Description: Tired of Stud Finders That Are Overpriced and Underachieve? The ChipToolz DOT Plus was made for you. It combines the best of both magnetic and electronic stud finders, while eliminating their weaknesses. This may seem like too much text for just a magnetic stud finder explanation, but we promise it's well worth your time. Magnetic stud finders are 100% accurate (there will always be metal fasteners that attach the wall material to the studs), but they struggled with locating the fasteners in lathe and plaster walls as the screws were too deep to feel the magnetic pull. Electronic stud finders are easier to use (scan and listen for the beep), but they also come with a bunch of issues like false positives, calibration errors, need batteries, and they're usually more expensive. With the ChipToolz DOT Plus, you have the 100% accuracy of a magnetic stud finder, that also works on lathe and plaster walls. Because of it's loose magnet design, the user can see, hear, and feel the magnet move when scanning over fasteners buried deep into the surface of the wall. These screws were previously unfindable because with traditional magnetic stud finders, the user has to feel the magnetic pull to locate the fastener/stud. The magnetic pull was imperceptible to the user, so the fasteners couldn't be found. That is not the case with the DOT Plus. A truly high quality rare earth magnet and patented design allow it to locate screws buried up to 1" into the wall. As for electronic devices, the ChipToolz DOT Plus also has the same easy instructions - just scan and listen for the magnet to snap - without all of the headaches. Let's go through them. 1. Anyone that's used electronic models has experienced a false positive. The device beeps and then they find out there isn't a stud there, usually after making a hole in the wall. Because the DOT Plus is locating the metal fasteners in the studs, it doesn't have this issue. 2. Electronic models also require calibration before use. This can sometimes take awhile to complete, depending on the model you have, and it's another step to using it. The DOT Plus is ready to go as soon as you grab it. 3. All electronic devices require batteries to operate. If you're like most homeowners, you're using your stud finder a couple of times a year, maybe even once. There's a good chance that the batteries will need to be replaced for every use if left in the device while in storage. Not to mention, if the batteries corrode after a long non-use, you may have to replace the stud finder itself. No batteries needed for the DOT Plus. Grab and go. 4. Electronic models are expensive! Most start at around 20 dollars and can get up to 50+... for a stud finder! There's no need for this, as there isn't an electronic model that doesn't come with the problems outlined above. The DOT Plus does the job better for a fraction of the cost. If you want a modestly priced stud finder that won't give you headaches, will always work, and most importantly efficiently locate the stud(s) - the ChipToolz DOT Plus is all you'll ever need.
