Why consider this model?

  • A plausible fit for dry interior drywall when a visible full-width LED pattern plus an on-center marker is preferred, and when the maker-stated 1.5-inch wall-thickness comparison ceiling is sufficient.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • The reviewed sources do not document a separate live-wire warning, a material-specific depth split, or a supported lath/plaster, tile, exterior or metal-mesh plan. The maximum wall-thickness statement is not a reading guarantee.
