Actron CP7529 Works Well.
I received the Actron CP7529 sooner than expected!! The unit works well, great quality, however, the RPM meter is reversed between 2 cycle and 4 cycle. Not a major big deal, but not expected, you just switch to read the correct RPM's. I like the unit and is better priced than the more expensive types.

The first one I received was DOA, but Amazon's replacement process was fast and easy so I soon had a replacement. The timing light works very well and has a bright display. It's plastic so it is really light and may not take much abuse, so I guess time will tell. I was able to quickly determine the centrifugal advance on my boat engine and set the timing accurately. The digital tach feature is great for making rpm adjustments. I'm pleased with the purchase.

I bought the CP7529 a year ago. I wanted a decent light for 25 years and finally got it, DIY. I just used it for the first time today on my new 1996 Ford Aspire. Without the manual handy I began using it by pressing the flashlight button, seemed logical. But that shows really fast flashes not a constant flashlight. I thought it was defective at first. Then I pressed the Adv button and got it to time. I would like to learn what to use the Advance feature for. Found the manual online at Actron.
