    I ordered this to add to my electricians toolkit. Ive been to houses before to diagnose electrical problems. It can be frustrating when the circuit breakers arent marked inside the panel. So I thought this would come in quite handy. One of those tools you dont use often, but when you need it, it pays for itself. So I tried it out the other day. The outlet had no power. Using the tester, I was able to locate the circuit and it had a GFCI in the panel. I tried the transmitters GFCI test on a couple outlets in our house. The test worked perfectly. Next I tried the receiver paired with the transmitter to locate a breaker in the panel. The first try, I got nothing. I reread the instructions and then double checked the battery. I included a picture of the battery as shipped. I first glanced at it and thought all was good. The battery is shipped wrapped, inside the compartment, but its not connected. You will need to remove the battery, remove the wrapping and plug it in. After connecting the battery, the tester worked perfectly. I tried two outlets and was able to detect their breaker inside the panel. A great tool for identification purpose. The UNI-T transmitter is easy to read. The key is printed right on the tester for reference. I have a similar outlet tester with small LEDs on it. This UNI-T is much easier to see and read, glowing brightly. I tried it on multiple outlets, finding nothing wrong. The UNI-T AC circuit breaker tester and finder is a welcome addition to my toolkit. For the current price of $28, certainly a reasonable price for a tool sure to prove invaluable. Im happy with it and recommend it.

    This works well on standard breakers. It works okay on double circuit breakers, as it can be tough to determine which portion of the double breaker is actually the right one since the sensor head is large enough to cover both. The key in general is to adjust the sensitivity high enough to see the flow of electricity, but as low as possible, so that you can isolate the one circuit breaker that is actually active. The fact that the transmitter unit also functions as a circuit tester, and a GFCI tester, is a nice added feature. One 9v battery is required and is included. It is inside the receiver and must have the plastic wrapper removed and then be connected. The included zippered storage case is nice. The English translation of the one page Operations Manual is usable.

    Ease of use, identified circuit that the remote plug in transmitter was on in an outlet. Identifies active live circuits. Stores easily, inexpensive practical homeowners electrical aid.

    The accuracy was a little questionable. It was lighting up on more than 1 breaker so it was difficult to tell which breaker it was. My dad brought his Klein and it worked flawlessly. This tool is fine if you are good with approximate. Ill be returning unfortunately.

    GFI shows open ground always, very poor breaker identifier. Waste of my money. I bought the Kline tester, works perfectly. Stay away from this unit.

    When used it show a few breakers so I found my self cycling breakers that were near it till I found the right one. However once you open the right breaker the device wont sound so it does work.

How should I adjust the sensitivity?

Adjust the sensitivity of the receiver to the minimum and keep slowly turning it up during the measurement until it can be accurately located to the break.

Does the power have to be on for the tester to work?

Yes, it must be powered on to test the circuit break, the receiver also needs to use a 9V battery to receive the signal, but we come with the package with a 9V battery.

The receiver just beeps at all the breakers. What should i do?

Turn down the sensitivity before using it, otherwise it will beep at any break until it is adjusted to a critical point, this critical point needs to be found by you, try it a few more times and you will find break.

Will it work if there is no electricity to the socket?

No, it will not work without electricity. The socket must be connected to 90-120V mains to power the transmitter inserted into the socket.
