Ownership verified by DX Building your own cables?
Posted by McAllan on 1/3/2009
Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: more than 1 month

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstar

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.

Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: more than 1 month

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

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.

Ownership verified by DX better buy a more expensive one

Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: star
Usefulness: starstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstar

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 ;-) )
