Pros & Cons
Pros
The voltage sensor is sensitive and responsive. The read out is very well laid out and readable at a glance. The laser is pinpoint accurate and the measurement function can be set include or exclude the instrument length.
Cons
Trying to navigate klein's website and warranty instructions was a nightmare. I hope they issue a full refund or upgraded replacement device.
It's a very mediocre voltage tester and thermometer. As much as 30 degrees off. The thermometer is 10 degrees off (greater than the 3-5 degree tolerance the manufacturer states) with no way to calibrate.
The tailcap is a bad design shears off without warning. The included batteries are used and dead. Having to loosen and tighten the battery compartment seems to be the only solution.
This tool is for homeowners and diyers only. I expected more durability. Ncv seems to work ok, but considering how bad the ir is, how can you trust it?

Tested against my other major electrical testing brand ir thermometer and it was reading under 1 to 2 degrees up to about 150 degrees after that it was under by 5 to 10 degrees

Constantly 10 degrees off at 250 to 275 degrees so at least it is consistent and may be within tolerances

You can just shove it under a faucet to hit whatever desired temprature you need to pass inspection
