Ready to ditch pen-and-paper readings? Our Bluetooth smart tools connect straight to your phone or tablet, so you can see live measurements, log results and fire off reports from site in just a few taps. Whether you’re an HVAC tech, sparkie, builder or facility manager, these tools help you work faster, safer and with better documentation across every job.
Bluetooth smart tools are test instruments with built-in wireless connectivity. Instead of squinting at a small display and jotting numbers down, the tool streams data directly to a companion app on your phone or tablet. From there, you can view live readings, tag them to a specific job and share reports with your client or office in seconds.
In this collection, you’ll find smart digital manifolds, wireless vacuum gauges, clamp meters, smart thermometers, hygrometers, anemometers, data loggers and more from brands like Testo, Fieldpiece, AccuTools BluVac, Uni-T and others – giving you over forty Bluetooth-ready tools to choose from for HVAC, electrical and general trade work across Australia.
Wireless digital manifolds and smart probe kits are ideal for modern HVAC and refrigeration diagnostics. Popular options in this range include Testo 550s manifold kits and Testo Smart Probes AC & refrigeration kits, as well as Fieldpiece Job Link probe sets for charge testing and TXV tuning. They calculate values like superheat and subcooling automatically and display the full picture in a clean app dashboard.
For evacuation and dehydration checks, Bluetooth-enabled digital micron gauges such as AccuTools BluVac models let you track progress from a safe distance. Graph views in the app show how quickly pressure is dropping, helping you confirm when the system is dry enough to move on without babysitting the gauge.
Temperature and airflow are at the heart of HVAC diagnostics. Smart thermometers and hygrometers (such as Testo 915i and 605i) and vane or hot-wire anemometers (including Testo 410i and 405i) turn your phone into a flexible measurement hub. You can log supply/return temperatures, airflow at grilles and room humidity, then overlay readings to see how the whole system is behaving.
Bluetooth clamp meters and multimeters let licensed electricians and HVAC techs view voltage, current and power data on their phone, away from tight switchboards or noisy plant. This makes it easier to monitor trends under load, capture screenshots for reports and reduce time standing in front of energised gear.
Rounding out the range are Bluetooth thermal imagers, CO2 meters, IAQ meters and temperature or humidity data loggers. These are ideal for comfort complaints, ventilation checks, mould investigations and long-term monitoring in offices, healthcare, hospitality and education buildings.
This Bluetooth Smart Tools collection is curated for:

Good commissioning and maintenance depend on solid data. App-connected tools make it easier to take more readings, compare results over time and spot issues such as poor charge, blocked filters or ventilation shortfalls before they turn into comfort complaints or high energy bills. When you can export neat PDFs or spreadsheets straight from the app, building tuning and compliance reporting also become much simpler.
From a safety perspective, Bluetooth lets you step back from hot plant rooms, noisy rooftops and tight switchboards while still watching readings in real time. You still need to follow all lockout/tagout and electrical safety rules, but you spend less time right in front of live equipment.
For broader guidance on why accurate testing and commissioning matters to energy efficiency and equipment life, you can refer to independent resources such as the Australian government’s HVAC commissioning and building tuning factsheets, and electrical safety codes from SafeWork regulators.

Most Bluetooth tools follow a similar workflow:
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for safe use and calibration intervals, and make sure only licensed tradespeople work on energised electrical equipment or pressurised refrigeration systems.
Bluetooth smart tools work best as part of a complete test kit. You can round out your toolbox with: hygrometers & humidity meters, indoor air quality meters, thermal imaging cameras and other instruments in our test & measurement collection.

In most cases, no. Almost all Bluetooth smart tools in this collection work with a free companion app from the manufacturer, available for iOS and Android. Some brands offer optional paid cloud services for team dashboards or advanced reporting, but basic pairing, logging and exporting are usually included.
The Bluetooth radio doesn’t change the underlying measurement hardware. These tools use the same types of sensors you’d find in quality non-Bluetooth instruments; the wireless link simply transfers readings to your phone. Accuracy still depends on sensor quality and calibration, so it’s important to follow the manufacturer’s calibration schedule and keep sensors clean and protected.
Effective range varies by brand and environment, but many smart tools offer line-of-sight ranges from around 10 to 100 metres. Walls, plant and metalwork will reduce range, so treat quoted figures as “best case” and position your device accordingly. Some apps show signal strength so you can check connection quality while you work.
Yes. A key benefit of Bluetooth tools is fast documentation. Most apps let you group readings by job or site and export PDFs, CSVs or images that can be emailed to clients, attached to work orders or stored for warranty and compliance records.
The tools themselves are designed for professional environments, but safety always comes down to the operator. Only licensed electricians or appropriately qualified technicians should work on or near live electrical equipment, and you must follow your local SafeWork and WHS requirements, including de-energising equipment where practicable and using appropriate PPE.
Most manufacturers support both iOS and Android, but it’s always worth checking the “Compatibility” or “App” section on the product page. Make sure your phone or tablet OS is up to date and that you allow the app the necessary Bluetooth and location permissions during setup.
For HVAC and refrigeration techs, complete Bluetooth probe kits and smart anemometers are a game-changer:
