rydogg 186 #4 Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Looks like an electric fence tester....the four holes probably have lights that will let you know how strong the pulse is. Could also be a spark tester, alligator clip goes to ground and pen type tip goes into the spark plug boot. Edited June 10, 2013 by rydogg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chazm 413 #5 Posted June 10, 2013 Here's what my friend said when I told him a sprk plug tester... "spark tester ????? just how does this work.... no lights... single wire, inside the vented tube the wire is tightly coiled all the way to the copper tip... the alum. "end" unscrews like a pen." My reply... its a freakin eletric pen... He send an email to snap-on to see what it is.. waiting their responce Chasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,374 #6 Posted June 10, 2013 Looks like something we used to stick in the ground after a rain to make the earthworms come to the surface. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 23,307 #8 Posted June 10, 2013 It sure looks like a tester of some sort to me...looks like what we used at the phone company to look for AC voltage on our DC voltage stuff. The lack of LED's makes me wonder if that is true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
