Test Light/Voltmeter

Now, I am not a 'tool tart' by any means but at less than half price (putting it a couple of quid over the Laser tools equivalent) I couldn't resist buying this little beauty a couple of weeks ago.

While it will never replace a Multi-meter for resistance checks it is a brilliant go to for fault finding continuity problems as it allows one hand free to wiggle wires/connectors etc. while searching out intermittent faults.

It's also ideal for checking switch operation or instantly showing there is power getting to fuel pumps etc. along with being great for connecting accessories into the existing circuit by searching out a positive (glows red) feed and a ground (glows green) connection without having to refer to a circuit.

Negative side of my Optimate connector:

I didn’t spot those on the middle aisle at Lidl on Thursday: they must have been late in!
