HOTLINE P208 AUDIBLE ELECTRIC FENCE TESTER

Great product! Quality is fab easy to use, keeps in your pocket or on your keys it’s small and compact, great value for money and saves me electrocuting my self all the time trusted safety product

This is my second tester of this type. It has replaced one which I purchased in 2021. It is a great design and very effective and reliable.

Neat little gadget I would have liked a brief note with it stating battery already fitted. It has a screw to open back but no guide on how/if to change battery

Works well

Excellent works a treat much better than using your fingers !!

I bought this in September ‘22, but stupidly didn’t use it straightaway. A friend had one that worked perfectly, making a nice loud beeping noise. Unfortunately this one makes a very tiny noise that you can only just about hear if you put your ear right by it. I didn’t think it was working at all at first. theres no way to put a new battery in or anything, so I think this is just money down the drain. Won’t buy again

Easy to use good quality and value for money.

I bought this to replace a much more expensive device which gave a voltage reading. This though stopped working properly after a few years. I obviously don't know how long the Hotline P208 will work, but I gave it 5 stars because of the service I received from the supplier GC Battery Works. The tester I ordered from them did not arrive. Yesterday they said they would send a replacement and it arrived today. Despite the lack of a voltage reading, it looks like I can still check the effectiveness of the electric fence over time. The device starts beeping about 2 metres from the fence where the energizer is attached, but the distance is a bit less at the far end of the fence where the voltage is lower. If these distances reduce over time (and if they can't be improved with a new battery in the tester) there is probably something wrong with the fence/energizer. A further reason to replace the original device was that I used it to test for an in situ spark when, for example, a chain saw didn't start. This is still possible with the Hotline P208, but as it has no visual indicator this would be a two person job.
