Folks -
I have a couple of Zircon Stud and Metal sensors....the Videoscanner 5.5 and the Metalliscanner 6.0... I Don't want to be drilling into anything live while I'm hanging a cabinet, now...
Anyway, I've had these two units for a couple of years and have used them each no more than a dozen times.... The power switches apparently went out on both units and now after TWO WEEKS of trying to get a response, they say the units are NOT REPAIRABLE and that I should buy NEW Zircon units. Handy for them!
I haven't gotten a response to my reply - asking why I would spend money on an "upgrade" (their word) when the original product failed under light use and they won't (apparently) provide support after the fact.
The two units totaled over $200 and I would expect that something of that level should be repairable.
So, the question - who out there makes GOOD stud sensors and metal/AC detectors?
Piss on 'em - don't need a sensor for that!
