Will this detect trusses from the roof through comp shingles and OSB?

it will but you have to make the wheels in constant contact with surface and run it along with certain pressure and same speed left to right. surface ideally should be flat in order to get accurate reading.shingles are on toip of each other,so this will give you wrong reading.

It detects the screw or nail heads that are in the studs, so yes it should be able to detect the studs through wood paneling.

Yes it will. I purchased it primarily to install gutter guards so that the latter would not lean against the gutters while installing the guards and it was just the ticket for the job. It keeps the latter from slipping from side to side since it grips the roofing material.

I use on my commercial building with a metal roof. You might need a full edge protector so it doesn't scrape the finish on your roof

I have several hundred feet installed. I do NOT think it would be possible to rake any snow near the gutter portion of the roof; such as within about 2 feet from the gutters up in my case. It would catch the cable and pull it loose. (And it would be a pain to put it back at that time, cuz the shingles are cold/brittle.) I say no.

I wouldn't think it would work very easily - you have to lift up the shingles to slip the top edge of the screens underneath. The odds of damaging the shingles or disturbing the nails on the bottom row of shingles is too great. I have never tried it - but after a few installs of this product, I wouldn't.

I found it to work on shingle as well as lap. Great for someone working alone. You may check to see if they make a different model for larger siding, but this worked fantastic four me.

Yes. Measure three times. Leave extra fabric. Check roof with a pin for cross bars. Use plenty of sealant. Enjoy the view

No. The package includes tracks that fit into already-installed side rails, along with the cross rails. If you have no side rail elements of any kind already on your roof then this package is not sufficient, sorry.

Not sure about shingles. I used it on my camp trailer and it seemed to do the job...no leaks now. If you've isolated the leaking area, and layed it on pretty thick, it might work. Roof leaks are hard to pinpoint. But, for the price, it'd be worth a shot.

Yes I have a metal roof. There is an outside antenna that the signal is transferred from.

I'm not sure. I have found that having it too close to my laptop computer or my low power amateur radio equipment results in a few false alarms, but it still detects distant lightning strikes. If your tractor has a roof I would mount it as high as possible where it can be seen.

Yes, you just need to be able to stop the laser beam as close to the peak as possible and have it record that measurement from the base. You can even do it by standing on the ground if the roof is too steep to climb. (I wish I could draw you a picture showing how I would do this.) Using creative problem solving skills will be helpful and then those basic geometric formulas will help for a final estimated calculation. Good luck!

I would think not. They are designed to be mounted on the roof at the level of the shingles. There is no flashing to the ceiling. They are designed to evacuate attic air.

yes! It willl also detect fans, stereo speakers,refrigerators, other normal household items. But it's biggest advantage is to identify much smaller and less powerful electo-madnetic anomalies such as insects from another sector the light sprectrum - for instance, creatures from the infra-red and ultra-violet sectors and the less powerful energy left behind from ghosts.\Good luck with your meter and have a lot of fun identifying objects other than by the naked eye.

While I have no personal knowledge, an internet search of other vendor sites show that some people do use it for that purpose with good results. Mine is connected to my roof top antenna.

YES. I use it resting on shingles almost everyday on roofs of every angle and it
