• Silence the loud audible buzzer with mute switch when preferred

• The self-test function ensures reliable and safe operation

• Mount the detector five different ways for hands-free or hands-on use: lanyard, clip, handheld, arm strap, or mount onto hot stick (not included)

• Universal spline allows use with hot sticks* to extend reach while remaining at a safe distance

• Designed with a textured hand grip for easy operation while wearing gloves
