[QUOTE="Mike Sokol, post: 93267, member: 1989"] Re: Bad mic shock Klein sent me a pair of them last month to experiment with, and while the dual range idea seems good on paper, I feel it's really too complicated for the average "joe" to operate. That's because there's a single button you have to push in various sequences to set the range to high or low volts, and a pair of multi-colored lights that indicate presence of low (5 volts) or high (40 volts) when on a large charged surface like a guitar amp. There's no clear labeling on the tester itself, so I have to keep referring to the printed directions on how to get it into high or low range, then I can't remember how to get it into high range the next week. It's a good idea but needs a simpler "operating system" and foolproof indicator as to what voltage it's indicating. Guess I should do a video review of that as well.
