Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker BDL152S Bull's Eye Wood, Metal and Live Wire Stud Sensor

Customer Review: Ineffective stud finder
Summary: 1 Stars

This stud finder is completely useless. I tried finding stud on a drywall. According to it, the stud edges are about 6 inches apart. In fact they are only 1.5 inch apart. The readings varied each time. Luckily I had access to a wall where I could see the studs from one side. I could verify that readings were totally off. I hope that I got a defective unit and it is not a problem with every unit.

Description of Black & Decker BDL152S Bull's Eye Wood, Metal and Live Wire Stud Sensor

Black & Decker introduces a Stud Sensor line with four stud finders that take the guesswork out of locating wood or metal studs and wires to hang pictures, install closet shelving, run chair railing, and more. Whether you are a pro, do-it-yourselfer or decorator, one of the four Stud Sensors will help you get the job done faster and easier. The four Stud Sensors are: BDL150S Deep Stud Finder detects wood studs; the BDL151S Deep Stud Finder detects woods studs in thicker walls; the BDL152S Stud & Metal Finder detects wood and metal studs with a continuous AC warning that alerts you to hot or live electrical wires; and the BDL153S Stud & Metal & Wire Finder detects studs, metal and wire with a separate switch for wire. The Stud Sensors detect studs, metal, and wire through walls by sensing the differences in wall density between studs and the hollow spaces in your walls. The Stud Sensors have both audible and visual indicators that show when the edge of a stud is located. It is always best to hang shelves, photographs, artwork, and other items securely into the studs in your walls. If these items are secured only in the drywall, nails and anchors can come loose under their own weight over time. With the diameter of a stud being less than 1 inch thick and studs being placed either every 16 inches or 24 inches, depending on the construction of your home, it isn't always easy to guesstimate a stud's location. Without a stud sensor you can only guess where studs may be hidden under your walls. This usually results in driving a nail or anchor between the studs in the empty spaces in your walls, leaving holes.Sensor with LED indicators for accurate stud, metal and wire locatingCompact design is easy to hold and useIncludes a 9-volt batteryIncludes a 9-volt alkaline battery2-year warranty
