    FANTASTIC! Totally recommended if you rebuild monitors often. I got so tired of making adjustments running a game board that may or may not be working correctly, or on a customers game that I’m not familiar with the colors of. This takes that problem out of the equation! Plus it’s super portable and so easy to use. Even has a burn-in screen. I don’t know why I didn’t buy this earlier. Buy it! Do it! You won’t regret it.

    A very handy product to have for troubleshooting. Saves a lot of time and doesn’t require much space. Manual is very thorough as well. It would be nice if a larger variety of adapter cables were available to purchase with the unit, but it’s easy to build more.

      We do make several other adapters but not all of them are on the site so please ask if you need a different one and we are always happy to make it.

    I can’t believe I went this long without buying one! Must own if you do any of your own repairs/testing on your arcade monitors!

    Awesome bit of kit. Keeps from having to pull monitors in and out of cabs. Just set it up on the bench, and dial the monitor in after a cap kit.

    Got this beauty Saturday, spent Sunday making up a few different cables and went around to every monitor on Monday. This thing is awesome. Takes a bit of reading to set up and get running but once it does, it takes all the guessing out of adjusting monitors. Wish I had bought a silicone cover for it because I don’t want to damage it! Build quality is outstanding. Menu is fun to learn but very robust. Wish I had bought this years ago.
