  We study the phase transition in the holographic entanglement entropy for
various confining models. This transition occurs for the entanglement entropy
of a strip at a critical value of the strip width. Our main interest is to
examine the critical width for models with several parameters. For these
models, the critical width, the glueball mass and the string tension all become
functions of these two parameters. Comparing the behavior of the critical width
in the entanglement entropy and these other scales, we find that $l_c$ seems to
follow closely the deconfinement temperature and the glueball mass. The
behavior of the string tension is similar to $l_c$, despite of being
parametrically smaller than the other quantities.
