It looks great, but it's not really a tool because it does nothing. To make a long story short, I've spent a good 6 hours with my brand-new Zircon and haven't found a single stud. We're talking standard sheet rock in a 1960's apartment building. The worst part is the live wire ac detector is so bad you can only laugh. I have one entire 12'X 8' wall this unit says has hot wires behind every square inch. Since the wall doesn't lead to a switch or outlet, and as an electrician I know for a fact these walls don't contain a tightly woven mesh of had conductors, it's got one or two conductors tops. I then took the unit and placed it on and around various ac outlets, switches, even directly on top of a fluorescent and got no "hot wire" warning. This unit definitely can kill you which is probably why it has no UL rating. This is my third electronic stud finder. They're all worthless. Drill test holes, or open the wall up. Find two studs in a row and you'll know where all the studs on a particular wall are. Zircon: shame on you!
Zircon 61902 works great on sheetrock walls,but does not very good on plaster/lath walls.
