Better than expected [Posted on 2008-04-03]
I needed something cheap for a few tasks. This exceeded those needs. It has recevied more use then expected and comes in a nice case. Switches between inch and millimeter with the touch of a button -- no need to remeasure.

Good Product [Posted on 2008-05-20]
Nice item. The case is great for transporting. The extra battery is also helpful. Saves a future trip to the store. The 12" is a little big if you dont need the extra size go for the smaller 6" one. I do wish it also measured in fractions also. Yes I know you can convert but that would be helpful.

Beware [Posted on 2008-10-01]
Based on the previous good reviews, it sounds like I got a lemon. My set of calipers sometimes loses its mind. The digital readout will start incrementing even without sliding the caliper jaws. If I leave the calipers on my bench, I sometimes come back and find that the readout has climbed to a ridiculously high number like 90" (the calipers are obviously only 12" long).

If I pull the calipers out quickly it will lose count along the way. Full travel of the calipers should be 12.065", but if I pull them open rapidly it only counts to 11" or so.

For me, these were a waste of $40. I tried to cheap out since my work isn't typically critical to more than .010", but these are horrible. I bought a $125 economy set out of McMaster instead and they work great.
