Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a device comprising an upper housing, a lower housing, an electronics module, an electronics button, a side button, and a strip magnet. The strip magnet is coupled to the lower housing. The strip magnet is constructed to cause resistance to motion across a metal fastener. The resistance to motion is perceptible to a user of the device. The resistance is indicative of a location of the metal fastener and, thereby, allows the user of the device to locate the metal fastener if the electronics module fails to detect the metal fastener.
