I saw this on "Holmes on Homes", a Canadian tv series on home repair and remodeling.

I paid around $15 a Home Depot and it is great.
The tip is rectangular so it fits right into a wall plug or you just touch it to any rubber coated live wire and the light blinks Red and also has a loud beeping. No worries about getting a shock.
It flashes RED and beeps when you plug it into the HOT slot of a wall plug to show you which is hOT and which is NEUTRAL. Lowes has them too.
Hope this helps someone.
OK, where did I screw up on the URL?
