So Handy!

I bought this to troubleshoot lines out on the road, when you're not sure why a channel isn't working etc, i have since found even more uses: finding corresponding channels on a multi that isn't labeled for example!
The diagnosis of the faults aren't always 100% but if it says the line is all good then without fail so far, it has been right. To cut a long story short, i couldn't really do without it now. We sometimes even use this to silently line check before a show. and for the price... well its a no brainer for me. i shall now be purchasing the NL4 one as well!

Does Exactly What you'd expect!

Great tool! Unfortunately I find myself using more often than I'd like and it's always proven accurate a reliable. build quality is good, it's a shame the battery is a bit of an odd one, but I haven't had to replace it yet!
Only two niggles are the battery being a bit specialist and the fact that the two parts to the unit don't lock together particularly well, so they will come apart if they're placed into a bag or anywhere it isn't secure.
If given the choice though, I would buy this product again!

Invaluable tool

This thing has saved me so many hours of troubleshooting. I can't count the number of times I've walked into a venue and had the local techs tell me all the channels on the multi are good, yet somehow one of my mics sounds off or a DI isn't powering!

Rather then testing everything in the signal chain, I can just turn on 48v, whip off the microphone and stick the Male end on the end of the XLR. Three green lights, and I have a dodgy microphone. Anything else, and the cable is bad. Follow it back down the chain until you isolate the fault, and then bypass the problem cable!
