ZTS
Multi-Battery Tester
Tests
full range of batteries (including Lithium, NiCad and NiMH) under
load conditions.
It's been a long time since we've offered a stand-alone battery
tester. Most simply aren't accurate enough to give you a true reading
that's useful. But now the ZTS gives you that assurance. Every battery
you test is put under a two second load test and the result is shown
on a colored LED scale. It will tell you by percentage how much
good life there is left in your battery.
There are no switches or settings to worry about and it's powered
by 4 AA batteries.
Tests the following batteries:
9V alkaline, carbon zinc
6V lithium (CR223, CR-P2)
3V lithium (CR123, CR2, CRV3)
1.5V alkaline (AAA, AA, C, D, N)
3V lithium coin (CR2016, CR2025, CR2032, 58L, 1/3N)
1.5V "76" series button (S76, A76, A625, A640)
6V "28" series (28A, S28, 28L)
1.2v NiMH, NiCd rechargeable (AAA, AA, C, D)
New
version adds two more battery configurations to the testing range.
Picture to come.

a smaller array of batteries.Tests: 1.2V NiMH, NiCd rechargeable (AAA,
AA, C, D), 1.5V alkaline (AAA, AA, C, D, N), 3V photo lithium (CR123,
CR2, CRV3), 9V alkaline, zinc-carbon.

Gam
Chek Jr. (left)
Quick
and easy way to check dimmer output for power, correct polarity and
ground. Comes with an attached shoestring lanyard. 3 neon lamps tell
you instantly if you have a live power outlet and will also alert
you if there is a problem with polarity and if there is a correct
ground path. Label on the back on the unit indicates circuit continuity.
Gam
Lamp Chek (right)
Verify
the continuity of a lamp. When there's a problem, determines when
the problem is in the lamp itself. Or even better, check your lamps
before you hang them.

Lamp
Quick-Test
Continuity
Tester
This
continuity tester includes a ringer and green LED light. Unit rings
and lights simultaneously when a good fixture is plugged into its
PBG receptacle. It is small and easy to use. Powered by one replaceable
9v battery, it's only on when actually testing a lamp.
The Lamp
Quick-Test is easily carried in a CO45A
pouch.

Wavetek
DM-73B Digital Multimeter.
Formerly known
as the Beckman DM-73
Measures AC
and DC.
Small,
lightweight, probe-type, digital multimeter.
Redesigned for 2002, but still that great little meter we all love.
New Pictures to come.
So
light you can carry this meter all day. Be ready to troubleshoot
those annoying electrical problems. Digital readout insures
accuracy.
Measures
both AC/DC voltage, resistance and continuity.
An
internal ringer signals if your continuity is "good."
Every
stage electrician should have this meter.
Holster
your DM-73B in the CO40A pouch (see pouches category).

Greenlee
Tick Tracer
Checks for electrical
current without breaking the connection.
A
"volt tick" is a handy tool that belongs in every electrician's
toolpouch or shirtpocket. Got a bad lamp? Check to see if it's getting
current quickly and easily by just TOUCHING THE CABLE with the tip
of the tester. It tests for voltage right through the insulation!
The
Greenlee is powered by two button batteries. To replace the batteries,
just pull off the black cap. Turn the Greenlee on by sliding the
plastic protector up and then pressing on the metal shirt clip.
If there's current passing though the cable you'll get an audible
ring AND a flashing red light.

Santronics
AC Sensor
Checks for electrical
current without breaking the connection.
A
"volt tick" is a handy tool that belongs in every electrician's
toolpouch or shirtpocket. Got a bad lamp? Check to see if it's getting
current quickly and easily by just TOUCHING THE CABLE with the tip
of the tester. It tests for voltage right through the insulation!
The
Santronics AC Sensor is powered by two AAA batteries. To replace
the batteries, just unscrew the white cap. The The Santronics is
always ready for use. It never has to be turned on or off.
If there's current passing though the cable the entire white tip
will glow a steady red.
FAQ:
John, I'm confused. I can't decide which "volt tick" to buy.
Can you offer any help?
Sure,
it's really a matter of balancing personal taste with the situations
you think you'll be using it in most. The Greenlee with its
audible ringer is a good choice especially while focusing.
There are always situations when you need to check a cable, but
can't see the tester because you're blocked by the light. The ringer
solves that situation. On the other hand, if you're working
shows that are inherently quiet (soaps, theatre) the silent Santronics
allows you to check cables without worrying about the noise of a
ringer. I carry both the Greenlee and Santronics in my tool
bag because I never know what situation I might be in.
