Some reveiws say it doesnt beep. Is this true? or do they just have it on the wrong setting.

This particular tester does not beep, it just lights up. When it lights up it is very obvious. I am very pleased with this tester.

I own many of these and none beep; I think the beep would be a bother and just use more battery power. I love these superb devices and the simplicity of using them. I've had some over 10 years and all still operate fine. I take one any time I'm working on any circuit, no matter how simple.... and I use them.

It does not beep. It lights up when exposed to voltage within its range. It has a test button to ensure its functioning. Fluke has a model that beeps if you want that feature.

The 2AC only lights up, but the model "1AC II A1" beeps and lights up. The 1AC's beep can be shut off by holding down the power button while the tester is powering up. Turning off the tester re-enables the beep the next time the tester is turned on. The 2AC is always on.

Mine only beeps when a button is being pressed. Make sure none of the buttons are stuck in the "pressed in" position.

We have to shake the water out of ours to get it to stop beeping but even without doing that it only beeps for about 20 mins before turning off. I would say its a defective unit.

When I first installed mine I did not put the battery in right away. It did not beep at all. Hope this helps answer your question.

It does NOT keep beeping until you turn it off. The beeping sound is not loud enough to hear a few rooms away. Mine quit beeping after about a month but it still counts down time.

I think it does beep when it turns off, but I can't say for sure. I think if you go to their website, it may indicate whether it does or not.

No, it does not beep. It's a pretty decent rig. One of the buttons gave out after three months of heavy use. Sent it back and received a new one in a few days. Still going strong after nine months of heavy daily use.

No it does not beep. I don't think it makes any noises, because my kids have had them for about two months and I have not heard them beep at all. (The kids do use them every night for reading).

Yes. It beeps. Not very loud though. I have not seen anything in the instructions where it can be turned off.

Yes, it beeps incessantly. Every time it is moved from being flush on your arm (i.e. you simply move your arm), it beeps off until you move your arm again and then it beeps back on.

Yes, it retains the setting unless you clear it. My problem is the beeper is not loud enough for me. Otherwise, it works great.

No, it doesn't beep. I've also found that I need to set lower temperatures than I did using my previous toaster.

The only way I know how it turn the volume off. It won't beep when its done but it will still light up when is done. HTH.

Good question; but, unfortunately no. It keeps beeping but stops at that. You have to turn off the alarm. Then the face shows original set time and you have to clear that. Sorry.

The question was about the beeping when powering it on or off, not when you loose power. My unit beeps too when powering it on or off. However, the beeps that mine makes are not loud. Perhaps I have an older or newer model. I have not seen anything in the settings that allow the beep volume to be changed.

There are no electronic beeps. I have mine in a small bedroom and it's never kept me awake with noise. I love mine.

I have to respectfully disagree with the comment from NM Norma. Maybe she has an older or different version of this timer. I have a recent version, approximately one month old, and it beeps non-stop until I hit the reset button. I find this to be a very helpful feature. It's also pretty loud, but not TOO loud. I'm not sure if it would be loud enough to be heard from upstairs, especially if there are a lot of other noises in the house, but the great thing is that it has a belt clip so you can simply take it with you wherever you go. :)
