I am in the same boat as the other IDEAL people here... the Vol-Con tester is an excellent tool. Up here in Canada, it is common for commercial and industrial 600V applications.

The Vol-Con is extremely reliable, can be dropped (an Ideal rep, to demonstrate its durability and reliability, threw it 20 feet in the air and let it drop on concrete, then took the thing and smacked it a few times against the wall, and it still worked as good as new!) and the built in continuity tester is great for testing bad fuses and stuff.

Well worth every penny spent on this tool.

The tester we use is the 61-076 under the 'Solenoid Voltage Tester' heading.
