltage sensor, which detects voltage present in a circuit. The continuity tested must be only used with a non energized circuit.

**Q: Is the bulb LED or incandescent?**
A: To Access battery/bulb compartment unscrew the tip on corded end

**Q: Will this damage ICs like SMD ICs or through hole ones?**
A: Good day Alain. to answer your question. No, I would not recommend this device for IC's SMD. Please enjoy your day.

**Q: Does this have any cover or protection for the sharp tip?**
A: Yes, it does.  It has a clear plastic sleeve that covers the probe.  The probe's tip is not pointed like an awl.  Instead it's a conical point with concentric rings around it designed, I presume, to prevent injury to the user.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A simple tool that does its job well
*by R***F on January 3, 2026*

I have owned a continuity tester for decades, but I have never needed it. This week I needed it, and when I assembled it and put in the batteries the test light turned on and stayed on like it was a flashlight without an off switch. Not good for a continuity tester. I went to my local big box hardware and building materials store, and all they had available was electric multitesters for four times the price of this instrument and it would take time to learn how to use it. So I ordered this one. I read a lot of reviews that were critical of this instrument, and I appreciate the fact that they told me what to do if it had been wrongly assembled. But when my instrument came today, a full day sooner than it was promised, it was easy to load up and use. It is a terrific value at this price. I knew how to use it as soon as I got the batteries loaded. It was beautifully packaged in clear stiff plastic, but you could slice your hand open if you opened this packaging in a way that permitted it to cut you. I used heavy duty metal snips and worked slowly. Even this difficult packaging is an advantage. I bought my non-working continuity tester at a going out of business sale at an old fashioned hardware store. It was packaged in a soft see through plastic sleeve with a zip lock opener. I think someone was missing a part from their tester and took a part that I needed to make mine work. I don't like the modern packaging in hard plastic, but that makes it impossible for someone to remove a vital part without showing a lot of evidence on the packaging. My thanks to Amazon for very quick service, and for also publishing critical reviews so that I would have known what to do if my instrument had been wrongly assembled.
