I use the Sperry Instruments ET64220, compact and easy to use.

Available on Amazon

X2 on the ET64220.  I've got the same tool.  Works good.  Note that it can only be used on non-energized wires.  That means you can't use it to trace a wire that is part of a powered-on circuit.

I got mine at our local Home Depot.
