Hi Jeff, I agree, I love mine, I waited for them to bring this one out a few months ago, only thing I hate about it is the price , but it really impresses people who understand what it does and how it shows the results, If there is anything better I still have to find it (although Greg might argue with me)

This is the second one that I have I bought the first one about 5 years ago an old ST1 that still woks well see here: http://www.nachi.org/forum/attachmen...1&d=1138902528

Regards

Gerry

There is even a test for a "shared neutral" at an AFCI. Impressive. . .

Thanks, I was wondering if you found a deal on them somewhere.

Deals from SureTest are too rare. They generally make a good product, and you have to pay for it.

Sounds like some phone calls, people looking for deals....ha

I still use my old, crusty, 155, but it is still pretty handy.
