I took a long holiday weekend to visit my daughter in Colorado. The weather was gorgeous up in the mountains and we went kayaking, hiking, cooked some great food (well, she cooked, I ate), drank wine and just had a wonderful time.
I even did a little home repair for her just to keep in practice.
While browsing through the inflight catalogue on the plane I found something that sounds really nifty.

| Quickly locate the right 120v circuit breaker or fuse, without guessing! When you need to turn off a 120v circuit breaker or remove a fuse, you won't have to yell upstairs, "Is it off yet?" several times. And safer yet, you won't have to guess. (Besides, playing "trial-and-error" with switches can mess up your VCR, digital clocks and computer.) This digital Circuit Detective makes it simpler. Plug the UL-listed transmitter into an outlet on the circuit you want to locate. (Also works with your own screw-in plug adapter for light fixtures.) Go downstairs and run the receiver's tip over the breakers or fuse rows until the arrow illuminates and the speaker beeps. That's the breaker or fuse you want. Won't trigger ground fault interrupters. Manual/automatic off. 9v battery not included for receiver. Patented. |

Here's the link Circuit Detective .
Since I have a maze of knob-and-tube and added on Romex, one of the items on my to-do list has been to create a schematic map of whats on what circuit breaker.
Stay tuned for a product review....
