> 3 dayNeeded to identify breakers that controlled outlets. Adjusting the sensitivity made the accuracy perfect. Very easy to use.

> 3 dayThis works well on standard breakers. It works okay on double circuit breakers, as it can be tough to determine which portion of the double breaker is actually the right one since the sensor head is large enough to cover both. The key in general is to adjust the sensitivity high enough to see the flow of electricity, but as low as possible, so that you can isolate the one circuit breaker that is actually active. The fact that the transmitter unit also functions as a circuit tester, and a GFCI tester, is a nice added feature. One 9v battery is required and is included. It is inside the receiver and must have the plastic wrapper removed and then be connected. The included zippered storage case is nice. The English translation of the one page Operations Manual is usable.

> 3 dayThe purpose for getting this device was so that I won’t have to flip all my circuit breaker switches off to find the right one. This did not work for me. I read the instructions, watched YouTube, read Amazon reviews for tips, adjusted sensitivity, the position and the distance of the toner - all of which did not help. It identified multiple, and the ones identified were not the right circuits! At one point, the toner made noise in two completely separate electrical panels while probing! (Mind blown!) I plugged in the transmitter to different receptacles, and in different rooms. Lastly, I took it to a friends house for him to try. He knows a lot about electricity and he did not spend as much time as I did with it before he determined that the device doesn’t work. We have conclude that this thing doesn’t work on U.S. homes built on or after year 2004. I was very hopeful and excited when I ordered the device - ended up disappointed.

> 3 dayIts only natural for the signal injected at the outlet to bleed over to other circuits. The receiver has to be able to filter the lesser signals and only beep on the strongest. This one does not. It signals on too many breakers to isolate the one I want. So, I took it out to my shed with 6 outlets and 3 breakers in the whole box. It signaled strongly on all 3 breakers. I moved it around and it still signaled on all 3. I spent quite a bit of time adjusting sensitivity to no avail. Im returning it and will hit the Home Depot a little later for a Klein. Oh, and the circuit tester shows open neutral on all breakers.

> 3 dayWhen used it show a few breakers so I found my self cycling breakers that were near it till I found the right one. However once you open the right breaker the device wont sound so it does work.

> 3 dayTried this in my office. Very difficult to calibrate. I could never narrow it down to just one circuit breaker.
