Review on ๐Ÿ”ง ESynic Electronic Measuring Conversion Screwdriver: Simplify Your DIY Projects by Carlos Abood

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wait for version 2.0 (or a competitor)

Those are good calipers. The processing is slightly better than my Harbor Freight. The backlight is such an obvious feature that it amazes me that these are the only affordable calipers with thousands of nearly identical Revain calipers. This is what I was specifically looking for and I bought them because they have them. It's even beautiful - even the backlight and easy to read. Then why wait? Because it's bullshit. Prototype. Not ready for the customer. The designers took their Chinese calipers and created a separate lighting scheme. The backlight does not turn on and off automatically with the display. Instead it has a momentary button that you have to use with a third hand when you're measuring something, or you can slide that button like a switch that drains all of your battery if you leave it on. The switch is hard and needs to be pressed hard for it to slide, which is awkward and hard on the main button, so I have doubts about its durability. I often use my calipers intermittently throughout the day and don't want to struggle with that switch every time. I almost don't want to give a bad review because I want it to be popular enough that other manufacturers feel like they're missing out. and finally get together and get this thing right. All caliper gauges must be backlit, as must all LCD displays. As soon as there are well-designed, reasonably priced, and preferably half-inch lighted calipers, I'll buy them and be happy. However, I am returning this.

Pros
  • 6 inch digital caliper
Cons
  • boring packaging
