I just bought one of those electronic studfinders, and it was not a cheap model either. The thing is useless. I installed the batteries as required and turned it on. The "on" light lit up. Then I held it between my legs and nothing happened. (It's supposed to beep and several led lights are supposed to light up when a stud is located). I decided that maybe I needed to be in more of a studly mood, so I crawled in bed with my woman and got a really hard erection. Then I took the studfinder and held it tightly against my dick, Still no beeps or lights. This thing is useless. I paid good money for a piece of junk. Monday it goes back to the store.

In your case, my guess is it is working fine! Greg
Real studs are at least 1 1/2". You did not measure up.

Apparently you weren't wearing an iron condom.
Would "Woody" not be woody or would he?
If you wanted it to light up between your legs you should have bought a 'dud' finder, not a stud finder.
You need to stick it really far up your ass to get a good reading. Don't use lubrication as it will void the warranty.
