Simple fix for battery holder
4 Stars
Simple fix for battery holder
What others have said - massive fail on the battery holder and off-use power consumption. Here's what I did to fix a couple of issues.The problems with the design are threefold:1. Poor material choice for the positive side battery tab. It looks like beryllium copper, but it's not. It flattens out over time and and it stays flat. This is a big part of why the unit resets while in use - any vibration will cause the battery to lose contact with this tab.2. Poor choice of location for the negative side battery tabs. These are located at the bottom of the compartment and so have the effect of pushing the battery tray back out of the body of the unit. If they had simply put these on the side of the compartment they would have done their electrical job while also functioning as a retention mechanism. But they didn't. Oops.3. Badly designed retention tabs on the tray. They're tiny and do not seat properly.So to address these issues you just have to add two small a pieces of Gorilla tape as shown in the pictures. The big piece covers the "back" of the tray and provides some locating depth, pressing the battery more securely against the sagging positive battery tab. It also serves to hold the gasket in place and raises the effective height of the two undersized retention tabs.The second piece is a little strap to hold the battery in the tray. This is just a convenience to keep the battery in the tray, as it tends to fall out when removing the tray. The battery drains when in the unit in storage, so I just insert the tray when needed.With this fix the battery tray snaps securely into place and stays put. The unit does not reset even when tapped against a hard surface.I haven't tried other tapes, but I would recommend Gorilla tape because of its thickness and durable adhesive. This fix will probably not work with single layers of thinner tapes. Also, be cure not to cover the side of the battery and be sure to center the narrow strip as shown so as not to block the negative tabs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simplemente el mejor vernier en el rango de precio
Reviewed in Mexico on March 18, 2021
RESUMEN
Si buscas un vernier confiable, preciso, robusto (construcción de acero templado REAL), a un precio super accesible, no busques más. ¡Lo has encontrado!

-------------------------
LO BUENO:

• Confiable: La medida es siempre la misma sin importar si mueves el cabezal rápido en el cuerpo.

• Material: Esta echo de acero templado. ¡Todo! Las mandíbulas, el cuerpo, la escala de profundidad, bueno el display es de plástico, pero es normal.

• Acabados: El maquinado es de muy buena calidad, no es perfecto pues tiene algunos bordes afilados donde no debería. No son bordes que te pudieran cortar ni nada como eso, pero si podrían dañar tu superficie de trabajo si es por ejemplo de madera y lo arrastras sobre ella.

• Robusto: ¡Nada se mueve sin que tu intervengas! Las mandíbulas no se mueven de un lado a otro como en los vernieres chinos. De igual manera, si fijas la mandíbula a cierta medida con el tornillo de bloqueo, no se moverá.

• Legibilidad: El display es grande, y tiene muy buen contraste.

• Escalas: Medidas en milimetros, pulgadas decimal y pulgadas fraccional.

• Batería: Usa pilas CR2032, que no sólo suelen durar más que las típicas baterías super pequeñas que usan otros vernieres, sino que al menos para mí son mucho más fáciles de adquirir. (además incluye 2)

• Precio: Por alrededor de 650 pesos (30usd) no hay ningún otro vernier que pueda competir con la calidad de este. Al menos yo no lo he encontrado (y estuve buscando por más de 8 meses).

• Extras: Incluye un par de baterías además de un estuche de plástico duro (se ve bastante más resistente que donde vienen los otros chinos) con espuma recortada a medida para conservar el dispositivo. Se agradece que no sea el estuche genérico de todos los demás.

LO MALO:

• Es muy difícil ponerle peros a este vernier, pero si no considerara que cuesta 1/4 de un mitutoyo económico podría pedir que la rueda del pulgar tuviera menos juego, y tal vez que las mandíbulas superiores (para mediciones internas) fueran un poco menos afiladas.
