There are minimal instructions that came with that tool - it says to use your thumb to ground it. The glow does not appear to correspond to the presence of power or lack of power. If you stick it into an outlet, sometimes a tiny orange glow appears deep inside the tool. The other tool, if you wave it around near the outlet or the cable, nothing happens. I refuse to use it again because I don't know how to use it. It has caused 2 fires already and I am afraid to use it again. But when I put it into a socket, it causes an explosion and shorts everything out. So when I use this tool, the larger one, if I wave it around the cable or the outlet, nothing happens. I have already mapped out the electrical system on paper and I know which ones are which. They are the ones which are connected in the panel. The one on the top is apparently used to tell you if a cable or an outlet is connected to a working circuit - the problem is, I already know which circuits are working. Neither one of them does the same thing as the old red plastic tool. Instead, there are 2 tools available now. I went to Rona, Canadian Tire, Wal-Mart, small local hardware stores, and nobody has these tools anymore. When the second one broke, I went to Home Depot to replace it and learned that they don't sell those anymore. Unfortunately, I had 2 of those, but they broke. This tool was not dangerous, it was basically reliable and it was user-friendly. You could wave it around near an outlet or a cable, and if there was power running through it, or to it, the tool would make a noise. It was red and used those little round batteries. It was a pen-shaped plastic tool about the same size as a large pen. I used to have a tool which I used to check to see if there was power in a circuit or not.
