Klein Tools VDV500-820 Cable Tracer with Probe Tone Pro Kit for Telephone, Internet, Video, Data and Communications Cables

Easy to use and a must for all electricians. Well worth the money

I may have missed it but Im not sure why in all the verbiage on the site they just dont say FOR LOW VOLTAGE CIRCUITS ONLY and or NOT FOR 120 VOLT CIRCUITS. You have to wait for the product to arrive and then read the manual which is quit clear about the volt usage. Returning product.

Sound is very low. Im a audio guy and could use more volume. Other than that it worked okay. Nothing special.

Easy to use and very effective

Price is little high

Works great

Its a good quality product, feels solid. My only complaint is this would be so much better if it could work with an active network instead of only inactive wiring

As you can see from the photo I had a mess to figure out. This tool contributed zero to trace these wires. I probably wasn’t using the tool properly. I ended up tracing voltage the old way to gets all these circuits to work properly.

The speaker is very loud. The probe will pick up tone from a couple of feet away then be blaring when you touch the copper of the cable. It will pick up some cross talk so make sure youre hitting the copper. Ive use it daily on both shielded and unshielded with no issues. Works with previous models and other tone gerators. If you need a new tip its less than $10 on home depots website. Replacement Tip for Probe-Pro Tracing Probe Model #VDV999-068. My only wish is that the probe had a lock button or a push for tone button rather than always on.

I dont like that tone does not pass if there is continuity on the other end. i use this for toning possibly live jacks (Phone system, low voltage from phone company) and i have to use my southwire toner so i can get a tone, with the klein probe. Other than that the light is very nice and i like how i dont have to press the button while toning, just turn it on and go.
