    This review is from: 6 Inch LCD Digital Caliper with Extra Battery and Case (Misc.)

    First I’m going to run through what came in the box and then I’ll describe each item:

    1. The digital caliper

    2. A spare battery

    3. A case

    4. Instructions

    5. Certificate of calibration

    6. Two copies of the MaxTool catalog

    First of all, I’m impressed that they hand tested my caliper on 20 different test gauges and included a hand-written table of the amount of error in each coming to an average error of 0.02mm. By the way, the certificate is 0.0055 in. thick :)

    Next, the instruction sheet shows a diagram of the tool and tells how to use each function.

    There’s a spare battery :)

    The case holds the caliper and the spare battery. Also, the case is rock-hard plastic with foam padding on the inside.

    The caliper itself is awesome. It measures in both inches and millimeters to a tolerance of 0.0005 in. or 0.01 mm. It is capable of being plugged into a computer (cable not included). It has faces for measuring outside diameter, inside diameter, depth and a step (or height). There are three buttons for toggling power, toggling SA and metric and zeroing (or tare).

    This is a wonderful buy even if you don’t need it. I say this because there will eventually be a time where you’ll be doing something and realize that it’s the proper tool.

    It is no Mitutuyo (which retails for about $90+) and it has one less digit…BUT for most applications this nice little caliper is more than you need. You can have eight of these around the same price! The price figures as a big plus in ranking it, of course, but it works well and it does what it is supposed to do. One small footnote, the steel in the jaws is not very hard (as in a more expensive caliper); it will bend and distort a bit more than you would like it to. But, then again, if you need a top-notch caliper, look at a Mitutoyo or the like. For the price, you can not beat this one.

    I bought this unit mostly because I figured I couldn’t lose much for so little money. I have since figured it was a great deal. I even recommended my company to buy one for the shop. They were glad I told them. Everyone I have shown this item has told me they are impressed with the quality of build and the very very low price. It came with everything necessary, such as the hard case (good quality) and extra battery. The instructions are all in English and clear. No need to worry about this one. This vendor shipped my caliper on time and I got it in good shape.
