DeWalt Hand-Held Radar Scanner

DeWalt upgrades the traditional stud finder with a hand-held radar scanner to detect and identify wood, metal, live electrical wires, and PVC in a wall. The sensor can read up to 3 inches deep behind drywall, plywood, concrete, and marble. An LCD color screen displays the items detected and includes a tracking bar to show all objects found within 9.8 feet.
