Chadvdw67 Posted February 27, 2021 Posted February 27, 2021 Thanks, good observation .... With my "short arms" I find myself standing under the best light to read the vernier with all four eyes .... was thinking of getting a digital unit ....If you are are really worried about the digital vernier batteries going flat you could also get a dial gauge vernier, no batteries to go flat and a little easier to read for the visually impaired, having said that, we have digital verniers and the batteries last forever, at least 3-4years, so....

My digital Mitutoyo is one of the best tools I have ever bought as my eyesight fades a tad. It gets lots of use and batteries do ok; unless you forget to switch it off BigDL, ChrisF and TheoG 3
TheoG Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) My digital Mitutoyo is one of the best tools I have ever bought as my eyesight fades a tad. It gets lots of use and batteries do ok; unless you forget to switch it off I got a Chinese cheapy (but decent quality) digital vernier, also the batteries last a long time. Even if I forget to switch off, it goes off after a while by itself. Can even switch between mm & inch. Edited February 28, 2021 by TheoG Vetplant, Hairy, ChrisF and 1 other 4

Soos hulle sê, jou k@k is in die pos . Long Wheel Base, Vetplant and ChrisF 3

Steady Spin Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 just how old are you toppies with your waning eye sight ......... Old enough to struggle reading posts in comic sans on iPhone. The font changes to this odd looking serif italic mess. Takes a lot of squinting and moving the phone back and forward towards my glasses. BigDL and Long Wheel Base 2
