I bought this just so there is no doubt that I'm working with dead wires. For me, it's well worth the $15 or $20 that I paid for it. You turn it on and you just touch the wires you want to check and it will tell you if they are hot. Unlike a multi meter, it doesn't take two hands and it doesn't require getting to bare copper.

I have that very same tool and normally use it every time, just didn’t have it with me! Wish I had!!! I had my multi meter and didn’t use it and like I said, I KNOW better!!! Painful reminder to always do it the right way!
