Sperry Instruments CT6101: Test Continuity on Heavy-Duty Circuits

Danny: This is great value and easy to use. Would be better if it beeped but still great and gets used a lot.

GARY LEHL: THIS IS A SUPER EASY AND UNDERSTANDABLE SIMPLE TOOL BUT IF YOU TOUCH A HOT WIRE, YOUR PRETTY MUCH DONE FOR THE DAY UNLESS YOU HAVE EXTRA BULBES ON HAND. I HAVE ORDERED UP A BOX OF THESE JUST IN CASE THAT IS WHAT HAPPEND TO ME. SO I PURCHASED A COUPLE OF BOX'S OF THESE TO HAVE IN MY TOOL BOX. THE ONE AND ONLY COMPLAINT I HAVE IS THAT THE WIRE THAT IT IS USED IS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST FEATURE OF THIS OTHERWISE SUPER SIMPLE TESTER BUT WHAT A HORRIBLE MESS TO TRY AND KEEP IN MY DRAWER. COMMON FOLKS,, YOU CAN DO BETTER THEN THIS.

Carlos Orozco: Increíble, en mi trabajo manejamos corrientes de 110v y 220v por lo que tenemos que tener como identificar cada una y este aparato es funcional, resistente, duradero ya que con el anterior llevo 6 años usandolo y sigue en perfecto estado y compacto. Lo recomiendo sin ninguna duda.

Justin Hoover: This is a must have for working on electronics. I purchased it to identify and determine continuity for the abs system on my vehicle. Within minutes I had identified two broken circuits (and was able to fix the problem). I'm sure many of you reading this will have a multimeter that gives an audible continuity check, but I found it difficult to use in certain situations. This tool does one thing, but does it really well. There's no audible indication of a complete d circuit, but I find the light to work great and is not annoying like the beep on the multimeter, especially if you're using it for multiple circuits. The design is perfect. An all-in-line design makes testing hard to reach wires quick and easy to test. The price can't be beat and it arrived within two days of order. I'm upset with myself that I hadn't purchased one sooner. I can think of many situations where it would have made the job much easier. If you're looking at it, you probably need it. Buy it, you won't regret it. Very sturdy design, superb quality build and materials. The only thing I would modify would be the light itself, it's a soft white. I prefer the cooler (bluer) color temperature of...

Amazon Customer: Great little device that actually works. Many require power to be on the circuit; some are quite simplistic; other just fall apart. This one is solid; works well; needs no power on the circuit to test continuity; is reasonably priced; and works like a charm. If I had a complaint, it might be that the alligator clip and the other end from the probe tends to be a little tight or awkward to use because it has a rubberized shroud. However, all in all, a great little tester. Thanx.

C. Mancieri: The Gardner-Bender CT6101 continuity test is a well constructed heavy-duty tester. Every other tester I've owned were flimsily constructed and poorly designed -- the batteries were loaded by removing the top portion of the tester which simply pushed on to the bottom portion, and because they were non-threaded or not twist-locking and simply pushed on, it would constantly come apart during use ... this also caused those testers not to light up and be very unreliable. I constantly would need to keep checking the tester by touching the alligator clip to the probe to confirm if the tester was operating properly, or if it was the item or circuit being tested that was defective when the tester did not light -- what a hassle and a nuisance that was!

The GB CT6101 is one molded piece so it cannot separate during use -- and the batteries are loaded by twisting a locking cap which does not open during use, and it performs flawlessly and accurately every time!

If I had one minus comment to make I would say that that alligator clip is a bit difficult to squeeze open. But, for the money I would recommend this tester to anyone looking for a good continuity...
