Wave the pen near any wire or socket and it tells you instantly — red, yellow or green plus an audible alarm. No probes into metal, no guesswork, no shock.
Read the full descriptionDescription
Wave the pen near any wire or socket and it tells you instantly — red, yellow or green plus an audible alarm. No probes into metal, no guesswork, no shock.
Safe non-contact electrical voltage detection with zero fire line judgment
- Danger of direct contact with live wires
- Difficulty determining voltage levels quickly
- Need for separate tools (voltage tester and flashlight)
Know a wire is live before you ever touch it
Wave the pen near any wire or socket and it tells you instantly — red, yellow or green plus an audible alarm. No probes into metal, no guesswork, no shock.
Three Warnings Before You Touch

Three colors tell you the voltage level
Red for high, yellow for medium, green for low gives an instant glance verdict no neon tester offers. Even in a dark panel, the glowing LED window is unmistakable.

Non-contact NCV with triple alarm
Light, color and sound fire together — a rapid beep and flashing red grab your attention even in noisy job sites or sun glare. You don't need to look directly at the indicator to know there's danger.

A flashlight that's always there
Built-in LED lights the junction box, crawlspace or attic so you test and see with one hand and one tool. No fumbling for a separate light while your other hand holds the pen.

Tune out the false alarms
Three sensitivity buttons let you dial detection up for deep wiring or down to avoid ghost voltage. One press cycles through sensitivity modes so the pen works in dense panels without random triggering.
Facts That Matter

- 3Sensitivity levels
- 3Voltage indicators
Detect Voltage In Two Seconds
- 1Power on and set sensitivity
Press any button to wake the pen. Tap the sensitivity button to cycle through low, medium or high — start high for general detection, then dial down if you get false signals.
- 2Sweep the probe near the target
Hold the probe tip close to the wire, outlet or cable. You don't need to touch metal — the NCV sensor detects the electric field through insulation.
- 3Read the color and listen
Red glow and rapid beeping means high voltage; yellow and moderate beeping medium; green and slow beeping low. No light and no sound means it's safe to proceed.

From risky assumptions to safe checks
- 1The wire you thought was dead
You're inches away, screwdriver in hand, and a faint voice says 'it should be off.' That hesitation is your body knowing what your tools haven't confirmed.
- 2Guessing is not a safety plan
A neon screwdriver needs direct metal contact and gives one dim glow. A multimeter ties up both hands with leads. Neither answers the first question — is it live? — with the glance-and-go speed you need.
- 3A warning before contact
This pen speaks first. Wave it near a wire and the clear probe tip glows, the alarm sounds, and the LED panel lights the color that matches the voltage. No guesswork, no contact.
- 4Three jobs, one pocket
Voltage detector, break tracer, and flashlight live in a single matte black body. One tool that replaces three, so every bag carries a full safety check.

Questions and answers
Yes. Place the probe tip near the wire or hold it against a wall plate over a live cable and the alarm triggers. It works through standard PVC insulation and drywall, but sensitivity level may need adjustment for deeply buried wires.
Absolutely. Three sensitivity buttons let you cycle through low, medium and high. Use low for crowded junction boxes where multiple wires can cause cross-talk, or high when the wire is several inches behind a surface.
Yes. Insert the probe into an outlet slot or sweep it across bare conductors. The triple alarm (light, color, sound) will indicate live voltage either way.
The LED window glows red for high voltage (typically 70-1000V AC), yellow for medium, and green for low. A rapid beeping pattern and flashing light also intensifies with higher voltage.
Yes. Both functions are powered by the two AAA batteries inside the handle. Battery life is generous; the pen automatically powers down to conserve energy when idle.
Designed for anyone who needs to verify a circuit is dead before touching it. The non-contact detection keeps fingers away from metal, and the audible alarm leaves no room for misinterpretation. Still, always test on a known live source first to confirm the pen is working.
