Listing with caliper and USB charger makes no sense. But lately sellers started packing two more or less unrelated items - one cheap, and one expensive (that you actually want to buy). The reason is that more expensive item then appears much higher in the search result when buyer chooses ordering by price. So this about $4 (or whatever the price was) caliper would be listed at the top, as $1 item. This shady practice should be forbidden by eBay.

The reason the lightbulb goes instantly dim is because it starts off with a very low resistance many times lower than its nominal one! As it heats up to temperature, the resistance shoots up within seconds. Plus you can imagine your battery as having a parallel capacitance due to its layered construction, so after you draw a good bout of current out of it, its ESR too goes up.

0.1mm resolution is far from "super accurate"! You should be able to find stainless steel calipers with 0.01mm resolution and a nice box locally for less than $10-15 (at least while on sale). Your local car and home store (ie. Canadian Tire) should have them so it is quicker than ordering from China and with a local return policy if there is a problem. Plastic will wear especially if you are turning round items a lot to find the narrowest or thickest diameter.

The calipers are quadri calipers and have 4 measuring faces, you found 3. The fourth are opposite the hole depth gauge end if you turn them over when you slide them you'll notice that the end face and the back of the caliper have 2 parallel faces which can be used to measure stepped faces. Don't worry most engineers don't know that either. I've only used the metal versions as I'm not sure how accurate the plastic ones would be. There is also a reason they are called verniers, as the readings are only very near, real inspectors / engineers would use something a bit more accurate tolerance dependant but when your working to .0005" or .01mm accuracy they are not so good. Still ok for measuring most stuff.

The "feature" of the display of the calipers turning on on movement is actually pretty annoying. It shows you that the "off" switch only blanks the display, but the rest is still running. That's why it's very likely that you will come back to a flat battery after a few month even without ever using it. Either remove the battery after every use (which is quite a hassle) or rig something up to disconnect the battery. I use a strip of sturdy plastic sheet cut from the blister pack. I jammed it in under the battery with a tab sticking out that I can turn to break the contact. Also you should get the metal version of these calipers. I got mine at Hofer, the Austrian Aldi (yep, we are one of the only two countries in the world where Aldi isn't called "Aldi") for 12€. They have it randomly once a year. Should be the same with Lidl. My metal version has the exact same display, but displays another digit after the decimal point (where yours is blank). It also has a small metal wheel which is useful for fine adjustments, a locking screw and it's made out of metal so you can transfer a locked measurement easily by scratching (don't tell machinists ;) ) And the thing about the listing: I report such listings to ebay as "search and browse manipulation". Sellers are using the multiple item option to add completely unrelated items with a lower price so it shows up further up in search results by price, while at the same time placing the more expensive item as first item in the title.

To all you $10 Caliper people: Dont make the mistake I did of buying the METAL calipers without the digital thing. They are complete crap, you are better off buying this plastic one with the accurate digital device than trying to read cheap metal calipers manually.

Get a good pair, Mitutoyo or Starrett, digital, dial (or even old school harder to read vernier) with carbide jaws... take care of them (don't let any batteries corrode), and they'll preform admirably & be passed down for generations.

i would just go to a damn store and buy 20$ metal, digital calipers. its really not that much money and they usually last quite a long time.

You talk about the specs as if it means somthing :\ Mentioning any kind of specs from china only make people look a little slow. Unless you are bagging them out that is.
