STUD FINDER WALL SCANNER
Whether you are hanging pictures, putting up a new set of shelves or getting ready to start an addition, knowing where the studs are in a wall can be extremely handy! And A good stud finder can be the difference between a successful DIY home project and disaster. That is why a stud finder is important.
JAXWQ stud finder uses UPGRADED SMART SENSORS which can sense the change in density in the space behind the wall and locates the stud center with GREAT ACCURACY. You will not worry to drill many error holes on the wall while putting up a TV bracket, shelf unit, or even just a set of coat hooks on drywall.
How to use AC mode
Note: If in AC scan mode/Metal scan mode, you need to put the tool in the air to calibrate it.
Step 1: Put the tool in the air and press the ON/OFF button to turn on, then choose AC mode or Metal mode.
Step 2: Press Calibrate Button to start calibration, the decreasing bars will disappear the buzzer will beep one time and the calibration is completed. Then releases the scan button.
Step 3: Place the whole device against the wall, slowly slide the tool across the surface. Mark the location where you get the highest AC indication (the most Middle bars on the screen). (Figure A): If it is a strong target, the top indicated arrow will show, and a steady beep will sound. Continue in the same direction until display bars reduce. Reverse direction and mark the spot where the display bars peak from the reversed direction. The midpoint of the two marks is the location of the center of the live AC wiring. If the unit indicates live electricity over a large area, you can reduce the sensitivity of the tool to refine the scanning area and more accurately locate the live AC wiring by following steps 4 and 5 below.
Step 4: (Figure B) To further pinpoint the location of the live AC wiring, scan the area again. Release the Scan button and then turn the unit back on, this time starting on the wall over one of the previous marks. This will reset the tool to lower sensitivity and narrow the scan area.
Step 5: (Figure C) Scan in both directions as in Step 3. The area indicated should become smaller so you can more precisely identify the location of live AC wires.
For the Frames of Figure A B C, please kindly check the instruction in the package.
Stud Scan Detection
This stud locator has 3 stud scan modes. Deep Scan Mode scans through 2 layers of drywall up to 1.5 in. (38 mm) deep. DeepScan Mode is a higher sensitivity scanning mode that should be used when there are extra layers of wallboard or paneling. To minimize false positives and/or finding other objects further behind the wall that may not be a stud, always start your scan in the 0.5in. or 1 in. StudScan Mode first.
After you detect the center of an object, Please Use Metal Scan to determine if the reading in Stud scan mode was a wood stud, metal stud, or pipe.
Metal Scan Detection
JAXWQ wall detector can locate metal studs in StudScan mode, DeepScan mode, and Metal Scan Modes. Since JAXWQ stud finders are looking for a change in density behind drywall, not a particular material, in StudScan and DeepScan Modes the detector will react to metal studs the same as it would for wooden studs.
Wire Warning Detection
Wire Warning detection indicates the presence of live, unshielded electrical wiring up to 2 inches (51 mm) deep. For Safety, in all modes, this wall scanner always detects and indicates the Live AC Wire.
Note: WireWarning Detection works in both StudScan / DeepScan / MetalScan Modes. The WireWarning Detection Icon will flash when live, unshielded wires are detected.
Step 1: Calibrate the tool before every scan
Place the whole device against the wall, then press and hold the calibration button( on the side of the tool) to calibrate this tool. Wait for the reducing bars to disappear and beep to confirm calibration has been completed.
Note: In stud/deep mode, put it on the wall where you want to detect to calibrate it; In AC/Metal mode, put it in the air to calibrate it.
Step 2: Scan the wall
After finishing calibration, please release the calibration button. Then move the stud finder along the wall slowly, if you shake or lift the scanner accidentally, the device needs to be re-calibrated.
Step 3: Find the location of the stud
When the signal bar is full and the beep alarm is loudest, it means you have found the center of an object. Mark it with your pencil.
Then choose the Metal Scan mode to test whether it is a metal. After you confirm that it is not a metal, it means that you found the center of a stud. (More details refer to the above description of "Metal Scan Detection")Then you can drill it to hang the thing.

I used this tool red laser line level for my landscape remodel, and it worked perfectly! It made leveling, grading, and aligning structures so much easier. The laser was in bright in sunlight, and with the mount I was able to cover large areas effortlessly. It saved me time and prevented mistakes—a must-have for any outdoor project!

I recently moved into a new house with my family, and let me tell you, this stud finder was a game changer for all the projects we had lined up! From mounting a massive 75" TV on the wall to setting up a complex shelving system in the garage and dozens of floating shelves for family photos, this tool has been my trusty sidekick.The ease of use is something I can't stress enough. Even if you're not a DIY pro, this stud finder makes you feel like one. The accuracy in finding the true center of a stud was spot on every single time, which is critical when you're hanging heavy items like a large TV. The multiple drywall depth settings were a lifesaver, especially in different parts of the house where wall thickness varied. I'll admit that I've dropped it onto multiple floor types when forgetting it was perched on top of my ladder, including well over 7 feet onto rock hard concrete in the garage. Nothing has phased this stud finder and it continues to provide accurate x-ray-level readings to this day.But here’s the kicker – it's an incredible all-in-one product for the price! It's not just a stud finder; it's like having a little construction assistant in your tool belt. The one feature that absolutely blew me away – and this might sound dramatic – was how it saved me from potential electric shock. While installing the TV, this little gem detected a 'hot' monitor cable hidden in the wall, left by the previous homeowners. They had covered up the cable concealer and gang box, making it invisible to the naked eye. If it weren't for this stud finder, I might have had a shocking surprise...In summary, if you're setting up a new home or tackling any project that involves drilling into walls, you need this stud finder. It's not just a tool, it's peace of mind that you're drilling in the right spot – and not into live wires! Highly recommend for its accuracy, ease of use, and for keeping me safe and shock-free!

I've had this unit for about 8 months and have used it several times. It's easy to use and simple to figure out. It's easy to switch to different materials. The power line detector has given several false readings but it has never not detected power just detected power when none is present. It has never failed to find a stud which is the main purpose. I wouldn't use this for a business but for around the house or garage, it seems to work great. I got this people I didn't want the kids using my good detector and compared to it, you can tell it's a cheaper unit, but it has worked every time I needed it.

Arrived early, well-packaged. Instructions clear and easy to follow. Tried it out - helps to get it calibrated first (just as the instructions say!). Nice indication when it's found the center of the stud. Recommend this one highly!

This tool has been essential to finding proper studs, especially with the proper adjustments I was able to find studs behindlath and plaster walls.

I recently purchased the Stud Finder Wall Scanner - 5 in 1 Stud Detector, and overall, I found it to be relatively user-friendly. The device's design and arrow functionality on the LCD screen were definitely helpful, especially compared to non-LCD screen stud finders. However, I did encounter a few instances where I had to go over the wall multiple times to confirm the presence of a stud. I did encounter some occasions where I needed additional passes over the area to ensure accuracy. While it's a minor inconvenience, it would have been more convenient if the device provided more reliable and consistent results with a single pass. Overall, the Stud Finder Wall Scanner is a decent tool, especially with the arrow functionality and LCD screen, but there is still room for improvement in terms of efficiency and accuracy.

great product, seems pretty accurate. I tested a few spots where I knew there would be electricity and AC and it quickly picked up on both. Also did not have a problem finding studs, I'm very happy with the product!

Product arrived quickly and with battery included. Easy to set up and could work out how to use without even reading instruction booklet. Tested on 1/2" and 1" studs and found every time. Tested on electrical wiring and found no problem - if anything a little too sensitive and could detect wiring from 6" away. Tested on metal joists and metal pipe and found no problem. No function for plastic pipes.Metal joists and studs, perfect and can really line up where they are. Wiring gives an approximate of where they are.At this price i really can't fault it.
