I use this tool to test the integrity of XLR, TRS/TS connections, interrconnects, and battery life for a local venue on a weekly basis. The tester is built to last and gives accurate feedback for our needs. It looks to last us for years to come. Great product at a great price. Highly recommend.

Have you ever wondered whether the cable or the device (or setting) was causing a fault? With this tester in your bag, you can quickly verify the cable connectivity. It's remarkably well built - steel case and easy to use.
