Amplifier Probe 

 

Features 

  Designed to identify and trace wires without necessary damaging the 

insulation. 

  Works with any Tone Generator. 

  Volume control for sensitivity adjusting to suit working environment. 

  Recessed ON/OFF button switch to prevent battery drain while standby. 

  Power supply by 9V battery with an average operating life of 100 hours. 

  Audio earphone jack for operating in noisy environment such as server 

room,etc. 

  LED for illustration of signal strength of tone receiving.
