These are very useful in fixing outlets and switches that are wired reversed. AC works either way, but the safety features of house wiring is somewhat defeated by 50:50 guesses when the builder or a firmer owner was wiring it up

You should also check some other outlet or power source to be sure you get a positive response from the tester. Once you're sure the device is detecting current, test the outlet or power source that you want to work on. A negative find at that point is much safer because you've determined that the tester is working.

Step one is finding the damn thing for me. When I need it, it is never there, and when I don't, it's always the first thing I find.

This should always be your first step, not your final step. A VOM should always be your final step. Are you willing to gamble?
