Rating And Reviews: KMI BattOMeter

Plug the gold-plated Power Probe into the 1/4-inch input on most instruments and effects pedals to test the life remaining in a hard-to-reach battery.

Feature: works great as a battery tester, but don't expect it to work plugged into all pedals. It only works on about half of the input jacks I have. For the rest you have to take the battery out to test it, but still better than anything I had before. Value: Great buy Overall: Not quite the plug in tester I was hoping, but a great tool for giggers.

VERIFIED BUYER
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Sound: I bought this tester to test the batteries in my guitars. Tried it on my Breedlove with LR Baggs State Pro element, an Epi with a Fishman and 4 Taylors. All six guitars activate when you plug in 1/4" plug. It did not work on either one of them. Feature: I wish it would work on guitars like advertised. Quality: Seems to be built well but in my opinion it doesn't do what it's advertised to do. Value: It would be well worth the cost if it did what it's advertised to do but it's not worth it to me for what I paid. Manufacturer Support: I've emailed them asking about this problem and have yet to get a response. Overall: I already had a battery tester and only purchased this one thinking I could use it to test my batteries while still in my instrument by simply inserting the 1/4" plug. I really thought this would save me a lot of time testing batteries but I'm right where I was before I bought it, having to pull the batteries out of the instrument and testing it manually. If you're looking for something to just test your batteries this will work but if you're looking for something to save you time by checking your battery while it's still in your instrument this is not what you're looking for. Very disappointed and sorry I bought it.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

3. You'll get your gear fast

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

4. We make returns super easy

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
