Excellent product. It has a cylinrical tip which is easy to subtract fron the edge. Most have odd round diameters that have .312 and the fowler has a .200 diameter that is easier to calculate. Just chuck it up, touch off while stationary and spinning, at edge all the leds light,raise up and move in .100 which is half the diameter and you centered over top of the edge of the material. Easier than clickers or offset edge finders and visibly easier to see. Well worth the money and time saved.

A good tool with great precision when it works.

As others have said the tool may not always function when used. It appears that the design of the battery cap is such that, movement of the tool may disconnect the batteries. This can be seen after a short period of use from inserting the tool into and removing from the machine. What worked seconds ago when touched to another edge suddenly did not. This issue may cause damage to either the tool or the part when moving it to contact with your work piece.

If the tool battery cap was redesigned i may purchase again. However after a few occurrences of it looks like its bending rather than lighting up on contact I no longer trust the accuracy of the tool i have and will no longer use it.

Another important feature to note is that this tool is not to be used with the spindle on. Its instructions explicitly state that the spindle should remain off during use. (Which in and of itself is a deal breaker for some.)

Extremely accurate. I am using it in a Bridgeport Mill and couldn't be happier. It seems to be holding up better than the 1/2" diameter Edge Finder I've used in the past. Repeatability is +/- .0002".

Good value.

Easy to locate any edge with this, as long as the edge you are locating conducts electricity.

So if you are prototyping something in a synthetic material, this won't work.

Basically this is relying on the 12v battery to flow current through your spindle, into your table/vice and close the circuit by traveling through your part and into the tip of the edge finder.

So far it appears to work very well and just as accurate as my other wobblers, only easier to see.

It's not the most polished product, but it works as advertised and is accurate.

The sensor tip is prone to bending if you accidentally turn the leadscrew the wrong way, and it will not work at all on non-conductive workpieces. Also, the main body is soft aluminum, and is easily chewed up by the chuck jaws. You can't tighten it more than hand-tight, or you risk deforming the shaft. On the plus side, the LED does give an accurate contact indication on metal workpieces.

These work great, but be aware that there's no flexibility in it for over travel. I've ruined a few and have now moved on to the ball tipped version which won't snap if I move a little too quickly. That being said, the repeatability was excellent on my machine. Easily sub 0.001" and probably very close the the claimed 0.0002".

I also changed the batteries before trying to use this on my CNC system. The original didn't last all the well.

Works pretty well, especially for old guys like me who can't see or hear the other types of finders very easily. They are accurate, but not designed to protect against overrun, and not designed to be used while turning. I use mine while the spindle is turning for better accuracy, but I'm sure the tip will eventually wear since it isn't carbide.

Appears to be good quality - used a few times and I like the non-spin function. You still put it in your collet, but not having the part turning reduces the vibration and it appears to allow you to get closer to the edge as a result. Fits well into a .50 collet. LED's are bright, no mistaking when they contact metal. Good product.
