Macguiver or Darwin Award winner?

DH took the day off and we are full steam ahead in kitchen trim. (I'm posting this during our lunch break.)
I needed to install an under counter outlet, but the plumbers stole my wire tester yesterday. I was 99% sure they weren't hot, but I never risk it.
Check out my solution. Ingenious or too dangerous?

I wouldn't say ingenious but it is smart!!

No. It was off like I suspected. I'm annoyed the plumbers stole my tester. I'm sure it was on accident though.
Honestly, when I think about this, it's no more dangerous than using a tester. Both methods are just touching the ends of the wire to something.

I'd go buy a new tester, but hopefully this will be the last outlet I install ever!
