PetSafe Wire Break Locator - Effective & Accurate Fault Detector with Dual-Tone Detection - Wire Signal Tester - Fence Troubleshooting & Diagnostic Tool In-Ground Fence Repair Accessory

This device made finding the break in my line fast and easy. Highly recommend!

Well worth the cost. I have a 5 acre dog fence. I agree with other reviewers. I set it up exactly as said in the instructions then followed the instructions to track the underground wire. 10 min later i was splicing the broken wire using the included splice hardware Great product (and i dont say that often)

The locator, with the grounding the wire kit set up, was very easy to use and found several breaks in the wire. Once I fixed the detected breaks with the gel-filled capsules, the controller stopped beeping and my dog could be out in our yard safe once again. However, the locator was not able to detect breaks near the house from chipmunks nawing through the wire - there was just enough of a connection that it was not a complete break. That has always been a problem and I knew I had to dig around my front stoop to find them which I did and fixed them with the gel-filled capsules.

Worked as advertised! Found the wire break within 10 minutes of set up! Fixed as quickly with repair kit! Dog fence is back in service, though our dog is not as happy about the repair as I am!

I wish this was available 20 years ago. It would have saved me untold money when we redid landscaping, and I paid the local Invisible Fence franchise $300+ each time they came out to locate and fix a fence break. Some time ago I tried using an electronic component and an AM radio as instructed by the Internet but was never able to get this arrangement to work. This unit is easy to set up and easy to use. As an added bonus, the instructions are both clear and concise (a nice change of pace). I bought it to locate a break I created last week while replacing fence posts. I had a general idea of where the break was and located it to within a foot in less than five minutes. I would like to think that anyone who can read and follow simple instructions can be successful locating breaks with this unit and save themselves the trouble and expense of paying a service to do it for them.

Not worth the hassle to attempt to find problem. I am handicapped and had my daughter come from NC to VA to try to find the problem in my invisible's fence. She can conquer all computer problems and even works for a leading dog food company visiting veterinarians in 4 states and leading Pet Stores in her territory. We could not locate the problem nor had anyone dug to sever or break the line…… too much of a problem. Not worth the aggravation to deal with!

I would give this 10 stars if I could! If you have an in ground fence you need this. It’s not if it’s going to break, it’s when. I found my break in just a few minutes. I have used other methods to find a break and they were very time consuming and back breaking. Everything about this kit is great. Even the extending stick thing is long enough for me and I’m 6’5” tall. I know it’s pricey, but just get it. It’s sooooo worth it. There’s a video on YouTube to show how to use it. Just watch it and follow the simple instructions.

Worked as it should. Pretty easy to find break in wire. My only complaint would be the wire that came with the kit. Whoever the person that coiled it up needs to be hit on the head with a tack hammer. What a mess it was. Petsafe should have spent the extra 25 cents to put it on a roll or something else.
