What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Building your own cables?

Pros: Does what's it supposed to.
Easy to use.
 
Cons: As others says. It's pretty cheap and flimsy.
The battery compartment is a tad small for most 9v batteries and need to be forced in. Might crack if the plastic gets brittle with time.
 
Other Thoughts: Nothing much to say - you probably already know what it's for :)
 
Bottomline: Building your own cables or often having doubts about a cable working correctly? If yes, then you need a cable tester. May spare you for a lot of gray hairs :)
But please consider if this is appropriate for you or if you want spend a few dollars more for better quality.

Cheap and simple cable teste

Overall Rating:

Pros: Very useful tool. Works good. Just check the contact between the wires on the network cable. Can check phone cables too, that is good.
 
Cons: Very fragile. Made of a thin plastic. The battery must be "forced" in because there is no much space to fit it.
 
Other Thoughts: Maybe it was designed to low power consuption and don´t need to change the battery frequently. But mine is rechargeable, and I sure need to use it in another devices.
 
Bottomline: Good device. Does what it was designed to. Bad build quality, but cheap. If you use with careful, and are just an amateur like me, I think it worths the buy. For professional heavy duty use, I would not choose this.

better buy a more expensive one

Overall Rating:

Pros: - very cheap
- small size
- nice looking
- very light of weight
 
Cons: - the Buildt Quality is the worst i've ever seen (brocken in the first 20 Minutes of ownership)
 
Other Thoughts: I don't know if every one is buildt so worse like mine, but i decided to choose one more expensive and hope that this would work better. I think this would be a nice tool to check the network cables easily if it works.
Shipping: the shipping self took about 8 Workdays (really fast for some 1000's Kilometers) and it was packed really good.
 
Bottomline: i would buy it again (for this price is not much thrown away if it breaks ;-) )
