They're only $4.95 at Home Depot here. Finally, we have something here in San Diego that's cheaper than the rest of the country. Yahoooooooooooo!

I use the $4.95 tester for 10 of my 12 inspection types. I use a SureTest $249 tester for my PREMIUM and TECH inspections.

I asked this same question a few months ago...and got pretty much the same answer.....get a Sure Test meter.
It seems that someone with a Sure test or equivalent.....may have run into this concern with their basic tester....then pulled out the sure test to see what it read. ? or not?
Any how it would be interesting to know. Especially since when you disconnected the washing machine, then all three lights were on.

I don't think the fancy sure test would have told you what this is either,
but the sure test is magical, it will make cash disappear from your wallet.
