I prefer this
I've had 100 dollar stud finders that couldn't do what this magnet does. They aren't terribly accurate and require batteries.
Mod* Podge

As someone used to UK/EU wiring, in the US, I'm always a little surprised at wiring using the wire nuts, since the ones I've seen mostly fell off as soon as I'd looked at them (mostly homeowner installed/very old)
What's your opinion on these things? In the UK that's normally what I'd expect connecting any wires together inside boxes (with the correct rating/etc. of course). I assume an inspector out here in CA would be highly suspicious of them ;)
