inexpensive digital readout

[gbritnell]

Gentlemen,
Does anyone know anything about this product? The reader head seems a little bigger than the typical one found on the import scales but I wouldn't think that would be too big of a problem.

George,
That looks like the read outs being discussed in this thread:

I think the Grizzly ones being discussed are shorter, but it's the same company.

Thanks Kevin, they look like one in the same.

Also looks similar to the one I got from Warco

I love mine, readout is very neat and compact but still easy to read, much nicer than the unit I got from ArcEuroTrade which is almost impossible to read unless your at exactly the right angle. It also has auto off function, remembers what units you were in when powered on and displays fractions as well as decimals of an inch (last one is a bit gimimmicky but could be useful ?)

Cheers

Jim

Have a look at the Griz Site I believe they have longer ones now.
