I tend to use the lock screw to stop the sliding part moving now as that turns it on when you don't want it to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrobits Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Cheap and n...y, batteries don't last. Not had a problem with it turning itself on while in the box though. Nigel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to take the battery out now and put it back when using it even tho I've a fair few of that type kicking about spare. Bring back proper on/off switches I say!

PeterW Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I always store mine with the battery and lid out so I know it’ll fire up when I need it. My eyesight isn’t friendly with the old analogue calipers…. 😞 Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
