I am in the market for a simple fiber tester.  I have about 80 pairs runnin=
g through my complex and we are running into some possible issues with some=
 of the really old ones.  The pen light to confirm that it's the right stra=
nd is going to require a little bit more insight to determine if there is a=
n issue with fiber in conduit or patch.

I don't need something super fancy, just need something that gives a good, =
bad or "holy crap is that concrete you are testing on" for starters.  I am =
also shooting for about $150-250 tops.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Blake
