The CPSC and Klein Tools have recalled Klein Tools Non-Contact Voltage Tester Model NCVT-1.  The on-off button is defective, and the tester may not warn the user of a live circuit leading to an electric shock and its consequences.  About 1,690,000 were sold in the US and about 67,800 were sold in Canada at Home Depot stores and industrial distributors, electrical wholesalers, and hardware retailers.  Immediately stop using these testers and contact Klein Tools at 1-800-527-3099 or via email at [email protected] to obtain instructions regarding ho to  receive a free replacement tool.
