Here’s a tool whose time has come: Gardner Bender’s CircuitAlert.
This series of tools, released a few years ago and recently upgraded, combines basic electrician’s hand tools — utility knife, side-cutters (or dykes), screwdriver and swivel-head work-light (with hanger) with an on-board AC voltage tester.
The tester, a little bigger than a typical Bluetooth ear piece for your cell phone, tucks into the handle of each tool. True to the name, it senses current in live wires.
