Kleins Tools Ncvt6 Voltage Tester and Distance Measure

[@anmtmind]

So much more information than the Klein KZbin video and the instructions included with the tool. THANK YOU!

Thank you... I learned something! Now subscribed!

Great video, just bought one

[@chrisfyfe9212]

I really like mine , I like the low voltage function , the LDM function is quite nice . I’ve tested out to 50’ ( Bosch as a control ) . I tested the low voltage against my Fluke , Fluke detects , but doesn’t differentiate ! So far , I’m happy ! That comming from a died in the wool Fluke junky !

Have you had it long?

[@chrisfyfe9212]

Three days , I kinda wish it was a bit slimmer . Other than that , good unit .

[@danstoolroom7700]

Can I ask a vain question did you buy it off the back of my video?

[@chrisfyfe9212]

@@danstoolroom7700 Your Video inspired me to buy it , I too hate large tape measures , and I’ve been carrying both NCV detectors , and Bosch LDM’s for a while ! You put my addled on brain in pursuit of an idea !

@@danstoolroom7700 You also inspired me to build an everyday carry , with respect to VDE tools . It put me in mind of near misses I’d witnessed , in re : potential live voltage hazards .

[@LoXodonte]

thx for info. Idk why I thought non-contact meant that you could get a read of the voltage from a decent distance, but I suppose it's more accurate to say it doesn't need direct contact with the conductor, but as demonstrated is still in direct contact with insulating material. I'd like to know more about scenarios where to use a NCVT vs a voltage tester...off to watch more vids.

[@anmtmind]

A voltage meter is useful if the contacts are accessible i.e. in a socket, outlet or bare wires. A NCV is useful in the middle of cable runs such as Romex in the attic...

[@benscott5872]

It detects magnetic fields, so the higher the volts and amps, the farther you can detect with tester

Great review!

[@chrisfyfe9212]

On my list !

[@danstoolroom7700]

It's a great space saving tool and works well, let me know what you think of it

[@RickyDarts-h2g]

What a great job of explaining. Are you for hire :)

[@Shawn-gw7ns]

Very cool bit of kit👍😎

[@tonywilliams7536]

Very helpful video

[@IVAN2233]

How is it holding up?

[@three-phase562]

Quite a versatile unit really. Does it detect when placed next to a computer? My Whia unit starts to pickup when it is about 18 cm from my MacBook. They are good for using alongside a voltage tester for testing for dead in scenarios where the neutral-earth connection could be lost that would cause a two pronged voltage tester to not detect the voltage. Other than that great for broken wire detection.

[@danstoolroom7700]

Next time I'm using my laptop I'll have a test for you, it's pretty good at not being too sensitive I've found though

[@Jkhaw89832]

How to change temperature centigrade in Fahrenheit in this equipment ?

[@Jkhaw89832]

Can you help me to change ? I want to see Fahrenheit in this equipment bcz I’m in USA ?

[@rogeliotorres1879]

I js got it and it beeps at everything, even if the wire is cold it beeps once it touches the wire, it can be confusing so im going to return it

[@ferndogg4427]

Should only beep when it senses electricity

[@Slime-jd2bw]

Does not work in sun light can not read display or see red laser

[@oyleyhands1332]

I have two Klein NCVT units and I must admit, not bad, also have a Greenlee unit, I am considering the model you are reviewing here but 92 squids ? It is available on Amazon for £69.98 on Amazon if one looks deeper. Bit of info for you, fire alarm voltages (other than mains feeds) are not classed as low voltage, up to 50 VAC and 120 VDC are ELV (extra low voltage) your mains input voltage is LOW voltage , 230 VAC nominal., with tolerances....+6% -10% One thing is for sure, you mention high voltage, not quite sure how it indicates a high voltage , than mains is 'low voltage'...you won't encounter that in your role for sure as it is 1000 Volts or 1KV and that device has sensituvity up tp 1000 volts. What is the accuracy of the laser measuring function ? I can see tha could be handy when ordering access equipment, I have gone to a number of jobs at night and many miles away only to find someone has ordered the wrong access equipment, fortunately I got paid for revisits.

I would have liked this video if he didn’t talk so much about things that he likes so much, like the color of the tool ect… he spent 5 minutes talking about the damn color and 5 minutes talking about the silent mode. Talk about the good stuff dude

[@danstoolroom7700]

I assume you didn't like the video then

[@lonewolf-nr4sm]

Spot on mate lol

[@Fakken28]

I enjoyed the video in its entirety. Loads of great info. You came on to someone's channel for their opinion on the product and this is what the video is. If you want things done YOUR WAY go buy the product and make your own damn video. People complain about EVERYTHING these days.

beep vs non beep. office dwellers can hug a root when it comes to safety.

Wish they'd add a flashlight to it for total package.

Just shows wht a sting it is to buy those over here £28.08 in USA !!!

[@danstoolroom7700]

Wow that certainly is a difference

[@allanroyle7622]

@@danstoolroom7700 paying for ...uk importers, national seller and transport ..plus UK import tax....not the tool. Remember, that USA price already has profit in that much lower price...too many people taking a slice. Buy a cheaper unit and separate laser measuring tool. A repair for that tool will be non existent and if one function fails, forget it, better off with two separate tools.

Before you called me the non-contact voltage tester police! I just like to make it known because there are many people, usually homeowners that trust them with there lives

[@danstoolroom7700]

I didn't call you anything bud

[@danstoolroom7700]

Seriously mate I'd be interested in an answer to this, when have I ever called you the voltage police, I made a general comment about it. Surely you don't think all my videos are about you persoanlly
