Stud Finder Wall Scanner - 5-in-1 Stud Detector Tool with Intelligent Microprocessor Chip and HD LCD Display for Wood, AC Wire, Metal Studs, and Joist Pipe

Whether you're hanging pictures, installing new shelves, or preparing for a home addition, knowing where wall studs are located can be incredibly useful. A quality stud finder can mean the difference between a successful DIY project and a disastrous one, making it an essential tool.

The JAXWQ stud finder utilizes UPGRADED SMART SENSORS to detect changes in wall density and precisely locate stud centers. This helps users avoid drilling numerous erroneous holes when mounting TVs, shelves, coat hooks, and other items on drywall.

To use the AC scan mode, first hold the tool in the air and press the ON/OFF button to turn it on, then select the AC or Metal mode. Press the Calibrate Button and wait for the decreasing bars to disappear and the beep to sound, indicating calibration is complete. Next, place the entire device against the wall and slowly slide it across the surface. Mark the location where you get the strongest AC indication, as indicated by the top arrow and steady beep. Reverse direction and mark the spot where the display bars peak - the midpoint between the two marks is the center of the live AC wiring.

For stud scanning, this tool has three modes: StudScan, DeepScan, and Metal Scan. Start with the 0.5in. or 1in. StudScan mode to minimize false positives. After detecting the center of an object, use Metal Scan to determine if it's a wood stud, metal stud, or pipe.

The JAXWQ wall detector can locate metal studs in all scanning modes, as it detects changes in density rather than a specific material. The built-in Wire Warning feature indicates the presence of live, unshielded electrical wiring up to 2 inches deep, enhancing safety.

Calibrate the tool before each scan by holding it against the wall and pressing the calibration button until the reducing bars disappear and a beep sounds. Then, slowly move the stud finder along the wall, re-calibrating if it is accidentally shaken or lifted.

This stud finder makes an excellent, practical gift for homeowners, DIY enthusiasts, and professionals alike. Its accurate and rapid detection of studs, wires, and pipes helps users complete tasks safely and efficiently, while the comprehensive display and multiple scan modes ensure versatility and ease of use, even in low-light conditions.
