Pros & Cons
Pros
The battery replacement is pretty straightforward. It is easy to reset to zero if it comes out of adjustment.
Display is large and easy to read. Converts between mm fractions and decimals on the fly. Repeatable readings. Useful for determining wrench size for a given bolt or size of a particular drill bit.
