I bought the same scale from Enco during the sale. It was less than $90 delivered to my door. They suggest that the accuracy is .0015 and repeatability is .0005 ... what I would expect from the technology and the price.
I have to admit that I am reasonably impressed with the heft of unit. Regretfully the scale is not as free on the vertical bar as I would like but I think I can work that out.
The unit that I got had been on the shelf long enough for the battery to be DOA. Easy enough to replace. All in all better than the nothing that I had and I fell worth what I've spent.
I have to agree Arvid. I think we can make these work for what we need them for. I've used my dial height gauge on just about every project and I'd be lost without one. The digital version has some nice features, once we figure out how to use them.
