This thing has a dead battery every time I fire it up. Common with these types. Looking for one that doesn't.
Even tho I have far more expensive Mitutoya calipers, for everyday use I mostly use a Harbor Freight stanless steel digital caliper that I bought years ago for under $20. I almost never have to replace the battery in it. It holds up fine, whether I'm using the caliper near daily or if it sits without use for a month or more.
It auto turns off after about a couple minutes of idle time, but I typically turn the readout off manually, promptly after I get my readings.

These are extremely handy for measuring bolts, bike parts, etc. Might get this one as a backup.
