Did exactly what I need
This made tracing wires easy. Would have been much worse had I not had it

Much improved over the old one
This replaced a previous Klein toner that worked when it felt like it. Although this one does not quit fit in the case I have from them it works. My only comment is the auto shut off that shuts off at the worst possible time.

I'm a Klein tools fan boy
Most of my Klein tools are still serviceable many years on. I don't expect this (being an Electonic device) to last as long as my mechanical tools but I do expect many, many years of service from it. So far it meets the bar for a tracer of this type and works as expected. I'm impressed with how loud and clear the signal is when it's detected.

Great tester
Great tester, for a lot less money then other brands. Make sure you get the matching case for it. Look like a pro, work like a pro.

Works great as long as you have enough power on the line you're tracing
I started out trying to trace ethernet cables with the VDV500-123 and the Klein Lan Scout Jr 2. This worked ok as long as you could touch the cable with the tip of the probe but didn't work through walls or even wall plates. I tested the output of the Lan Scout and it was only about 1.18V into a 10kohm resistor, or about -8.5dBm of power. The Klein VDV500-705 says it puts out +8.5dBm for toning, so I hooked an audio signal generator to my ethernet cable running at 1kHz and 7 volts, or about 7dBm. This let me detect a cable with the VDV500-123 out to around 6-12". It would go through walls with no problem. This let me trace my wires all over my house. The only problem I ran into was that wires that were bundled together for long distances would couple the tone signal from one into other ones. Once I found all of the points the wires ended at, I could still tell the difference between them though.
