Digital Caliper
 

Spotted in Lidl -not that I have ever been in there-

Digital, £5.99 and availiable from next week.

I cant see it when i click that link :confused:

Beware when buying these very cheap digital calipers they will not give accurate or constant readings. A good quality Digital vernier caliper can be bought for about £15. from any Engineers shop Cromwell Tools as branches Nation wide. This advise comes from my Engineering background of 30 years.

i work in the motor trade & as a main dealer we have to have everything calibrated as part of our British Standards or whatever they call it nowadays (it keeps changing) and one of our guys gave his lidl calipers to the caltec calibration guy & he said they were spot on :eh?:

i just bought a digital vernier & micrometer set off the snapon man & tbh i wish i'd found a cheaper alternative :rolleyes:

even worse than that i found the mitutoyos i thought i'd lost in one of my hauler bags! i'm overun with measuring equipment :rolleyes:

Still works for me, start with www.lidl.co.uk then head into Tools of the Trade.

I used to calibrate anologue equipment, these days I cannot see for toffee, I find em very handy, somehow the battery is alway flat ! but I am getting the hang of that.:D

not there for me either what post code u using as they are regional offers

same here cheap ones i have allways come up ok on the calibration test.

Ive got the 100mm maplins one and its a good size to have in my pit box, doesnt need to be any longer really.
