Review on Calculated Industries 7434 AccuMASTER Inclinometer by Justin Vasquez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Started with hope, left disappointed.

The batteries were dead. Not a big deal, but definitely worth a look. I replaced the batteries and got to work. Here are my observations: 1. The battery life is terrible, I seem to have to change it every few days. To be honest I work in a pretty busy production hall and it gets used quite a bit. However, in my opinion, this is not enough to justify the need to replace the batteries every few days.2. I've been constantly checking the accuracy because it seems to fluctuate a bit, even if I'm sitting on a flat surface the readings will fluctuate.3. The magnet on this one is not very strong. Since it's about making steel (bumpers, stone sliders, roll cages, etc.), the workshop is covered in steel dust (my girlfriend insists on calling it human shine), and even the slightest amount hits a corner finder or any of yours The magnet makes surfaces almost unusable. I'd say it would probably be great for woodworking, but I wouldn't recommend it for regular use when working with steel.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
