I have one of these (probably not as good) and I get a lot of false alarms. They seem too sensitive. I can touch the device with my fingers and sometimes it will sound. Again if it is shaked (even gently) the alarm will go off. And it tends to sound on a circuit with no power if a powered circuit is anywhere near which makes accurate identification difficult.

I try to use mine as a secondary check to make sure the power is off on a circuit before I work on it.

Yeah...most Tickers will do that as they do have sensitive parts in them...BUT the real truth is in how they act with Voltage....a ticker that just glows could mean static voltage or induction....but what sets these apart is the beep function will only go off if it truly detects enough voltage to be a potential problem.

This one does not glow with rubbing on your shirt...shake it and it may pop a light once...but means nothing...the proof is in the detection but in the end a safe practice is and always will be caution and testing before use.

BTW...I feel like Zig Zigler lately....

"When an objection occurs, always use the fundamentals of FEEL, FELT, FOUND. It gives you an extra cushion of time and allows the prospect to identify himself with others."

Example: "I see how you FEEL (Ian)! Others have FELT the same way too until I FOUND this one is quite good"

Hey Paul,

How does this compare with the TIF 100 Tick Tracer, which also identifies open grounds?

Hey Paul!

I tried faxing your order form (1-540-434-1360) a couple of days ago and got a voice mail...

And tried again a few days later and the phone rang, rang and rang...

I'm now hesitant to give you my credit card information...

It's all in the details, Paul. You might want to consider handling the idea end of future projects, and let someone else (the wife, maybe?) handle the details. Just a thought. Some of the greatest ideas have been ruined by inattention to details.
