10. Circuit Breaker Finder: No More Guesswork

Ever had to flip breakers one by one, hoping you'd find the right one? A circuit breaker finder takes out the guesswork. It helps you quickly identify which breaker controls the circuit you're working on, so you can safely turn it off before getting started.
