Tester Works

Although I've only tested a few relays, the 191 Relay Buddy Pro seems to work perfectly and has a quality feel. I like that it allows me to test a variety of pronged relays. The tester and its accessories are easy to use, priced right, and nicely packaged in a hard case. I would definitely recommend this product to others.
