This is a good tool for finding a circuit breaker, it does not let you trace the wiring. I had to buy a fluke signal generator for that. Also, you will get several hits in the circuit panel, so you have to turn off breakers until you turn off the signal. for someone who simply wants to map out their house, it's a good unit. However, once the house is mapped out, you really don't need it anymore. There are cheaper ones that probably would do the same job.

I am disappointed with this tool. It will beep on the wire going to the circuit breaker, but it won't beep on any of the breakers themselves. Means I had to remove the panel cover to locate the right breaker for each circuit. I gave it 3 stars because I can use it, just not according to the instructions. The power switch is too exposed, also. It's hard NOT to press the power button just picking it up or holding. It also gets pressed in my pocket. Good thing is has auto power off, but not sure how that would work if the button stays pressed in a pocket or wherever it's stored. I keep mine in the original bubble package for that reason to protect the power button getting accidentally pressed. On the good side, it does seem to have plenty of transmitter/receiver range.

I have been using this tool for about 5 years now, and it is a very inexpensive, accurate tool for finding 120 volt circuits (breakers) in unmarked panels so you don’t have to work the circuit hot. If you get the accessory kit, you can clip directly to the wiring if you don’t have a standard 20 amp duplex receptacle. I’m a commercial service electrician and use this almost daily.

Works as advertised. I've used this 3 times recently to trace light switches to their circuit breaker in a poorly-labeled panel. The tool quickly identified the breaker on the first attempt in each case. The tool has a hair-trigger, so simply picking it up often triggers the scanning, but that's my only gripe. Good device - wish I had this years ago.

It's not perfect, I did have one set of outlets that it could not identify the breaker, but to be fair, this group of outlets has all kinds of things plugged into it, one of which is a fence less dog collar transmitter and computer. But at my neighbors, it was wonderful in finding an outside outlets unidentified breaker in his 2 breaker boxes. Each search, the receiver has to be calibrated by passing it over all the breakers, then you pass it over them again and the thing will only sound on one breaker.

Good product for any DIY to have. Enables you to locate cicuits breakers for the circuit you want to work on in multiple ways with the kit. But, still check with a multimeter before and after throwing the breaker.
