Solid product, executes all functions I have used flawlessly. I have not used the advance and retard modes yet, due to not having them on the cars that I have used the light on.

This review is from: Equus 5568 Pro-Timing Light with Tool Case (Misc.)

This is a fantastic tool. I bought it to use on my 71 Superbeetle. Although it doesn't seem to indicate timing set to after top dead center,I have used it to successfully set my timing,check out dwell,volts in the charging system and the battery voltage. Maybe with more time on this timing light I will figure how to read before top dead center timing.
Easy to use, nice storage case too!

This review is from: Equus 5568 Pro-Timing Light with Tool Case (Misc.)

I've used this light at least four different times now, and it's a blast to use and so easy. I gave it only four stars, because it does loose sync with the rpm's. The red color also attracts dirt. Setting total time is a breeze. It also monitors voltage level, as well. It has a metal clip to put around the spark plug wire, which is more durable than the plastic ones on some(careful it does get hot). If your in need of a advance timing light with many built in options this is the light for you.
