Might it also be drywall screws?

Also try measuring between the 2 studs your finding, should be 16 inches. If it’s not, your most likely finding something other than studs. If they are 16, read that first comment again.

Somewhat related, but can someone explain the difference between the two?

I've found a picture of a BMS someone took appart.

The left one is from a Chinese copy but the right one is the original LG one. Looks like both cells would connect to it. Comments say that the original BMS has a temperature sensor and charging control and that's why some Chinese copies won't get recognized by the Surface.

I think I'm getting somewhere with my idea.

Try asking people who go to arr-Biology to go to arr-WhatsThisBug for their identification questions. It's a losing battle because people are idiots.

The only time this fails me is liquid propane (LP) fittings. Those are bassackward.

Also: Clock to lock. Unclock to unlock.

I have never, ever, ever wanted to spend real world money on stupid internet clout awards to give away until this very day.

I get it now ready. I get it now.

A jack of all trades is a master of none-
But certainly better than a master of one.

*Not true of tools, only of people.

If it's done properly, I don't see why not. The only thing that might get in the way will be if there's an individual bms system in each cell that handshakes with the "central" system. I haven't actually cut into batteries in a while, generally only replace them

Stud finders don't actually find studs. They find changes in reflected (inaudible) sound waves. So, there is something there that is more dense than the sheetrock (or whatever) you have over it. Could be pipes (probably not unless you're drilling into a "wet" wall, usually reserved for behind toilets/showers/tubs), could be you've got metal or metallic studs (some construction, especially high-volume housing), could be wires just in the exact place you're scanning. Try scanning above and below by about a foot. If you're still getting a metal return, you might want to consider relocating your project.

Could be wiring as well I know if I go into a hardware store all the stud finders start ringing!!!! Lmao Anyways!!!! It is probably wires, you could try moving it higher and see what happens or try a different wall.

Oh good, that's fine then.

Thanks pal, finally someone with some common sense

Make sure you're allowed any weight in the trusses at all. Are they attic trusses with a real floor system below?

It's possible you could find the drawings with your local building department if you can't find a copy.

oh no, have I angered the locksmith union?

It is stickied there and it's in their description on the top bar. They're just being thorough.

With paint. Jeez.

I asked a question there 5 years ago and my post was never approved.

I just wanted to know if you could put a medeco cylinder in a baldwin lock. BTW the answer is yes.

Hey, I mean that's cool, but you're relying on the memories of the small number of people who read this post. I just don't think this is a very effective way of getting the message to the people that actually need to hear it. Maybe ... stickied comments here and on the original sub? I guess?

Tell my kids this all the time.
