Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It does the job so far as i'm a tech for bobcat. The first one sort of got slammed in a hood. Use in auto shoppe.

Autel is a respected brand. And very affordable and comes with it’s one case. The cabling is nice as well.

The voltage tester is designed with a compact screen. It’s portable and can hook right up to the car battery to use. It is easy to use if you have a basic understanding of automotive electricity.

Only suggestion is i wish it felt more durable, thicker plastic but it's thick enough just not the power probe feel. This does what a power probe does and more and is more affordable.



Cons

Sometimes the digits itself blanks off, then i need to disconnect the power source and reconnect to correct that. Problem with this unit, is that you cannot test while switching live. It's very frustrating.

Quality


Many uses with the right probes and leads if you use a little ingenuity.


Super nice quality and easy to use.


I basically wanted a quality signal probe that could help diagnose control circuits.


Also the autel can use a pp3 tips or extensions, although the extensions do not quite fit perfectly.

Price


For the price you can't beat it.


A new pp3 is almost twice the price, so i shopped around.

Competitiveness


This is a autel copy of a power probe, it works well at a much better price.


Found this autel (i use an autel scanner daily) so i ordered this.


Thanks to autel, pricing on these types of 'specialty' items has become attainable for average joes like me.


The attached cord is 20ft long with another 20ft extension included.

    Bought a second power probe and it broke


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Autel is a lot cheaper and less bulky


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The first one sort of got slammed in a hood


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It even still worked after that just shattered the screen and was hard to read so figured i’d grab a new one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But anyone looking to get a power probe


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Then this tool is highly recommended


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But when you have it on the part then hit the switch there will be a little internal arcing and that eventually wears it out


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So if you activate it first the arc happens on the end of the power probe and not the switch
