Finally a rechargeable caliper, why hasn't this happened sooner!

I've dreamed of this type of product for years, every time I reached for a caliper it was the batteries empty. Now don't worry, after a few minutes of charging you'll be ready to go again, and the rechargeable lithium battery will hold a charge for a long time.

Pros
  • RECHARGEABLE: With the included USB cable there is no longer a need to buy extra hard-to-replace batteries
Cons
  • Only available in black

Requires calibration out of the box, but USB!

Why don't other manufacturers offer a USB rechargeable caliper set? I use my calipers regularly; but I have to change the batteries on the port versions about every year. With this more expensive kit; I can load up with my computer since that's where I do most of my CAD work. The reason for the loss of the star is twofold: 1) calipers did not work immediately. I had to follow the calibration procedure in the manual to get it working properly. 2) Expensive. If the same "brand" is sold on HF; for

Pros
  • 5 MIN AUTO OFF: For long battery life
Cons
  • AC outlet required

Almost as good as I hoped

I love the performance of these calipers. I needed a rechargeable kit because my other batteries were draining too quickly and this fitted the bill. I knew I would have to pay a little more for it, and that's okay. My problem and the reason for the 3 star rating is that the number on the screen jumps +/- 0.03mm when constantly pressed against the workpiece. No doubt you can get accurate readings from this tool, but the fact that it jumps +/- from the number you're actually reading is annoying…

Pros
  • EXTRA LARGE: Easy to read 3-mode digital display - toggle between inches, millimeters and fractions with the push of a button
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
