Inaccurate Unreliable

Own an auto repair shop. Nowadays you don't need a chronometer, but you have to deal with the repair of classic cars and you need a chronometer. A risk taken. I'm sorry I don't have that I took it out of the box for the first time to check the MGB time. My old OTC has expired. I knew the time wasn't wasted just by looking at it. This light was everywhere no matter where it was up or down the wire. Borrowed from friends Harbor Freight, the light worked perfectly, the time was accurate and didn't

Pros
  • Working without hands
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

DO NOT buy: Time lamps

Bought this flashlight at the end of 2019 and used it about 5 times. She never got wet, she never fell, she was always very careful and careful with all her tools. A few days ago I used a timer and the light didn't blink. After removing the cover I found that the bulb was burned out and soldered in place, so this isn't a very quick and easy fix. I contacted innova tech support to ask about lamp replacement or how to properly handle the situation considering I've used the lamp less than 5 times…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • No.

Uneven and somewhat weak light. No flash trigger. The touch worked well. But the flash was very disappointing. The flash timing is not controlled by a trigger, but by a button below the screen. As a result, it turns itself off about every 10 seconds, as if it had a duty cycle limiter built in. This is logical, but a real problem. With the trigger button, you can easily adjust the light to the desired position, press the trigger for a few seconds, and then take a reading. YOU become the duty…

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • Everything ok

I have owned this light for 1 year and almost 2 months. I read the reviews and ended up with this lamp. The light is great, beautiful and bright, easy to use. I like the dial back feature for checking the vacuum feed and mechanical feed, the RPM readings are very nice too. The lamp has never been dropped and I have only used it 3-4 times. Last week when I set up my vacuum the light stopped working and then came on intermittently. I called Innova and knew the warranty was only 1 year (I have 1…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Damaged

Adjustable timing and RPM,

Overview 5568Pro – An adjustable RPM indicator that's more important than most shade tree mechanics. and should be treated like a delicate instrument. Kon's buttons don't immediately understand what they're doing, but it's never taken me more than a minute to figure out exactly what I want. my car or in the shade is a perfectly reasonable request ;) not strong enough to hit the doorstep salesmen preventing me from timing my car in the garage. This tool survives a fall from a car fender, but…

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Vanish

Model 3568 lasts about 2 years before it starts to fail

Purchased in this time frame (Innova 3568a) almost 4 years ago. It worked fine for the first year (2014), although I only used it 3-4 times on my machine. The next year I switched to the MSD ignition, couldn't use that timer but no big deal. I used it once on a friend's car in 2015 to make sure its timing was where it should be at 2500rpm and working as intended again. Then came 2017, I removed the MSD ignition from my car and now use FiTech EFI for timing. I was expecting this device to work…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
