I use these devices to help people who are hard of hearing. These people have tried the loop function on their hearing aids and don't like the sound. The ADASTRA LR2 INDUCTION LOOP TESTER/RECEIVER fits their purpose and they are delighted. It comes with a pair of ear-phones, but I replace these with silicone earbud phones - or some people prefer to wear headphone that are open (light type). CONS: The only con is that they come without instructions and it is not obvious how to open the battery compartment - which actually slides open.

This is at first a very confusing product. To turn it on, fit the battery and insert headphones. When on the red led lights, and is activated by inserting a 3.5cm Jack plug. The switch activates a low pass filter quite well. The volume knob adjusts the volume level in the earphones. Once you get used to these quirks it is actually pretty good. You can hear what hearing aid users on "t" setting. In su.mary it does the job at an affordable price

I purchased the tester to check a portable & temporary loop set ups are functioning satisfactorily so that hearing impaired at the meeting can hear clearly and so follow the proceedings. One niggle, there were no user instructions with my unit and it is not clear that inserting the 3.5mm headphone jack activates the unit. There is a small toggle switch, for bas cut, with the word 'ON' marked. At first sight this could be the on-off switch as the similar Monacor unit uses. This Adastra does what it claims at a realistic price.

Quality is ok but for the purposes of checking the installation of a hearing loop system this item is perfect. It is well worth the money to confirm a hearing loop works when you do not have the option of checking it by someone with a hearing aid. it has the benefit that checks can be made on a regular basis to ensure the loop remains effective. One other point to note is that interference caused by other electrical circuits or lighting etc can be checked whilst still being connected to the unit.

For the price, this is a good little unit to detect if a hearing loop is functioning correctly. I prefer my own light weight earphones rather than the supplied earpiece. Hearing loops are not HiFi neither is this unit so generally well matched for quality. The apparent off / on switch isn’t ! You turn the unit on by inserting the headphone jack plug. The switch activates a simple filter.
