Gadget, e.g. (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inspector

(Other definitions for inspector that I've seen before include "Person whose job it is to examine efficiency as in schools" , "Examining official" , "Police officer" , "leading rank" , "bluebottle!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
