    Stud finder recommendations

    My old stud finder has given up the ghost, it was a cheap and cheerful no brand make but did the job I needed it for - finding studs & joists. Has anyone got recommendations for a replacement? Had a play with an expensive Bosch one the kitchen fitter had and found it horrible to use.

    Will a Fuse Finder do this?

    Hi, I'm working up an estimate for a board change for a flat in a small block. Checking for the main incomers in the Dry riser cupboards and of course the labels are 'inconclusive' to say the least! I confess in the past I've just pulled fuses (one was 5 fuses until the right one) but whacking...

    Signal tester

    hi, what do you guys recommend to buy for a signal tester. I've seen the pocket sized ones but not sure they are any good?? I'm not a full time installer but when doing re-wires I get asked to install the aerials, I've been lucky until recent at getting good signal strengths. Hence I'm looking...

    The transmitter in the Professional Fuse Finder Kit (FD600) has an IEC socket with a standard UK 3 pin mains adaptor (EX332), which extends the use to include both 13A sockets, and with the TL83 lead, to light fittings or other points in a circuit where there is no power socket. Allows you to...

    Lidl (stud finder)

    Just a bit off topic, I was wondering if anyone has ventured into Lidl's to take look at the £9.99 stud finder, I got one and it does do what it says on the box, not bad for under a tenner.

    T.v point testing?

    Just wondering whether there is a plug in tool to test the signal of t.v points? Something similar to sky signal finder but to plug into a standard point? Recently been installing a lot of points and the thought of lugging a customers t.v all around a house/block of flats seem ridiculous. Thanks.

    Which Circuit tracer/fuse finder is best?

    Gents for years I have persisted in carrying out periodic inspections without the aid of a fuse finder or circuit tracer but I am starting to think it would be to my advantage if I just went ahead and bought one. I have used the Socket and See version and also the Kewtech range. Just wondering...
