Careful when using cheap stud finders! I drilled into a water pipe that I thought was a stud! What a mess that was and took me 2 days to fix. Now I use a stud finder that detects pipes!
Good video I guess but the mounting screw instruction was not correct at all and pre-drilling is to prevent the wood from splitting. The head of the mounting bolt needs to be bigger than the hole or it will pull through, duh? At least use some washers. This is about as bad as the guy running the electrical cord through the wall. Be careful what you watch folks.
@shawnspeed3 I got one that shows me if a stud has AC current running through it, such as a BX line.
