    Thank you for this video! 🙏🏽 I'm doing home improvement and wanted to make sure I don't accidentally die from an electrical wire while drilling. 😂 Your video is so helpful!
    Also, you have such a lovely voice, tone, and inflection. You should make a UA-cam channel for videos of you reading children's stories. Kids would find your voice very comforting.

    I just used this model yesterday. Stud finder told me I was at center, drilled the pilot hole and absolutely no stud. Calibrated again and tried a different area amd same result.
    Switched over to electricity detection and the thing was sounding off immediately after calibration. Had it aimed at the center of the garage with absolutely nothing in front of it. Maybe I got a defective one?

    • @Boopolo
      @Boopolo  4 місяці тому +1

      Probably need to play around with it a bit first. 1/2", 3/4" , 1" as well as re-calibrating like in the video

      I am not sure what you mean. Try to calibrate by pointing at open space and clicking.

    How accurate is this? I used mine on a brick wall that I know has no electric cables in, yet the unit displayed that the entire wall is live electric from floor to ceiling 8*15ft . Any suggestions?

    • @Boopolo
      @Boopolo  10 місяців тому

      It is a stud finder, with the capability of detecting electrical current in a studded partition. However, if you are getting a false positive on electricity within a brick wall, you should calibrate as shown in the video. Regardless, this is a stud finder, and should not be relied on to check for electrical cables embedded in a solid wall

      I have a Klein Tools voltage tester, and it does not detect current through a cement wall, at either of the two settings provided. Generally, the wiring should be vertical from the ceiling to the outlet with only close proximity outlet to outlet connections. If you take the faceplate off the outlets, you should see the bottom of the vertical conduit(s)

    It is impossible for this device to detect alternating current if it is inside the concrete cement. The device only detects behind weak barriers such as wood and white gypsum. As for cement, concrete and stone, it cannot detect any of the above.

    • @Boopolo
      @Boopolo  11 місяців тому +3

      It is a stud finder with an additional ability to detect electric current in a studded partition. For concrete walls, even my Klein voltage detector finds is hard through cement wall.

      There are five setting. Pick the correct one. In a part you know there is no stud, press the calibration button on the side. Then release the calibration button, and slide it slowly towards a stud.

    Does calibrate mean, turn it off and start again on different area?

    • @Boopolo
      @Boopolo  2 місяці тому

      I am not sure which calibration you are referring to. For studs just press the calibration on a known point where there is no stud and wait for beep. For electric, please watch again 3:39. We point towards space and calibrate
