Fluke 1LAC-A-II Low Voltage Detector, 1000V AC Voltage

This voltage detector works much better than my Milwaukee one. That’s on me. I read the reviews before I bought the Milwaukee one but decided for my purposes it would be fine. Turns out I was wrong. I don’t even think there was a significant difference in price. I’ve been so happy with my Dewalt to Milwaukee tool changeover and all my Milwaukee tools have exceeded my expectations to the point that I figured it would HAVE to be decent. Plus I know that a good deal of bad reviews are from people who don’t know what they’re doing. However, in this case they were right. The Milwaukee one does not live up to expectations. I am not an electrician, but I do low voltage electrical work in industrial automation applications. Low voltage being 24vdc. I truly do not care whether 24vdc applications are hot or not. However, in the same cabinet there may also be 440+ vac, which I do very much care about. I assess each job individually and find and mitigate risks as necessary and the Milwaukee voltage detector has failed me both by embarrassing me AND by placing me in harm’s way. I had to break out my meter which negated the whole purpose for carrying a voltage detector. I immediately tested this Fluke voltage detector when I received it and am MUCH happier with it, just/ even on residential outlets you can clearly see the difference.

Great value! Best voltage tester I have ever used.

It’s Fluke, can’t recommend enough

I chose this one because I got the impression this was not as sensitive as other ones; however, it seems to detect potential at such a distance that it's hard to tell where the potential is actually coming from.

What a handy little tool......... find this to be my 'go to' tool to check for power problems down to thermostat control voltages. So simple and mindless to use, and it works perfectly, just be sure to read the instructions and obey the safety warnings, and understand what it is designed to do. My voltmeter is quite lonely these days........... relegated to those tougher troubleshooting chores only.

I'm restoring an older home and some of the wires aren't color code wired so I wasn't about to guess which was the 'hot' one. This tool is great it helped me install new light switches and electrical outlets plus one overhead light I couldn't get connected right. A must for any handyman who would dabble in electrical work.Small enough to fit in shirt pocket, long battery life, light to tell you which wire is hot and long battery life.

This tester is great use it everyday as a service tech, my only dislike to it is that it can be overly sensitive when multiple circuits are in a box other than that like this pencil for the price.

It won't fit into a receptacle. Maybe I read the description wrong, but I needed something to check outlets.

Good

Works good and was delivered verry fast. Very happy with purchase.

Works really well but stupid me ordered the wrong model. This one is low voltage 20 to 90VAC. I'm still glad I have this test instrument though. Fluke is the best, no question.
