Klein Tools VDV500-920 Wire Tracer Tone Generator and Probe Kit Continuity Tester for Ethernet, Internet, Telephone, Speaker, Coax, Video, and Data Cables, RJ45, RJ11, RJ12

This product worked as advertised! I had to help someone find why they had no power at their outlet. This tool when hooked up to the outlet in question helped me find a hidden outlet (junk hiding it) where the root cause was found. 2.5 hrs later and everything worked as should. This tool is awesome!! Just remember that the power must be off or it will arc / pop. Follow the instructions to the letter and you will be fine

This tone generator is one of the best investment I have made. The tool is extremely good and easy to use the sound is crisp and clear when trying to tone out you rj45 cables.

First off - the description makes note of using this on low voltage. They mention ethernet, thermostat, network, HVAC, etc, etc. I purchased this with the intent on using this on 14 gauge romex and it worked PERFECTLY. (Circuit was off obviously). I needed to chase down some weird line of romex and see where it went so I could remove it form the panel. The toner picked up the wire with ease and I was able to isolate and remove the wire. Pros - I've used the more expensive brand (it's blue in color, every electrician has one) before and it worked well. I can't say this one was any different. And about 1/2 the price. It comes with a case and can even isolate specific pairs in a bundle if you short the correct pairs. Cons - I haven't found any yet. But I will update this if any problems arise. I haven't tried this outside with any buried wires yet. Summary - Great product. Great for tracing low voltage or high voltage capable wires. Good value

Excellent device for what it is. Was hoping it would locate cabling behind blind walls, which it unfortunately cannot do very well. It was able to detect ethernet drops only if directly behind a blank wall plate, but not behind drywall. Toner portion works fantastic otherwise to trace out cabling as needed. I ended up having to go with the Klein ET450 Wire Tracer Kit, which can find cabling drops blind, regardless of drops being exposed or not, behind drywall. (Also located outdoor buried cable!)

Paid for itself the first time I used it!

Works great. I bought a house that had both cat5 and cat3 wirings done all over the home. It helped me trace down where everything went in the home and redo and crimp ends that weren't done correctly. Now I have a correctly hard wired and networked home.

I had all the outlets from one breaker go out...but breaker was fine. Was at the end of my patience and ordered this toner and probe. I watched a view youtube videos on how to calibrate it and within minutes I found my problem. The tool worked perfectly. However, do NOT use the batteries it came with. Upon delivery I put the batteries in, played with it for awhile, to be sure I knew how to use. The next day I get out, ready to trace. The probe turns out, but won't pick up the signal from the toner. I was stumped, it worked 12 hours earlier. I decide to package it up and return, which meant removing the brand news batteries it came with. Opened the battery case and found one battery had leaked all over the inside. I took it out, cleaned it up and put in fresh batteries and worked great. Tool great, batteries very bad!!!

Great tool, I am not an electrical expert, but I have done my fair share of electrical work. I got stumped trying to find the source of a light switch and this helped me track it back to an outlet that should not have been on a light circuit. Would not have been able to trace it back any other way. Also found out once it was hooked up that I had a short to ground that I was able to correct. Very easy to use just watch a couple of Youtube videos. Well worth the price versus calling an electrician in to troubleshoot and repair.

quality tool. works well

Signal strangt no good

Llego en perfecto estado, y funciona a la perfección, lo recomiendo 👌🏻

Ok

Love this set for cable test, tone from end to find coms entry point and really just to see if my ends are wired correctly. I use in a professional capacity as a tech. This is essential to my kit. Love the digital tone generator. I have a couple just in case I loose one!
