Thank you for the clear, concise overview

Great video. The tone and probe is one of those tools that seems like it should be simple but has a lot of possible ways to use it wrong.

Fluke also offers a kit with a Bluetooth probe and a pair of Dr Dre Beats to really hear that noise for those who like unfiltered. It’s $250 more.

Good demo and good product ... Thx ...

Fluke engineer: for $0.05 we can include a high-pass filter to remove line noise
Fluke marketing: ooooh, this calls for a premium model

So basically you need both pieces correct. I found one thought it was for hvac or would tell you if a wire was hot

If you press the power button on the grey probe, the tone generator not on, what sound will you hear from the probe? Should you hear a kind of white noise? The batteries may be low. Found a tossed out Pro 3000 kit complete. The batteries for both are the replaceable type? Thank you 🤓

shouldn't you be able to just touch the outside of the cable to get a tone, rather to touch the exact cable ?

[bradtownsend]

Figures I have the pice of junk blue one !

[babygangster]

Fuck I just ordered the one without filter, the other seems better and me in electrical i work a lot with wires crossing hot lines and the interference noise it's annoying, can't trace nothing after that

The Fluke intellitone is a better unit.
