Product Information
Full details
The Laser Circuit Tester (8599) is designed for automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts working with DC electrical systems. Its primary benefit is providing accurate, real-time voltage readings on a clear digital display, simplifying diagnosis. A key caveat is its limitation to Direct Current (DC) systems only. This tool measures voltage from 3 to 60V with high accuracy, features computer-safe testing current (<10mA), a data hold function, over-voltage protection, and a versatile probe with multiple functions.

FAQs
Can I use this tester on AC voltage?
No, this circuit tester is strictly for Direct Current (DC) systems only and cannot be used on AC circuits.
What is the accuracy of the voltage measurement?
The accuracy is rated at +/- 1% + 0.3V.
Is it safe to use on modern car electronics?
Yes, the tester uses a low testing current (<10mA), making it computer safe for sensitive electronic components.
How long is the cable?
The coiled cable extends to a maximum of 3 meters.
What does the dual-colour display mean?
A red display indicates a positive voltage reading, while a green display indicates a negative voltage reading (relative to ground).
What are the different functions of the probe tip?
The stainless steel probe is designed with wire hooking and piercing capabilities for versatile connection to electrical circuits.
What is the voltage range of the tester?
The tester measures DC voltages from 3 Volts up to 60 Volts.
Troubleshooting
No voltage reading displayed
Ensure the alligator clip is connected to a solid ground. Verify the probe is making good contact with the live DC circuit. Confirm the circuit is powered and within the 3-60V range.
Display shows erratic or fluctuating readings
Check for loose connections at the alligator clip or probe. Ensure the circuit being tested has a stable power source. A poor ground connection can also cause erratic readings.
Over voltage warning is constantly active
This indicates the circuit voltage is exceeding the tester's safe operating limit (above 60V). Disconnect immediately and investigate the power source. The tester is functioning correctly by warning you.
Polarity indication is incorrect (e.g., showing red for negative)
Double-check your connections. The red light indicates positive voltage relative to ground, and green indicates negative voltage (or absence of positive voltage) relative to ground. Ensure the ground connection is good.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Accurate voltage readings with digital display.
- Computer safe for modern vehicle electronics.
- Clear polarity indication saves time and prevents errors.
- Durable construction with versatile probe options.
- Extended cable length for better reach.
Cons
- Limited to Direct Current (DC) systems only; cannot be used on AC circuits.
- Accuracy is +/- 1% + 0.3V, which may not be sufficient for extremely sensitive measurements.
- Coiled cable can be prone to tangling if not managed properly.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No complex setup is required. Ensure the alligator clip is securely attached to a known good ground point (e.g., the vehicle chassis). Connect the stainless steel probe to the circuit or wire you wish to test. The device is powered by the circuit being tested.
Compatibility: This tester is designed exclusively for Direct Current (DC) systems operating between 3 and 60 Volts. It is *not* suitable for testing Alternating Current (AC) circuits.
Care: Keep the probe tip clean and free from debris. Avoid exposing the tester to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures. After use, store the tester in a dry, protected environment. Clean the exterior with a slightly damp cloth if necessary; do not use harsh solvents.
