The guys I work with have the flukes, but I have not had a situation where this one can't do the same job. Maybe the fluke is more rugged but I take care of my tools so that has not been an issue. At the time I bought this, it was $150 and the fluke was around $400.

Bought this to replace a flaky Fluke before a large scale roll out. Worked okay with regular POTS lines from landline carriers but DataRemote devices seem to have issue with detecting all the key-presses. On the occasion that another guy is onsite with a different buttset, mine was always the one having dialing issues. Sometimes pulse dialing worked, but not reliable enough to depend on. Finally replaced with a newer Fluke that was twice the price, but 100% whenever this one would leave me guessing and looking stupid.

[ Edit 03/05/23...Forgot to include make/model info."Triplett TeleTalker 330 Lineman's Test Set / Butt Set with ABN Test Clips (3330)"Also forgot to mention that it is nicely packaged, if that matters to you at all. It's in a sturdy, glossy white box with magnetic-secured opening flap.End edit 03/05/23 ]Pro's...1. Cost. This was the cheapest "real" buttset available.2. Build. Not built like a tank, but reasonably solid and should withstand some amount of being knocked around.3. It works. For one-off tasks it gets the job done.4. Belt clasp, Cord w/ strain relief and Angled Bed of Nails (ABN) are of decent quality.Cons...1. Shake it and something rattles inside (probably the ear transducer, but I haven't taken it apart yet to find out). Doesn't inspire confidence in the construction.2. No speaker capability; you have to hold it up to your ear to find out if there is dial tone.3. Other buttsets have a "voltage detected" LED that lights green or red (reverse polarity); this one only lights when reverse polarity is detected. When voltage is present with correct polarity, there is no visual indication that voltage is present.4. Nomenclature states "weather resistant housing" but I don't think I would chance using it in the rain, probably should stick to indoor use only.

Couldn't get it working out of the box. Ended up needing to tighten some of the screws to get it working. Seems like it was cheaply and quickly made. In the end though, it did the job alright.

J'ai acheté cet appareil me basant sur son manuel d'utilisateur ou on explique ou se trouve la batterie s'il fallait un jour la remplacer. J'ai donc vérifié quelques jours après réception si la batterie était présente. Malheureusement il n'y a pas de batterie. J'aurais retourné cet achat mais mon occupation de l'été m'as fait oublier ce problème. J'aurais acheté un petit combiné Chinois plus petit avec clips et connecteurs pour quelques dollars et moins de frustrations, mêmes résultats d'utilisation. Voir la photo de l'appareil au-dessus du manuel montrant cette fameuse batterie.
