Hi

I have a Kewtech KT65 meter with Kewtech Lightmate adapters. Generally I'm very happy with them, but I've struggled when testing G9 lampholders. I'm a new member here so I can't post a picture or link yet, but a G9 halogen lamp is one of the small glass envelope lamps with wire loops sticking out the bottom. The socket for a G9 lamp has a very narrow opening and won't let a Kewtech test probe through to the contact.

Has anyone come across a suitable adapter or probe for G9s?

Thanks in advance.

Bill
