VEVOR Underground Cable Locator, 3 FT Max. Detection Depth, Wire Tracer Break Detector Finder with Earphone, 1000 FT Max.Detection Length Cable Tester for Pet Fence Buried Sprinkler Valve Irrigation

I received the Underground Cable Tracer that I ordered quickly. I have already tested it to see if it works as advertised. I tested it on my underground power source cable from my meter pole to my pole barn. Surprisingly, it worked very well. (Disconnect Power, De-energized cable only) It accurately located the cable. That cable is around two feet deep in PVC conduit.What I learned from playing with it, is you have to set it up like the instructions suggest. At first I tested it with a stretched out extension cord on the grass. I wasn't able to test exactly like the instructions suggested. At this point, I was disappointed in how the meter performed. I was already anticipating sending it back.Then I tried it in a real world application on my buried cable... as the instructions suggested. It worked great. It made me proud to have purchased it. I will say it works best with the earphones. The meter lights are for when you aren't using earphones and using max gain. The device's LED meter would be better if it had a low, medium, and high range selection switch so it could be used under different application needs. The meter didn't even register when I was using the earphone and listening to the signal. But, the earphone and signal sound worked very well. Overall, I would recommend this tracer.

Don't waste your time. I did everything stated in the directions including the multiple methods they suggest. Rod in ground was most effective but still only worked for about 20 feet before it no longer was able to trace the wire which is only about 12 inches deep. I will rent the professional version. It is not accurate at all but for some very shallow purposes it might work. Certainly not hard to use. The speaker was fine until it got further away from transmitter then barely audible even with ear phones. Eventually sound just stopped even though I knew the wire was there.

This tool makes it easy to find a broken wire location. It took less than 3 minutes to come within 6 inches of the break. Very effective. I connected the red wire to my worx landroid wire and the black to a screwdriver I stuck in the ground. Then follow the path until the noise stops. That simple. The long wire on the handle allows me to walk the path vs crawling.

Worked well

Follow directions as written. Worked extremely well locating my in ground dog fence wire. Very accurate.

Claims to read wires 3ft deep. I wasn't able to tone out a buried 16-2 three inches under ground. Also throws cross talk like crazy. You might be connected to one wire but hearing a tone from any wire that crosses near said wire. Seems to be just regular cheap toner set with a hanging probe.

I have about 800ft. of underground dog fence which is from 1-3 inches deep when I got to the break I could barely hear the beep sound and that was with the ear piece in. The maker should boost the signal output. I don't think it would cover 1,500 feet and especially 3 ft deep.
