But it has two big limitations: it can't detect hot wires, and it can't distinguish between metal pipes and studs.
So I use this as my primary stud finder, but verify its findings with another stud finder to look for hot wires and pipes before doing anything.

These are great btw. I know the differences because I lost one, bought the 13 sensor version to replace it, then of course found the original.
I have not seen this one in yellow anywhere. I feel like the last three versions are very similar in the same shade of green.
As for the inexpensive and popular yellow magnetic stud finder, I appreciate the powerful magnet, but it just doesn't give me a lot of assurance as much as these do.

Because as far as I know, it only works on metal studs and screws/nails.
Walmart's Hart has knock-offs of those for $19 and $28:

I'm wondering whether Hart is truly an independent licensor of the patents or if they're simply a subsidiary set up to sell at a competitive price point below the retail and warehouse club options typical for Franklin.
Good luck!

Does not work at all with double sheetrock walls (new build interior garage door wall for me).
Used this on normal 5/8 walls to hang pegboard, totally fine.
