More First Looks

There are nice indented rubber grips on the sides to help in connecting and disconnecting a power supply. I think this is a nice added touch. Most testers are metal and tend to be hard to get a good grip on when a connector is in it tightly.

Looking at the business end, the part where you plug the power supply ATX connector into. We can count 24 holes. The Antec PSU tester can be used with either 20 or 24 pin power supply connectors.

On the cover are 5 LEDs for each voltage line, which will light up Green, Yellow or Red. Indicating the status of the voltages. Red for Over voltage, Yellow for Under and Green for Normal.


Now we move to the bottom of the tester, here we find another set of LEDs, one labeled 'Good' and the other labeled 'Fault'. I think you can figure that one out without me explaining it to you. In this picture you can also see the unique feature I mentioned earlier, the green squares you see on the very bottom are for connecting your multimeter to the tester to get a more accurate reading easily. The group of 3 is for testing 5v, 12, and 3.3v lines, the group of 2 is the ground connector.


Well that's that, for the First Looks.
