Yup, I have seen that one too, from memory it's about $500 + the RIV tool.
As I have the notch tool which gives the various measurements, I am thinking about making one just for the odd use it will get.
My thoughts are a screw in plastic adaptor with two thin foil contacts mounted horizontal, the contacts would be the thickness of the notch apart.
Connect a small battery/lamp in series which would illuminate only when the notch has completed the circuit.
Just a thought, will have a play around with a few ideas if I get something workable will post
