Re: Lidl - digital vernier gauge
They're great. Just remember to take out the battery once you've used it

Re: Lidl - digital vernier gauge
How can it be a digital vernier guage?
A vernier is a scale slightly smaller than the adjacent scale that allows the next unit of measurement to be established by its alignment

Re: Lidl - digital vernier gauge
Same as a hoover is a vacuum cleaner etc.
Nobody calls them calipers at work, just verniers. |

Re: Lidl - digital vernier gauge
I bought a digital caliper for a similar price, tested it on a shim, was spot on.

It looks identical to those sold by Clarkes so it should be fairly reasonable. |
