Triplett AC Line Splitter and GFCI Outlet/Receptacle Tester with 5 Visual Indicators (ET200)

This Splitter and GFCI Outlet / Receptacle Tester works great. My only complaint is its length, its just a little too long.

Works. Just about it really.

Used once to check amperage of a sump pump during operation with my Clamp multimeter. Measurement was plausible, most likely correct. Used GFCI tester per instructions provided. Worked well. A convenient way to perform this type of testing if length of the device lets it fit where you need it to be.

Its not a very stylish design, unlike some others, but on the other hand, it works perfectly, first time, every time, unlike many of the competitors. The lights are clear and bright, the button wont get pushed on accident, but is easy to trip when you want, and the GFCI LED is undeniable proof when the outlet isnt working right. Pushing the button instantly trips working GFCI outlets before the LED can light-up, and makes it incredibly quick and easy to go through an entire house and check out every single outlet in record time, easily making it worth the purchase price in just the first 10 minutes of use. Even if youre tired of the proliferation of specialty tools you need to carry around, like I am, this is one to get, as a multimeter takes so damn much longer. Dont bother with other models, just because they look sleeker... They got it right with this one.

Very good Quality, Thanks.

Would have liked to have seen how it works-but it didnt work straight out of the package. Piece of junk!! !! Sadly for $8 is not work the time and effort to return it. Avoid.

Works effectively, great for DIY electrical repair. The GFI test switch is the main reason why I bought this, and it works. Very simple product, easy to use.

Ok, these devices are not rocket science. If all you want to do is read AC current, you could easily separate the two wires in an AC extension cord and clamp your clamp current meter around one of the lines. This would give you exactly the same result. Want “times 10”? loop one of the lines 10 times, and then clamp around that loop to read 10 times the current. But the ET100 will also give you indications that your wall outlet is wired correctly or not. It also has the ability to check your outlets GFCI breaker. For the price, this is a handy tool to have in your box if you want to measure AC current or quickly check an outlet. It seems durable and well built, but I just recently received it so I can not comment on long term durability

So easy to use the graphics right on the plug

This appears to be substantially the same as several similar units I have or have used. The new thing (to me) is the GFCI testing button. If its not apparent from the picture, the thing that looks like a guard around the GFCI testing button isnt. Im not really sure why its there at all; the button protrudes a few millimeters and takes very little force to depress. So far, Ive successfully tripped a known working in-wall GFCI... and proved to my satisfaction that a GFCI-protected extension cord I bought for cheap from Wal-Mart is probably unsafe / defective(?). (If the GFCI light comes on, probably even for a moment, while connected to a GFCI-protected circuit, its probably time to get a better GFCI. In the case of the extension cord, the GFCI light stayed a bright, solid, ominous red for as long as I cared to hold the button down.) I dont have any out-of-code outlets or appliances Im aware of, so theres a slight question mark about the other functions; it does light the completely correct pattern for all of my known-good outlets, extension cords, etc.
