Recently I get one REALISTIC tube-battery-continuity tester, Model T-B-C (CAT. no. 22-20-32), USA made I guess judging for the plug (120 V, USA normal plug) and no operations Manual!
Any help or information about the manufacturer, the year or the manner of testing or operating this model is very welcomed!
all the best,
