Hello All,
I decided I needed a digital vernier calipers recently. Having considered the options and the ammount of use I have for them now I decided to go for the cheap & cheerful option.
I opted for this item on the bay and I think it's a good little item for DIY use.
The accuracy is 0.02mm which is comparable with say a mitutoyo. The repeatability is 0.01mm on the specs which is where the mitutoyo would win hands down. When I opened it to max and closed it again 20 times it went from showing 0.00mm at closed to -0.04mm.
Subtotal: £2.50
Postage & packaging: £3.45
Total: £5.95
Dispatched within 2 days and delivered from China (I assume) in 15 days.
Might be useful to some.
(NCTS).
