...PMK.......these little L1154 disc batteries are only 1.5 Vdc
A digital caliper battery in good charge will display
0.00 mm when closed
A digital caliper battery in low charge will display
0.00 mm when closed
A digital caliper if connected to 6Vdc will display ........... mm when closed
>>:-
Tis not worth the scaling concept...... as this
will only convert your caliper into an adjustable spanner with ZERO display in the TV screen..........
Tis also amazing how many degree engineers cannot read an older vernier calliper without that same electronic TV set in the corner
Tis also amazing how many young trades persons can read a conventional vernier calliper in mm & 1/1000 of a mm & nominate the correct dimension, however cannot understand & read the same dimension in the imperial [inches "] dimension at the same time
Bogstandard & I have discussed this on a number of occasions.......
,
Naturally in OZ, current engineerings Drawings are ISO Metric, but many still current older Drawings are in their imperial dimensions
The simple example is a 1" shaft on the imperial Drawing is listed as 1" -.001/+.000 ... so the young trades person could report this as 25.40 to 25.3746 & both are correct...........
Talk about how thick........how thick is a sheet of paper?..........in my day [bond paper] was approx 0.0035" .....so 25.4 x 0.0035" =
0.0889 mm but that is a number I cannot visualize .........
