    Customers are mixed about the wires. Some mention it's very helpful in finding the wiring issue, locate wires, and verify cable termination. It's easy to use and traces all circuit wires quickly. However, some say that a mis-wire is only detectable by watching the remote end as the master end will. They also mention that few wires weren't connected properly and that it'll take hours to determine the faulty wire.

    "...It's very easy to use and traces all circuit wires quickly." Read more

    "...This does not validate the cable, but only shows that it is wired correctly.Quick notes on the LED Display:1...." Read more

    "...I reversed the connections with the same result. So a mis-wire is ONLY detectable by watching the REMOTE end as the master end will always show..." Read more

Some mention that it's quick and easy to use and test connectivity, while others say that it saves hours investigating connection issues. Some say that the tool works wonderfully and confirms connections are completed successfully. However, others say there must be a bad connection inside the unit and that ports 4-7 aren't good connections.

    "...Voila! A good connection, all 8 lights lit solid, battery good, cable good to go! Works just like they said it would...." Read more

    "...Why would the tester report a good cable but the cable would not connect? I tried another known good cable and it connected as expected...." Read more

    Buyer Beware
    Quick SummaryIt seems that there is a reasonable chance of getting a unit that doesn't work and if you do, the seller isn't good about returns and you'll have to engage with Amazon directly.My ExperienceTester showed problems with lights #4 (main box LED lights up, remote box LED doesn't light) & #5 (neither box lights up). This was a working cable that I had made, so I tried another cable - same result. I tested a total of 6 of my hand-made cables, all known to work, with the same result on lights #4 & #5. Then I switched to testing manufactured cables, also all known to work, and got the same exact results with lights #4 & #5. I don't know if it's the internal circuitry that is problematic or the LED lights on the tester that are defective.In either case, it said Free Returns, so I opted to get an advance replacement with a return of the broken tester. Sounded good, but when I went to print the return label (see picture), it said that I had to pay the return shipping costs. That's ridiculous. So, I called Amazon, they promptly refunded the purchase price and automatically canceled the advance replacement.As Others Have MentionedThe instructions are useless, entertaining to try and figure out what they're trying to say in a few places perhaps, but useless as instructions. However, it's simple enough to use, plug one end of cable into main box and the other into the remote box and then turn the switch to "On" for a fast run through the lights or "S" for a slow run through the lights. You want to see simultaneous green lights on both main and remote boxes for each connector (lights 1 --> lights 8), which means that both the main and remote boxes need to be side by side (or at least close together) so you can see whether or not you get simultaneous green lights.
