Stud Finder Wall Scanner - Upgrade 5 in 1 Stud Sensor Wall Detector Wood Beam Drywall Joist Pipe Live AC Wire Metal Studs Locator Best Electronic Wall Detector Edge Center Finding with LCD Display

The plaster in my old house is falling off - Drywall is a common material for interior surfaces. Although I invested in several stud finders, I have only had marginal success. Having found the Zircon OneStep and Franklin Sensor to be so unreliable, I decided to investigate what else was available. There were only ten reviews for the Merece (all five stars), so I was a little skeptical, especially since other stud finders had numerous reviews. In any event, I took a chance, and I am pleased It was possible for me to adjust the sensor to the thickness of my plastered walls with the multiple thickness settings. tool accurately found each stud several times at different heights, allowing me to be confident about its accuracy. In contrast, other stud finders did not perform as well as the one selected.

In fact, after reading everywhere's reviews, even the higher-priced supposedly high-end brand did not live up to the hype. Because of the features of this (finding metal wires and electric wires) as well as the pleasant display and ease of use, I bought it. I have had pretty good results with this. As noted in another review on this product or another brand, I think one of the most important points to note is the following Even so, good advice is good advice -- If you put the device against the wall and hit the side button to calibrate, you need to make sure you do not calibrate on a stud. It is my hope that this My technique is to find a place where I'm pretty sure there's no stud, calibrate there, and then move it along the area I want to nail or screw to locate There is also a problem with accuracy, as it's not up to millimeters. A while back, I was looking for a stud, thinking I had found one in the middle. In the end, I drilled through the drywall and found a stud beyond the edge. The problem turned out to be that I was moving to the left too much. There is little difference in the technologies behind these brands, and none of them place an emphasis on "exactitude. " The system is not doing X You can see through rays of light.

In a nutshell, As you can see by the uploaded videos/pictures, this is a simple to use program. This stud finder didn't cause me any of the usual problems I have encountered with other devices. It is also a plus that depth modes are available.

It's been 15 years since I've dealt with an old Stanley stud finder for old houses with plaster and lath walls, even drywall on top of plaster and lath walls. With anything heavier, the Stanley is almost useless -- it works okay with 1/2" drywall, but not much else. I was very impressed with the Merece on 1/2" drywall. It was Although there is still some guesswork involved with plaster and lath, it still spots the studs within 1/2" of the surface. When moving slowly through walls that are heavier, take a number of Identify each pass by marking it on the wall Taking the mean of multiple readings is a bit more accurate than taking wiring and pipe I would recommend popping this out before any wall penetration and examining for those, even if you are almost certain there are no wiring or plumbing embedded in the.

I am finally able to use a I like the large and bright display, and the visuals make understanding what I'm looking at effortless. To calibrate it, all you need to do is push the two buttons on the side once you know how deep you want to go (I use a depth of 1"). Once the two dotted icons disappear, you're calibrated and can let go of the buttons (which is much better than other systems I've been using! Using the display, it is easy to determine whether your ball has touched the edge or the center of the stud. There are then a few marks and you're done! Here we go! My little device has allowed me to build all kinds of shelves, columns, and load bearing items in the short time I have owned it. I've found it to be so much easier to use than the other three devices I think that it does exactly what a stud finder should do accurate, light, and easy to use. This is a great deal for me!.

Despite the clear and sharp display screen, you do not have to worry about glare. Everything went together well in the packaging and that the included battery works right out of the box. The device has all of the essential features to find metal, AC wires, and of course wood studs. It is simple and easy to use, as it has just one button for scanning and one button to change the scanner It was no problem to find my studs behind 1/2" of gypboard. A common problem with stud finders is that their finish on the gypboard is not smooth like those of most advertised devices so they may have problems finding studs sometimes. In this case, the device was easily able to locate the center of the stud. So far, I haven't taken advantage of the metal or AC wire finding features. This was a great purchase in the end.

I am not a carpenter or handyman, but I still like to be able to place a nail or screw in a wall and know it will hold. Besides so I can mount a 65" TV on the living room wall for extra shelf space and a better look, I also got it so I can mount additional shelf space. My husband and I tested it as soon as it arrived on a paneled wall in our basement, so we know for sure where the studs are. The directions in the box must be followed! Assuming that more negative reviews are the result of user error rather than product malfunction, I used it to find studs through panels instead of drywall in my bedroom and had no issues with it. As soon as I switched to the 1" mode and followed the directions, I located a stud exactly where I knew from years ago was correct for that nail where a painting was hanging above. The tool looks amazing, and I'm eager to use it to mount the TV. It's been a while since I used the electricity finder. Overall, I think I will be able to get a lot of use out of this instead of guessing where to nail or any other good reason to use it. This tool was a nice price and since I wasn't a professional that needed the most expensive tool out there this was fine for me. Make sure you remove the battery, as stated in the directions, when you aren't using it. Over time, the battery may erode and cause issues. And in reality, unless you are a contractor, you will only need the device once in a while.
