Amp Hound 2™ • AMP2 • Introduction
The Amp Hound 2™ is the next level of simplicity and speed in hand-held
automotive current (amperage) measuring tools. This is a revolutionary method of
current measurement that now makes it possible to determine the amount of cur-
rent in a fused circuit, in real time, without removing the fuse.
With the proprietary Audible Current Locator (ACL)* function, it is now possible
to read fluctuating current in real time and troubleshoot parasitic drain problems
without removing power from the circuit! Reading current (amperage) amounts,
finding rogue power drains and identifying active/inactive circuits in hard to access
or unlabeled fuse boxes is now greatly simplified.
The user simply places a standard set of test leads across the top of the fuse or
attaches an included fuse adapter to the fuse. The Amp Hound 2™ ACL feature
then analyzes the circuit and provides the appropriate tone based on the type of
circuit found. In the case of a live circuit (3 quick beeps), the amperage information
is instantly revealed in the numeric display. If there is no current, the user will hear
1 quick beep.
