Used them on a visit to australia they were not testo maybe yellow jacket I found them to be excellent and may purchase a set soon,handled with care they should last
Have a look at the testo 550. Exactly the same gauges just a 2 way block rather than the 4way, cheaper aswel.
Cheers for that, do you know if they’re any good as I’ve heard they are prone to leak?Quote:

Compared to normal gauges, temperature probe and a vac gauge I think the price is competitive. The higher model gives you access to the software from your pc and you can do pressure tests and the test can be logged and completely transformed into a pressure test certificate for comissioning purposes.
I have never had an issue with them except one, batteries. Batteries are a pane in the behind and they always fail at the worst time. Same with all digital gauges though.
I have used all the main makes and for me the Testo ones are amongst the best if not the best.
