But am not sure about the Genica brand. The whole package looks like a good deal. Any opinions?

Answer 1

I've used a couple of boxes of the cable and it is fine. No problems.

You will find that the tools included are fairly low end but they work. Invest in a quality crimper for the best results!

Answer 2

Hope you read all the notes of usage. Should be fine if used as directed. One note of warning, do not connect the tester to a live connection. Good chance of burning out some of the LED's. I lost two units I loaned out because they did that. Get a really good stripper. Slightest nick in the wire will break with very little flexing and drive you nuts with its intermittent connection.
