Used to set blade angles on lathes, milling machines and miter, band, table, chop and circular saws. BONUS: Any reading in degrees can be converted to a percentage to indicate slope. COMPACT- This 2.1-inch x 2.1-inch mini digital protractor is small enough to fit in your pocket or slide into a tool belt with ease. MEASURE NOW, CUT LATER- Don’t have a pen or pencil handy, measurement HOLD button saves readings for convenient viewing later.

Disappointing Detector

As a result of my tests, I determined that this detector was not up to par for industrial and scientific use. The range was limited and the accuracy was questionable. Although it was lightweight and easy to use, it did not provide reliable results.

Pros
  • Lightweight and easy to use
Cons
  • Limited range and questionable accuracy

Empty batteries - Protractor

He was completely dead, aside from the fact that he could barely read ghost numbers when on. Some numbers are burned into the screen. It's like it's been going on for a long time. Of course it's 2 watch batteries, so that's another $5 on the price. I could trade it in for a new one but that seems like more work than it's worth as I don't have a printer to create the label.

Pros
  • COMPACT. This mini digital protractor measures 2.1" x 2.1" and is small enough to fit in your pocket or tool belt.
Cons
  • No performance

Questionable readability

Item arrived with dead batteries. So I had to put in a new pair. The calibration process seems inaccurate. When set to zero, it suddenly switches to another reading without moving the instrument in any direction. If you leave the batteries plugged in, they'll probably be dead by the time you plan to use them every other day next time. I tried to measure the same angle. several times, and each time a different reading was obtained. The LCD display is difficult to read unless you are directly in…

Pros
  • MAGNETIC - Built-in strong magnets in protractor, attaches to saw, planer or other metal surface. Can even be attached to metal tool boxes for easy access.
Cons
  • Something else
