ABSTRACT:
An ergonomically designed pistol grip voltage probe testing device features visual output indicators, such an LED light, as well as at least one additional or auxiliary indicator such as a buzzer. The LED advantageously changes colors depending on the potential applied to the probe conductor. Other auxiliary output feedback devices are disclosed. The device is particularly suitable for use in an automotive environment, and, in one embodiment, includes a cigarette plug adapter for connecting the device to a cigarette lighter receptacle for supplying output power and a ground reference potential to the test device.
