⚡ At a Glance
- • Light Brightness: Extremely bright flash, visible on timing marks even in strong daylight
- • Best for: Mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who tune 12V ignition systems
- • Not ideal for: Engines without a 12V ignition system or fully electronic timing setups
Pistol-style timing light with a sliding spark plug sensor clip and extra-long test lead. Designed for 12V automotive, motorcycle and marine petrol engines, with operation up to 1000 rpm.
Clear timing marks at any light level, with a specialised bright flash bulb
Specialised bulb produces an extremely bright flash that illuminates timing marks on the flywheel or pulley, improving mark visibility even in direct sunlight. The bright pulse makes the scale easier to read under strong workshop lighting.
Clear, bright flash makes reading and setting ignition timing straightforward outdoors or under strong lights.
Secure sensor connection, with a sliding spark plug clip and extra-long test lead
Sliding clip attaches directly to the high-voltage line of the first cylinder for a secure electrical pick-up, while a 4.54 feet test lead gives reach across tight engine bays. A long lead allows checks without awkward repositioning of the battery clamps.
Simple attachment and generous lead length reduce setup time and increase flexibility during on-vehicle checks.
Durable, workshop-friendly construction, with ergonomic handle and safety protections
Pistol-type handle includes comfortable press keys and an ABS shell for long service life, while reverse polarity and overload protection safeguard batteries and equipment; metal alligator clips have rubber sleeve protectors for safer handling.
Comfortable for repeated use, with built-in protections that lower the risk of electrical damage during diagnostics.
