RIQINXIN Socket Tester Electrical Receptacle Tester AC Outlet Plug 3 Prong Circuit Tester Pack of 1

I needed an extra receptacle tester because I always misplace mine. This one works, and does what it should and so I am giving it 5 stars. One thing it lacks, which I didnt notice before ordering is a gfci tester button. You can get one that includes this feature from other name brands for a lower price. Ill keep this one in my toolbox but probably order one that has the gfci button.

The first one I got was defective. It kept saying that my neutral was open which I know was incorrect and I even went through the trouble of verifying the house wiring. So I think it was just a dead bulb in the tester, or some similar defect. I sent it back and got a good working one. You can see in the picture how the Klein tester shows that there are no issues with the outlet while this product indicate that there is an open neutral. Quality Issues is not what you want on equipment you use for testing, so my recommendation is to just pay a little more for a well know brand one like Klein.

Ive had similar devices like this in the past and this works just like them. There are 3 lights and based on which lights come on when you plug it in you can tell if your outlet is wired correctly. Its a great tool for a quick check. This one works well and I seems to work well.

Are the electrical outlets in your home wired correctly and safely? How would you know? Its possible for them to still work, but, not be correct and safe. With this tool, it is easy and the work of seconds to confirm that all the wiring is as it should be. Simply plug this into the outlet and look at which lights turn on - theres a straightforward explanation right on the tool of what they mean, what you want to see, and whats wrong if you see something else. This way, you dont have to trust your contractor or electrician to not make a mistake and wire things backwards - you can know for sure that the polarization is correct and grounding is safe, without you having to open up the outlets or touch any wires yourself. Every homeowner should have one of these. The body of the tester is hard plastic, so, unless you drive over it with your car, itll probably outlast you. Recommended!

This continuity tester is easy to use to test my grounding products. I like that it uses 2 AAA batteries, which are easy to install. And I also like that you can plug the end of the wire into the side of the tester to test the wire itself. Great product.

This tester is a must have for any homeowner. Dont rely solely on a NCV tester when dealing with outlets. This will let you know at a glance if your outlet has power and whether its wired correctly. This is as basic as you can get for an outlet tester but most of the time thats all you need. It doesnt have a GFCI test rip button (although it will test a GFCI outlet just fine). Ive had one of these in my toolbox for many years. Recently the ground prong broke loose so it was time to get a new one. This one did the trick.

Accurate and works well!

This tool is very handy to make sure the outlets are wired properly as well as make sure GFCIs are in working order and the Test and Reset buttons work. I would recommend this item to all DIYers as well as apprentice electricians. This tester gives me confidence that I correctly wired up all my outlets including the GFCIs! The lights work and are easy to read indicating if it is wired correctly or if it is improperly wired. The is comparable to Klien, 3M or Ideal outlet testers.

I have no baseline for various faults in my outlets. It seems to light up when you plug it in, but I am not sure about the accuracy. It is also a bit flimsy for tighter outlets and I’m concerned it will break.

Seems to work well enough, but something is inside the casing and it rattles when you shake it. Call me old fashioned, but I dont like loose things inside my electrical equipment. Not sure Im totally comfortable using this on the regular.
