Abstract Method and apparatus for detecting leaks in a rubber glove or the like. The wearer of rubber gloves connects a clip to his ear and places each glove-covered hand individually into electrolyte liqid in all electrically conductive receptacle. A circuit including a buzzer or beeper sounds if there is a leak in the glove. The circuit includes a clip connected to the wearer's ear as well as the beeper, the electrolyte, a battery and the receptacle. An alternative embodiment includes a removable disposable electrically non-conductive receptacle for the electrolyte liquid with the circuit including an electrical conductor cemented to the inside of the receptacle and in the circuit. In an alternative embodiment, an apparatus for detecting a leak in a rubber or other protective glove includes an electrically conductive vessel containing an electrically conductive disposable and replaceable liner containing an electrolyte and includes an electrical circuit having a head post adapted to engage with a portion of the body of a person wearing a glove, the circuit also being connected to the vessel. Upon touching the forehead to the head post, by dipping the gloved hand to the vessel and electrolyte, a signal is actuated upon closure of the electrical circuit between the person and the electrolyte through a leak in the glove to signify existence of the leak.
