The Walabot Difference

See it, don’t hear it! Other stud finders beep to alert you that an object has been found behind your walls without showing you whether the object is a stud to drill into or a pipe or wire to avoid? Now you can be safe with the Walabot DIY Plus. Only Walabot uses cutting-edge radar technology to allow your smartphone to show you actually what is behind your walls.

Walabot DIY Plus Wall Scanner

Walabot DIY Plus is paired with an Android phone (see specifications for details) to produce a visual image of what is inside drywall and lath & plaster up to 4 inches (10 cm) deep. Your Walabot detects metal studs, wood studs, wires, pipes and can even find pests by showing movement behind walls. Walabot can be used by contractors, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and those in need of advanced wall imaging capabilities. The advanced technology is also perfect for ambitious DIYers and those who want real-time visual images of what is behind a wall. It can show users what is in their wall in multiple modes (Image mode and Expert mode).

Image Mode: A visual image of metal and wooden studs, pipes, and wires.

To use image mode, hold the Walabot against the wall, calibrate and scan the wall. Walabot’s Radio Frequency technology will analyze the objects and using artificial intelligence, translate the results into images which are identified as wooden studs, metal studs, pipes, and wires.

Expert Mode: See the raw radar signals from the Walabot sensor

To use expert mode, hold the Walabot against the wall, calibrate and move over the objects seen in Pan and Image mode. Expert mode gives a direct view into the unfiltered Radio Frequency images. This image can show location in more detail, curves in pipes and wires, the intersection between two objects, pest movement in real time and can be used to confirm objects found in Pan and Image mode. You can focus the expert mode by managing the intensity bar to better see the objects.

User questions & answers

Question:	I saw a post on Facebook that this can now be used on a iPhone. Is that not the case
Answer:	I believe 2016 - 2020 Pathfinder are the same. Mine fit perfectly tight with rubber gaskets provided. My suggestion tho when assembling do not snug down immediately put fasteners in loose to align then tighten down had to go back to learn this.
Question:	Will this run on a LGV
Answer:	No, it is 25 inches. However, this is a great suitcase I have used it on a plane, cruise and car. Love that it is expandable.
Question:	Will it work on Samsung Galaxy Note
Answer:	There is NO combination lock built into this suitcase. The two zippers that open it have eyelets that meet so you can put a lock on the zippers. I use a combination lock that I bought separately. There are instructions with all combination locks showing how you set your preferred 3 numbers, but again, a combination lock isn’t included with this suitcase.
Question:	does the "complete kit" (walabot & accessory kit) include protective film(s), like the $40 separate kit
Answer:	No, it's too big to be carried on and must be checked. I bought it with a companion tote that can be carried on.

Scanning for wood studs

• Maximum detection depth: Exact mode:20mm; Deep mode:38mm.
• Wood detection mode will detect objects in gypsum drywall, plywood sheathing, bare wood flooring, coated wooden wall. Wood detection mode will not detect objects in concrete, mortar, block, brick work, plaster, carpeting, foil-faced materials, metallic surfaces, ceramic tile, glass, or any other dense material.

Scanning for metal objects

• Maximum detection depth: Ferrous metals: 100mm; Non-ferrous metals (Copper): 80mm.
• When the metal is detected, the screen will show the depth value synchronously, but if the signal is weak, or the tool cannot distinguish that the metal object is magnetic or non-magnetic, the depth value will not be displayed. The depth value is the distance from the center of the sensor to the scanned object. At the position of minimum depth value, the metal object is located near the center of the sensor.

Scanning for wires

• Maximum detection depth: 50mm (220V@50Hz / 110V @ 60 Hz).
• The signal strength of a “live” wire depends on the position of the cable. Therefore, apply further measurements in close proximity or use other information sources to check if a “live” wire exists.

How to find the stud

• Hold the tool straight up and down, position it onto the surface to be scanned, and do not rotate the tool.
• Press the mode button briefly to enter the wood stud detection mode, the symbol will flash on the screen. Do not move until the symbol stop flashing and the green light is on, automatic calibration of the tool is completed.

Step 2

• Move the tool uniformly and slowly over the surface without lifting it off or changing the applied pressure. During the scan , the tool must cling the wall, otherwise it will automatically calibrate again. Please wait for the symbol stop flashing and the green light to light up again and then move the tool.

Step 3

• When the tool comes close to a stud, the scale m and the percentage n will increase, the distance indicator l will appear. As the tool gets closer to the stud, the yellow indicator will light. As it detected the center of the stud, the red light is on.

Step 4

• To make the detection results more reliable, when the center is marked, please slide the tool across the wall again to check if the center is near the location of the highest percentage.

Product description

There are two tips to ensure the wall scanner never trick you again

1. Go slowly: To be effective, stud finders need to be properly calibrated. First, place yours on the wall and turn it on — you can usually do this by holding in a button. Let the stud finder read the density of the material (this will only take a second or two and you will hear the sound of " beep"), then slowly move it from side to side. Go back and forth over the wall a few times, starting from a different spot with each pass. Mark each stud you discover with a pencil. We recommend finding three and using a tape measure to make sure they are the same distance apart. This will help you avoid false positives.

2. Always double-check: After you have marked your studs and where you want to drill your holes, you should use something to poke into the wall to ensure you actually marked a stud. We would recommend doing this by hand, rather than using a power tool, as you will have a better feel for what’s inside the wall. You can also tap a small nail into the wall; get past the drywall without the nail “falling in” and you’ve found a stud. The last thing you should do before drilling is poke a little hole to the left and right of where you want to drill and make sure you are still on the stud. This will ensure you are centered on a stud, and not just clipping its side (and possibly hitting electrical wiring).
