Great device and useful display info, one potential improvement would be to be able to set gfci thresholds depending on the geographic location, still 5 stars

This one has lower price compare other very similar items, I think they are from the same manufacturer. Works okay as far as I can tell because I don't have a faulty outlet so it cannot detect anything other than "correct".

I'm an electrical engineer (not the same as an electrician who'd be even better for this) and as a homeowner, I often fix or install new electrical equipment. This tester will be useful in testing in outlet installations, particularly the GFI ones, in the future.I had an issue immediately opening the package. It was obvious that batteries needed to be inserted (batteries are included) but it was entirely unclear how to do so. The very brief manual was of no help at all. I took out the only screw I could find on the back bottom of the device and even then, I couldn't pry anything apart. After some time, I managed to figure out you needed to slide the back and front in a vertical fashion to remove the back (and yes, remove the screw first). This non-obvious battery replacement should have been spelled out in the manual.Following the battery issue, I plugged the device into a working outlet and, as expected, it lit up green, showing the proper voltage and connectivity. I moved it to a GFI outlet and tried the test button. For this, you must hold the white button down for a couple of seconds. It did trip my GFI, as it should, but displayed in red as, by my interpretation anyway, the GFI took too long to trip. I tried again and received consistent results. I'll need to try to find a reference for appropriate trip times and see if I need to replace this outlet.The display is easy to read, even with the multiple numbers and symbols displayed. An error is very visibly apparent as the background turns red rather than the "OK" green color. Operation is also very simple. I consider all of these good qualities.The downside though, is the very limited instructions. There is a very short manual included but it's not particularly helpful. As stated earlier, it didn't even say how to insert the batteries. It's not much more helpful on understanding what you should be looking for on the display.Overall, I think this is a good product but would be better with better documentation. I'll need to do some more research, but it's possible it already identified an issue with my GFI even though I was just testing this device to see how it worked.
