Overview
A radar sensor connected to an Android phone by USB on-the-go cable reads what is behind the wall and shows it on the phone screen. The sensor offers an Images mode and an Expert mode, and it detects studs, pipes and wiring along with movement.
Seeing a picture of what is in the wall, instead of a single beep at a stud edge, is what Walabot offers. Everything depends on your phone: an older Android version, a phone without USB on-the-go or any Apple device leaves the sensor unusable.
Who it's for
Homeowners planning to drill, mount or cut into drywall, concrete or plaster get a view of studs, pipes and wiring before the first hole. People who use Apple devices or tablets cannot run it at all.
Pros and cons
- Shows images, not just a beep
- Detects wood and metal studs
- Finds PVC and metal pipes
- Spots cables and wires inside walls
- Android phones only
- Needs phone support for USB on-the-go
- Short warranty term
Performance notes
Radar signals pass into the wall and reflect back from studs, pipes and wires, and the phone turns those echoes into an image. Walabot names drywall, concrete and lath and plaster as the surfaces it scans well. Scan depth is fixed by the sensor, so anything buried deeper than its range will not appear.
