Smart Magnetic Detector "Original" - No Batteries, No Calibration, 3x More Reliable, Perfect for Slats and Plaster, Metal Nails - Visual Indicator

For years I have shied away from stud work, mostly because it was just too tricky to locate them accurately. I had previously bought an electronic detector which was okay(ish) for electrical cables but utterly useless for studs. Then I needed to install a 100" projector screen for a home cinema project, and I knew I couldn't just screw it into plasterboard. After some research, I saw this advertised on You Tube, thought it was worth a try. To my amazement, I was able to locate all the studs behind the sloping ceiling plasterboard and mark them within a few minutes from opening the plastic packing. The little toggle moves and clicks, clearly indicating the nails or screws in the plasterboard and, therefore, the precise location of studwork. The screen is now mounted securely on battens screwed across six roof studs. Small, simple and damned effective. Easily worth the money.

We bought an electric stud finder to help find the studs in our lath and plaster walls. It was very difficult to understand the readings. We thought we would give this a shot for the price, and it worked amazingly well. It found the fixings on the studs straight away. We were amazed. Would definitely recommend this product for lath and plaster walls!!

A very handy little tool that does the job

Works well, but very expensive for what it is!

Brilliant gadget found timber straight away picked it up

Work's ok but not as good as the stud buddy.

Friend recommended this but I was doubtful 🤨 It really does work so yes worth the addition to my tool bag!

bought this because the electronic stud finder failed but this didn’t!

Este utensilio va genial para detectar los perfiles lo recomiendo 100%

Works as described

Bonjour, J'ai bien reçu le colis avec retard et une couleur bleue, alors que j'avais commandé rouge. Par contre, le produit marche très bien, c'est un très bon produit...

A simple and effective way to locate wall studs. This detector is magnetic and works by reacting to nails or drywall screws. It works when the electronic detectors don't. And, it doesn't need batteries.

Fantastic tool. I had no idea how effective these were. My expensive stud detector is mediocre to poor for most purposes. The best thing it does is detect electricity. This simple magnetic tool pops up firmly over every dry wall screw. Find each screw and easily map out where the studs are. Worth every penny. Saves time and frustration.
