Current detector

24 November 2014  

The Amp Hound is the latest hand-held diagnostic tool from Alba Diagnostics and offers a new method of measuring amps and reducing the amount of time needed to determine the current in a fused circuit. There’s no need to remove fuses one at a time and check each circuit with a multimeter – the Amp Hound enables you to quickly check the complete fuse box. It is said to be ideal for seeking out a parasitic drain and detects currents as low as 0.005 amps. It works on all types of common automotive fuses, within 6V, 12V or 24V systems. Audible and visual alerts are used to signify active, inactive, open circuits and a digital display shows current value.
