That one is very nice.  They also make one for about $7 on sale.  It
doesn't have a case nor does it have the finger that slides out the tail
for measuring depth.

Since it doesn't come with a case, you have to be careful how and where
you store it.  I had it in a bag of tools, and it got turned on by something
on top of it.  That killed the battery very quickly.

I also have several of their plastic ones $2 ea.  I use them all the time
when I'm measuring bolts, etc. that don't have to be that exact.  And if
I break/loose one, I'm not out anything.  Which I didn't see in their
online catalog. :(  Hope their still making them.

Another very nice toy is their IR thermometers

I've had mine for over a year now.  Don't use it a lot, but when you want
to see if a brake is dragging, the AC vent temps, or radiator temps, it's
fantastic!!
