Update: I was using a voltage tester wrong for a solid year

I was checking a keypad in a Denver condo and kept getting a weird reading, so I called my buddy over who just stared at my tester and said, 'Dude, you've got the leads backwards.' How many other basic tools have I been using like a total goof? Anyone else have a facepalm moment with a simple piece of gear?

My GPS tried sending me down a one-way street for months before I noticed.

Wow, that's wild @nina_jenkins. It makes you wonder if the map data is wrong or if the city changed the street signs and never told the app companies. I bet there are a bunch of other spots in town with the same kind of outdated info.
