Ratings & Reviews for Klein Tools Dual Range Non-Contact Voltage Tester with Flashlight, 12 to 1000V AC
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this voltage tester for its reliability, intuitive operation, and bright built-in flashlight that eliminates carrying a separate light. Most report years of dependable use with accurate voltage detection at distance and consistent performance across applications. However, a notable group experienced battery cap failures after six to eight months, with the cap cracking under stress and the device losing power despite fresh batteries. Despite this durability concern, most customers consider it an essential, safety-focused tool that delivers strong value.

Really nice gadget
Would RecommendMy husband loved that there was a built in flashlight.
No drop protection as advertised
Dropped this from like 5ft. Cracked the body. Also, the flashlight does not stay on. It blinks three times and goes off. Terrible.

Didn’t last
Would Not RecommendHandy tool, but mine lasted a little more than a year before it failed. Wasn’t abused, just stopped working all of a sudden. Not impressed

Doesn’t work properly.
Would Not RecommendThe two separate voltage ranges do not work properly, when selected to 70-100v it still reads 24v, I’ve even read 11v off a neutral wire. Had it exchanged for a new one and still does the same thing.

The Best NCVT I Have Found...
I have have had my NCVT-4IR for well over a year now. I find it durable, reliable and easy to use. The IR Temperature sensor goes well with the NCVT tool.

Favorite tester
Would RecommendI’ve had a bunch of different testers in the last few years. This one has lasted the longest. Only complaint is it says waterproof but when It drops into a puddle once water got all inside.

Downgrade from the NCVT3
Would Not RecommendAwful tester. Nothing about this thing works. This is for a DIYer not professionals. First thing that broke was the clip. Now it won't even stay on. Bring back the NCVT-3 and get rid of this garbage.

Waaaaay better than the 3P
Would RecommendYou guys had a perfect tester and ruined it when the 3P. I can't find a replacement anywhere. Please bring this back and stop making garbage like the 3P.

Light is bright
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this has been a good non-contact tester. The light is brighter than I expected and the tone is plenty loud

Need tool
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this as a automation tech use many times and everyday don’t work without it in my pocket
From Klein Tools
Works great but fragile
Would Not RecommendBought this and loved it for a year. Dropped it 1.5 ft on concrete floor and hard plastic battery cap broke - now useless. Searched site, could not find replacement parts. Battery cap under high stress due to spring and battery weight underneath. Poor selection of material used in battery cap. Should be thicker hard plastic or more flexible material.

Great all around
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace one that no longer worked and it works great. Some of these can be questionable but it gets a good reading every time. I like the flashlight built in too. I just wish it were a little brighter. Waterproof and dust proof is a big plus.
