The D-Tect 200 gives me very inconsistent results on drywall (plasterboard). Sometimes it shows live wires and going over it again, they disappear. It's really frustrating. Same thing happens with metal and even wood studs. I even updated it to the latest firmware, but doesn't make any difference. I got it 1.5 years ago and haven't being able to use it at all...
why did you guys not show the Water leaks detection on a wall??? to detect leaking pipes. We need a video t] that showcase how to use it for water leaking in the drywall.
My D-tect 200 is about to be delivered. I decided to go for it since I just bought a house that was built in the 70s and I have no idea how things are routed behind the walls. It'll be interesting to watch a dedicated demonstration of the D-tect 200 C using an actual wall. Great video Thanks
I have a Bosch D-Tect 200 model and it's completely unreliable for detecting live 240V wires in concrete at 3-5 centimeters deep. It gives false positives and false negatives 90% of the time.
same. Having a scenario with two rather close cables i think it has problems with differenciating between the one without current and the one with the magnetic field and electricity flowing. It could basically think, that it is one thick cable... It connects the magnetic field to the wrong metal so to speak.
