Good product!

This tool works great. The price is reasonable and it serves its purpose. I would like the button to be slightly recessed so it doesn't accidentally turn on while in the tool bag. But it still works well and the battery lasts a long time. For the record, don't waste your money on that stupid speedo tape, just buy a roll of aluminum tape and you've got a lifetime supply that will work just as well. .

Pros
  • Use reflective tape on the object to be measured and align the built-in laser.
Cons
  • Unsure

Works as advertised, maybe not too robust

This device works as advertised. I've used it on a number of projects and measured fan speeds in ovens. It fits my needs perfectly, but may not be strong enough for daily use in the field. The plastic case feels thin and is unlikely to survive drops from any height. It would be better if the case is made of a softer material that absorbs shock. Like I said, he's doing his job.

Pros
  • Laser light source for better accuracy and longer measurement distance
Cons
  • Damaged

Digital speed measurement for 12-18,000rpm cutters

Delivered as expected. Item received as described as advertised. It was ordered to measure the rotation speed of the router bits. Seems to have unstable RPM even with reflective tape on the 3/4" bit. It was measured at 50 mm. Let's test it with another 1.5 inch bit. It could also be operator error. The accuracy of the Extech Mini Laser Tachometer has not yet been established. Easy to use. The device is well made.

Pros
  • Large 5 digit backlit LCD
Cons
  • New competitors arrived
