The $50 cable tester that made me rethink cheap tools
Last month I was at a job in Billings Montana and my $20 cable tester kept giving me false passes. The customer was getting mad because their network kept dropping and I couldn't find the problem. A senior tech I work with handed me his Fluke tester and I found a bad crimp in about 30 seconds. I bought the cheap one because I figured a tester is a tester, but now I see the difference in reliability. Has anyone else had a cheap tool waste their time on site?
