Greater than one weekVery easy to use and even finds multiple failures in one section. The only problem is after a few years outside, hanging in loops that sway in the wind, I get a lot of failures! The leads corrode and break with the wind. When I purchase a new string, I may squirt weatherproof electrical sealant into the sockets. I also bought a pack of 500 3mm LEDs. I can swap out the bad bulb and put a new one into the plug part. Just remember, the long lead goes towards the end with the little latch tab. It wont work the other way.

> 3 dayI wasnt sure if it would work with icicle light sets but it does. It works, is easy to use and is worth the money spent. This is one time saving multi tool that I never knew I needed.

> 3 dayHow did I not know this existed??? It takes a couple tries to figure out how it works but once you do then the light repair is immediate. Type LED Keeper in your browser to look at a picture & description.

> 3 dayUSED TO REPAIR 6 50 STRINGS OF LIGHTS. tHE FIRST ONE I RECEIVED WAS DEFECTIVE AND THUS FRUSTRATING, HOWEVER AFTER I DETERMINED THAT THI PIERSING PIN WAS NOT SUPPLING THE VOLTAGE NEEDED TO LIGHT LIGHTS. I RETURNED THE DEFECTIVE ONE AND WAS SENT A REPLACEMENT WHICH WORKS GREAT. ONLY NEGATIVE IS ITS A BIT CLUMSY FOR AN OLD 78 YR OLD TO USE. AFTER A BIT I GOT THE HANG OF IT. LOVE IT!

> 3 dayI hate hate hate Xmas lights. I hate that when one bulb goes out, you have to spend ages finding the bad one. This amazing simple tool cut that process down to 20 minutes. I had to check 5 strings of 100 lights. I found bad 8 bulbs and 1 torn wire. This set had the pod replacements for the torn wire. Such a life saver. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

> 3 dayLove this product! Saved me from throwing away my LED Christmas lights strand. I was able to locate the faulty led light bulbs and replace them. Voilà, lights are working again. Highly recommend this if you want to save money from having to buying more light sets!

> 3 dayI had 3 GE 150 light strings with varying number of dead sections. One entire string was completely dead. Replaced 4-6 lamps per string. They all now work like new! It would be impossible to have fixed these 3 strings without this tool. It has not only the wire string tester, but LED and fuse testers. I used them all. New lights $60-80, this tool $25. A bargain.

> 3 dayI had two outdoor reindeer that had partial LED light strands out. I monkeyed around with a voltage tester, voltameter and randomly swapping out lights to try and find the culprit for hours - to no avail. I bought this in hopes of salvaging the reindeer or not having to rerun new light strands. After 15 mins, I found the 3 dead bulbs and the reindeer are as good as new. Save yourself the trouble and just buy this tool. Specifically for pre-lit trees/decorations, the probes on a voltameter are almost impossible to insert and get lined up on both sides of the terminal with such little room, the voltage tester is too sensitive to get an accurate reading with the way they wrap the strands and you continually get false readings, and swaps are only good if you only have 1 bad light. If youre curious how it works, this tool injects very small probes in through the insulator and completes the circuit at a specific spot in the line, by-passing half of the strand. With process of elimination you will find your bad bulb/bulbs in no time.

> 3 dayA single strand of lights on our Balsam Hill prelit LED tree wouldn’t light when we setup our tree. The tree was purchased in Jan 2021. Using this keeper, we identified the bulb that needed replaced and had the full tree lit in 10 minutes. The clips were so useful!
