Gas Leak Detector by Forensics | 10ft Drop Test Pass | Natural Gas, Alcohols, Methane, Combustibles, Acetone, Ethanol, Propane, Butane, Gasoline, Diesel, IPA, Toluene, LPG, LNG |

Absolutely a game changer, this meter works amazing for when you have to do installs or if you think there is a leak. If you work or service restaurants, best tool to have in your arsenal.

I had a propane leak to my gas grills, yes my BBQ and Blackstone from my 250 gallon tank and I couldn't figure out why I was refilling so frequently. I bought this meter to check and test all of my connections. I found a massive leak and my valve that goes to my grills that is separate of my in house appliances at the valve. I took everything apart after the valve and bought new connections and resealed them and tested them again and came up with 0ppm leaks. Worth the money for this detector. I recommend.

It was able to confirm the leak I thought I was smelling, however it was quite slow in response and hard to pinpoint the exact source. The display is nice and easy to read, and the instructions are pretty straight forward.

Working great

This little meter works great. Used it to pinpoint a tiny natural gas leak at the back of a range, probably since it was installed two years ago. Well worth it. Appears sensitive (picked up natural gas at a level below what my wife and I could smell), has a nice digital readout, simple to operate.My wife and I would very occasionally smell a trace of gas near the range, but could not pinpoint it. The majority of the time we could smell nothing no matter how hard we tried, and assumed it was associated with the small amount of gas that would escape before the burners lit. I grew suspicious, and bought this meter. Immediately it detected the hotspot was where the range met the wall at the back. I pulled out the range, and the hose and valved looked new and in good shape. Further detective work with the meter narrowed it down to the connection at the valve. I unscrewed the hose and found that the installers didn't use tape or pipe thread compound! Added gas pipe tape, screwed everything back together, and all is good as confirmed by the meter. Nice product!

I was hoping to get a solution for our gas leak testing needs but unfortunately this product turned out to be so bad that you wouldn't even work the first time that I tested it. It came with three triple A alkaline batteries and it wouldn't start so I put ting fresh batteries and again he wouldn't even start. What a waste of money.

This product is great for checking my kegerator for R290 leaks and made the job easy and safe. I used it to repair my commercial kegerator which needed a re-charge of R290 refrigerant. R290 is purified and dried Propane gas and it is important to do a leak test with the detector before, during and after recharging.This was a quick repair/recharging and I saved a lot by buying this rather than calling out a repair person. It was the most expensive part of the kegerator repair, but the detector is well made and I am sure will give many years of service. It's Amazing how sensitive it is to very small amounts of explosive gas. I tested it on the BBQ and even a quick 1/2 second twist of the control to release gas was detected by this unit. Thanks!

I had a slight gas leak from an oven which I was trying to locate. There was sometimes a faint smell of gas in the house. I could smell it from the back of the oven but I couldn't determine, using my nose, if it was a lose connection or a sticking valve.Originally I bought a cheap gas detector from the PANGAEA brand for $25. This had a range of 0 - 10,000 ppm but it's sensitivity was terrible. I zeroed it outside the house but the only gas it would detect was if I switched a burner on.This Forensics detector is amazing. I zeroed it outside the house again. As soon as I bought it inside the house it registered 70 ppm. It was sensitive enough that I could hold the sensor over the various connections and pin down the leak to the valve going to the oven and not the broiler.It's 4x the price but it works. The ability to zero the readings, switch the sensitivity between high and low and to switch the buzzer off are useful. It's small and feels good in the hands with the rubber finish.I wish the display was a bit brighter and I don't like that the battery compartment is held in place by a screw. This isn't going to be used very much so I don't want to leave the batteries in it all the time. Having to find a screwdriver to open the compartment is an inconvenience.

Works well

The forensic detector failed in less then 2.5 months.Very disappointed!
