Review on πŸ”‹ MICMI Multipurpose Adjustable Standard Batteries: Enhanced Versatility for All Devices by Chris Cruz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

You get what you pay for

appears to fit the description but is of limited use due to less than 'good' performance. The switch to change from horizontal to vertical to crossing lines was so tight I had to use a screwdriver to move it and I thought it was going to break. THEN move freely. Simple instructions for "press to unlock", "press/exit/up/down", "rotate", "slide" or whatever. The little plastic "stop" tab is just confusing, looks like some sort of "lock" device (it's not). Simply inserting magnets into the base also improves functionality. Suitable for hanging pictures in small, dimly lit spaces, or perhaps cropping in a straight line. Most importantly, the usable range is ridiculously small; about 15 feet and only in low light and very dependent on background for visibility. The lines "blur" and diverge so far beyond a few feet that it makes little difference for true accuracy at any distance or usefulness in bright light/sunlight. The lack of a "point" function also makes it limited. The design of cheap plastic "lenses" for display replacements is responsible for many of these shortcomings. It would be smarter to push and/or twist the accessory. The kit, or a small screwdriver and a 5-inch metal ruler in a beautiful vinyl case, as well as extra batteries (?) Do not compensate for these shortcomings.

Pros
  • 8ft Tape Measure - Comes with an 8ft tape measure with metric and imperial graduations for maximum accuracy.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
