AWTOOLS 1124900 Multi-Function Wall Scanner – Detects Wood, Metal and Live AC Wires up to 100 mm Deep

Most basic stud finders stop at wooden beams, but the AWTOOLS 1124900 goes further: it combines three detection modes in one compact device, finding wooden studs, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, and live AC wiring behind walls, floors and ceilings. Electricians, carpenters, plumbers and DIY renovators can drill or cut safely without hitting hidden pipes, cables or reinforcement bars.

Highlights

• Three detection modes: wood, metal (magnetic and non-magnetic) and AC live wire
• Maximum detection depth: 38 mm for wood, 80 mm for non-magnetic metal, 100 mm for magnetic metal, 50 mm for live AC wire
• Clear LCD display with backlight and audible buzzer for easy reading in dark or noisy environments
• Automatic calibration for quick, reliable scanning without manual adjustments
• Automatic shutdown after approximately 5 minutes to save battery life
• Low battery indicator and visual LED alert for confident operation
• Ergonomic, lightweight design for comfortable one-hand use

In daily use

The AWTOOLS 1124900 is ready to use straight out of the box – just insert a 9V battery (6F22), place the scanner flat against the surface and press the scan button. The automatic calibration ensures accurate results on drywall, plaster, wood and concrete. The backlit LCD shows the detected material type and signal strength, while the audible tone increases as you approach the target. When you locate a wooden stud behind plasterboard, the device clearly indicates its centre, allowing you to mark it precisely.
