5.0 out of 5 stars Preforms as well as caliper sets costing three to four times this one., July 18, 2009

I purchased this caliper to use for model building but found it to be accurate enough to be used for much more. I now use it (when needed) for case preparation when reloading metallic cartridges, and believe it would satisfy most mechanics for engine and light machine work.

Easily switches SAE / Metric with a single button. The zero button allows easy calibration, comparison measurements, and makes using the depth gauge much easier.

Operates the same as Vernier calipers I have used that cost three to four times what this one costs.

Includes an extra battery and a decent storage case.

Resolution: 0.0005" (0.01mm).

Believe the stated accuracy is correct at .001" / 0.02mm (< 100mm); 0.001" / 0.03mm (100mm - 200mm).

Repeatability: 0.0005" / 0.01mm

Slightly less shock resistant than mechanical and dial type caliper.

Overall a great buy for the price. I am completely satisfied with this set.

This review is from: SE Electric Digital Caliper 6" (Misc.)

Back in college only the privileged kids had those fancy Mitutoyo digital calipers. Fast forward to 2010 and these things have become accessible to the masses not just the well-to-do. People at work teased me for $14 SE calipers until we tested in with gauge blocks and it was dead nuts accurate! The boss went and bought a boat load of these puppies for everyone and we use them daily. Incredible value! Am I a nerd for reviewing digital calipers? Yes.

The calipers many fine points are all very good the depth gage the inner and outer prongs all work with excellence and the accuracy is precise. The digital read out makes taking the measurements exacting and error free with it's easy view of the readings taken you can't mistake seeing and writing them down for your use later. Over all it is one of the best calipers I've ever used, and I've used around 6 different types.
