It would take a longer time period to truly evaluate this product as the corrosion resistance of the surfaces along with the durability of the PVC cables will be the key indicators of value. Meanwhile, the cables and probes appear to be well made. As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, the flared design of the main probes can be less than ideal in tight spaces. So, you might want to consider purchasing the Extech TL743 Slim Reach Test Probe Set at the same time. Note the term "set" in the case of the slim reach test probe set is a bit misleading because there are only two probes without case or cables. They will fit nicely in the existing case.
The Extech TL809 Electronic Test Lead Kit is a solid value. There is some room for improvement, such as integrated caps, but this would most likely come with an increase in expense and some additional limitations. For no additional expense, Extech should include the slim leads in the base kit and make the flared probes optional. At this price point, this lead set is highly recommended.
Pros
Nice carrying case
Comes with probes, alligator clips and plunger mini-hooks
Dust caps on conductor surfaces
Cons
Too many small parts
Flared test probes too wide for some applications
The kit comes with a thick tri-fold canvas pouch (black) with three clear vinyl interior pockets, all secured with Velcro-style hook & loop. Inside those pockets are modular components consisting of two roughly 50" (package says 42") lead extensions with banana plug-style connectors (any probe accepting a banana plug should fit these cables), four small caps (removed during use) to protect the lead connectors, two fine point test probes with surrounding banana plugs, two 1" insulated alligator clips, and two plunger-style mini-hooks with 6" cable (extra cable reduces weight on the small wire hooks). Each set of two are coded in red & black.
Those lead extensions plug into the multimeter, while the various probes, clips, or hooks plug into the lead extensions. This modular design allows probe tips to be changed very easily, while also slightly reducing wear & tear on the multimeter (how often cables are plugged in).
The tri-fold pouch, when folded, very roughly measures 7 1/4 wide, 4 1/2 tall, and 1 1/2 thick (depending on how much is stuffed inside). The pouch spreads out to almost 17" opened. There's easily enough room inside for the original multimeter probes (with small accessories you might have) and all items included with this kit. There's a windowed business card / ID card pocket on the back of the pouch.
Everything, from the pouch to the leads, seems to be made very well. No poor sewing or loose threads on the pouch. Electrical connections (plugs) are smooth and firm. And the cables are every bit as thick & flexible as those included with my Fluke 115 multimeter. Of course, all fit and worked perfectly with that Fluke multimeter. Considering the price of Fluke probes and probe accessories (seemingly no better), this is an exceptional deal.
I am genuinely surprised at the quality for the price. While not top of the line, they are far from the bottom! These would be excellent leads for a student to use in school, which they could then take with them onto the job site, to use until they wear them out. I bought them for home use, in the house, and in my garage for working on my cars and motorcycle, but I might pick up a second set for use at work, as well. I would not only recommend them to anyone, I may order a second set for myself! Cheers!
