5 out of 5 stars Worth the price   November 17, 2009
L. Ballard (Utah)
I used these calipers to fit crystals in antique watches. They worked perfectly. Easy to use/read. Smooth movement. Easy to switch from inches to millimeters. I didn't use them for shaft diameters where accuracy to the 10th of a thousandth is critical but for everyday GOOD accuracy they are well worth the money. I used them for 6 months and never needed the extra battery. I went out of the watch business and sold them on e-bay for 5$ more than I paid. The buyer loved them and gave me a great review for the product.

Product looked good on arrival, even with a spare battery. Immediately turned out to be junk. The display was erratic, constantly generating seemingly random numbers and obviously did not read accurately, not even close to the actual dimension. I cleaned the rail with cotton cloth as suggested in the manual but it did not help. It never returned to the original zero-gap value. Something probably wrong with the capacitive sensor. It is heading back to the vendor.

This is an excellent value. Does a great job and at this price, I can afford to keep one in my truck as well as another one in my shop.


5 out of 5 stars Way better than expected in this price class.   August 31, 2009

For starters, I feel a little leery about giving this 5 stars as I think some might expect that to mean that I KNOW for a fact that it is super acccurate or something silly like that. I don't. What I do now is that I have checked it against known constants, (Starrett machinists micrometer) and in casual testing, it matches favorably at least in SAE measurements.

This was purchased for a hobby woodworking shop, where I KNOW my material and end product will change in dimension with given seasonal changes. So down to the .000X accuracy is a foolish thing to even consider. It is WAY more accurate than I will ever need. If it gets me within 1/32" I am more than happy...

The case is well made, the instrument itself shows no noticeable deviations. Zeroing the caliper is simple, and movement is smooth and appears accurate.

Please take this review for the its intended purpose... If you are a hobby woodworker, this caliper is WAY more accurate than you will ever need. If however you are doing machine work this might have enough build in inaccuracy to make a difference. But then again if I were using this to measure out cylinder bores, I should have my wrenches taken away as this is the WRONG TOOL FOR THE JOB!

I don't use the caliper very often but I think this is one of my best tool investments. I like the readout feature and it is very accurate.
