GemRed 82412 Mini Digital Level Angle Gauge: Accurate Aluminum Protractor With Magnet Review

Just what I needed to dial in my drive line and caster (Jeep TJ). Easy to use and the magnet base is solid! No alert for low battery.

I bought this to measure my lean angles when riding my motorcycle. I specially liked its dimensions as it didn't block much of my dashboard.But I had to return it. The numbers changed constantly in split-seconds. I had to take my eyes off the road for an uncomfortable amount of time to get a read.Not its planned use. I happily gave it five stars. If another rider reads this, don't buy it. Keep looking for a meter which has a delayed read once maximum lean is reached.

A real time saver in the shop! I am learning woodworking and come from a CNC machining background, so am very familair with this type of instrument. Being able to incorporate this gauge into my workflow has made it a lot easier for me, and I am very happy to work with more accurate cuts. Only drawback has been that it can be slow to react to changes, not terribly so, but noticable. I am never in a hurry as I am just a hobbyist, but some may find it annoying. But for the price I highly recommend

The angle finder does its job well, and it's not complicated. For the price, it's as good as you can expect or want it to be. The only change I could ask for is clearer indicators to show whether the measured angle is left or right of perfect vertical, as the triangle arrows on this unit just point up or down, which isn't an intuitive way to show it. A diagram of an acute angle opening to the left or right would be much more intuitive. It is fairly sensitive to being tilted backwards (roughly…

SUPER helpful for my intended use on my table saw. It’s a contractor model that gets packed away daily. Since it’s in a different spot every day, I can simply zero the gauge on the saw deck, then stick it to the blade (cuz it’s got a magnet on it) to ensure it’s at my desired angle. Makes setup much quicker.

I can't speak to the absolute accuracy of this mini level, but it's great for setting up knife sharpening angles. Thanks for attention.

So, you set your blade to it is 90 deg from the table top. however make sure the table top is level to start or it is all for naught. You could be 90 deg from the floor and it could be tilted so the table top is not always level to zero to start. Am I crazy or can anyone else confirm this for me?

Decent set for the price. It's worked well for my intended uses at the router table, shaper, and table saw. Also enabled a better setup of my jointer knives than I believe I could've gotten with the feeler gauge that came with the machine. Easy to read displays. Sometimes think I'd like for the plastic legs to be a bit more stout and the depth gauge movement to feel a little more "polished," but I don't think I can complain much at this price point. The angle gauge is an excellent fine…
