## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful addition to Robomower - Update to my previous review
*by K***K on 29 April 2022*

I found the instruction by accident they are tucked in the back of the case. the other thing worth noting is that it is advisable to put the detector in cable end first as it east to accidentally turn it on as you push it in. but having now used it few times I am more impressed with it, one because of the way I have set up my robomower so that it enables me to test the loop in zones and two because I have had two unusual breaks in the wire that weren't obvious one was due to ants using my conduit as an express way and the other was due to something corroding the wire on both occasions I was able to narrow the fault down to a very small area and on both occasions it was spot on. just to recap each time I fit a connector I add a third wire that acts as a tail which I initially connect back to the both side of the mower station in turn to narrow down the break area I then disconnect all wires from the mower base station and connect the sender device to the tail and move it from it until the signal stops, works great once you perfect the process but depends on knowing where your wire is. My total loop is more than 400 metres and I can find a break a few minutes using this method, unfortunately it doesn't stop the fox from digging up the wire up and chewing it, it usually pulls out about 5 to 6 metres

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No instructions but actually did the job quite well
*by W***R on 9 July 2019*

I wanted to trace a buried mains cable which ran from my garage to the house.I purchased this unit with some trepidation, as it has had very mixed reviews.It arrived with absolutely no instructions (although I read that other reviewers who did get instructions found them very poor). However, I found some helpful hints in reviews on the Amazon.com (US) site.Having isolated the cable at the contact breaker in the house, I connected one side of the transmitter to the live conductor at the garage end, and the other side to an earth rod (a piece of metal pipe, driven about a foot into the ground). I was then able to follow the buried cable successfully to the house. Note that the received tone increases as the detector approaches the cable, goes to null when directly above it and increases again on the other side until it eventually drops off.In my case, the cable was only about 6" to 12" below the surface and was ordinary T&E in a plastic conduit (yes, I will be replacing it with armoured). Whether it would have found armoured cable I don't know.Anyway, the device worked for me and cost less than hiring a "proper" detector.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ no manual but when downloaded very easy to use
*by M***N on 22 May 2020*

The only real problem at first sight was the lack of a manual. Fortunately I'd was very easy to get an English version from the Internet.Having an in ear headset was certaintly a nice touch. Batteries were easy to fit.Will update in a few days.updatepity about no manual but downloaded one. followed insrtructions and found the device pretty easy to use in my application which was tracing a boundary wire for a robotic mower. the detector located the wire within a few millimetres. pretty impressive.based on my experiences the device has to be recommended.
