I’ve been a mechanic for 20 years and I can say with certainty the power probe is ok quality but not as accurate vs the innova. Also the “ pistol “ mode is the best thing about it. I do wish it had a mute though!
LOVE THE ELECTRONIC TOOL REVIEWS, PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING NEW VIEWER HERE HAPPY I FOUND THIS CHANNEL PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!
“The built-in automatic circuit breaker and 10MegOhm impedance helps keep the tool and parts safe while testing.” From your testing of it, do you believe this to be true ? I have a hard time trusting a breaker that doesn’t have to be manually reset.
I don't think it's true. I tried it a couple of times, and the tool failed. Now I use it when I'm afraid that I'm gonna damage my expensive power probe.
Shop told me today that Autozone wouldn't accept the unit as a return because it was already used. I have to keep it in my van as a spare to my main power probe :(.
No offence buddy but to me that looks cheap and nasty. A good while back when I was looking to upgrade my probe, I looked at quite a few different options but eventually settled on the Autel PS100. Feels quite good in the hand when in use and has been a great addition to my test gear, one of the things I like with the Autel is that it came with 2 cables so has plenty of length for commercial vehicles as well.
I agree with you. all I needed is a spare cheap on in my van. I returned it already. My main probe is the Power probe 4 which I think is the best. soon I will upload a video reviewing and field testing the SEGMAPROBE in which I found an interesting issue that non of the reviews in youtube have found before.
Let's buy a product, use it and try to return it.
Previlag of using Amazon.

If you still check the comments, which power probe do you recommend for the DIY from the cheapo Ebay or Amazon brands? Thanks.
I have heard that the autel power probe is not bad for the price.

It says it on the box. Automatic circuit breaker.
It's an automatic resetting circuit breaker. The back of the box states that. I would rather have a manual reset but....
There are many reasons why I don't like this probe.
If you short it out there's no circuit breaker on the innova. It says " has a built in automatic breaker " it doesn't work
Yes I think ypu are right.
The whole video and I still have no idea how to use it
Nice video just wondering if you know what the amperage it puts out at the 3v and 5v setting ? Thanks
Good honest review
Thanks
this best or autel PS 100
I think autel ps100
