Neon or LED tester? The old neon testers could do this - but the led

Don't think the neon 3 lamp tester has been sold in Canada or the USA
in the last 10 or more years.


But who buys a new hammer every decade?

If he's been in business for ten years, and his tester still works...

My newest one is over 15 years old, and IT is an LED unit. When I said
at least 10 years, I thought I was being conservative.
