ESI 307M Fuse Buddy Mini Current Loop

These work really well but dont fit just everywhere. Several times Ive wished that these had a skinnier body that would allow for more clearance and better fitment as well as more applications. When it does fit it works well.

I was thinking this was be a cheaply built novelty item and still hoped it worked long enough to make it worth my while. I was surprised to find the plastic actually feels sturdy and strong and the wire loop is make of a larger gauge wire than I expected. Im glad I bought this.

Finally someone makes devices like this instead of us trying to get a bunch of male and female wire connectors, fuses and wires to do lab scope tests on cars. Just pull out the fuse, use the Current Loop that fits the fuse socket, install the fuse you removed from the vehicle in the side of the Loop, install the Loop back in the fuse socket and test the devise or circuit. Good quality, good size, fast results and cannot damage the vehicle. They just need to make one that fits the low profile mini fuse now.

tall for tight area, works as designed

Used it to check for issues with the lighter socket on the dash, kept blowing the fuse, so replced the fuse with the Fuse Buddy and checked the amp load, worked well...

I know you can touch the multimeter leads across the top of a fuse but this allows the use of an inductive clamp and moving the multimeter closer to where you need to work. Anything to make chasing electrical issues easier is a good thing. I bought a few of these for different fuses.
