Luckily I'd never take the pi$$. 

 

It really is a "manual" stud finder. Magnet picks up on steel screws / nail heads. When it tilts perpendicular you're bang on the nail. Then pencil the two vees and in the middle is theoretically the centre of the stud. Assumes of course they originally banged the nails in on the centre line...

 

 

Stanley do something very similar.

So !

As I’m an electrician ( ?? ) decided to buy a nice Makita set of electrical tools .

But I can’t figure out what this blue thing is - thought it was some kind of pendulum level ; but I don’t think so ...

Isn’t that a plonker-meter which has gone to 100%?
