Does What It Says It Does!
May 15, 2023
It is a cheap way to get some indication of current. It does not "glow" as the packaging says, but it flashes quickly. It is hard to see when it is still light outside. Persistence filled in and I get a flash at each point that is tested. Good enough for now. My first electric fence and a life time of deer eating my roses. If this is an effective fix I will be getting a second solar powered charger and a better tester. If you do not need a $75 tester with all the bells and whistles, this is a great little unit for ten bucks. I would do it again and am pleased with the choice I made for the short term.
Good, but could be better

This device is easy to use. However, the pulsing indicator light is difficult to see in daylight. I have to use it in the early morning or evening, or create my own shady spot with a piece of cardboard or wood, or by positioning my body between the sun and the device. It would be 5 stars if the light bulb were brighter.

Is easy to use and does what it advertises cheaply and quickly: Let's the user know if their is an electric current passing through electric fence wiring. It does not, however, give the voltage, but it's not designed to do that. Used mine on 17 gauge aluminum wire and it worked great.

One dog - the puppy - can tell the wire's "hot" the big dog not so much. Not willing to risk getting knocked on my butt - again - I opted for buying this as an add-on.Easy to use, just hang the handle on the wire and stick the nail end in the ground. Little neon lamp *(remember those? Early 20th century technology, or late 19th, not sure) glows red and in bright daylight the contrast with the black handle makes it very easy to see.A good investment. One I should have made years ago.

Q&A
Is supposed to be a solid light or flash?

This will vary depending on the type of energizer you are using. If your energizer pulsates the voltage, then the tester will also pulse.

What is the minimum voltage to turn on light? Model A1LVT-Z VOLTAGE TESTER
Question by: John Stanfield on Apr 12, 2026, 10:28 AM
Hi, thank you for reaching out. The A1LVT-Z voltage tester does not have a specific minimum voltage to turn on the light. It is designed as a simple indicator, so the light will turn on whenever it detects any electrical pulse in the fence.
Because of this, it does not measure or display the exact voltage—only whether there is current present or not. If the light turns on, it means the fence is energized. If it does not, the voltage is either too low or there is no power.
