Default Re: Neon Tester Screwdrivers

One quirk of my voltpen is the LED will fail to light if the live wire in a 2 or 3 core cable is obscured behind the neutral. It's important to move it along the cable in question, whereupon it flashes on and off in sequence with the twist of the conductors. Nowhere in the instructions is this mentioned.
