my tape measure has an e-ink display

literal coolest thing ever

3 decimals on a measuring tape is asking for trouble

why

you can't mark anything to .001, straightness (vertical and horizontal) over any sort of length will drastically impact the measurement, and usually you need an exposed edge, not the location of the butt of the measuring tape body. BUT I still want one.

ah I see pick your poison i guess

Oled?

ye the top one is OLED (would’ve preferred all e-ink tbh)

Oooh I see it in the side now, does that show the list of saved measurements or something?

yes and they also become available via rest API

@realwillreil wait they have an api?

@realwillreil okay i’ve learned the API is cloud slop so ignore that what you can do is make it act as a bluetooth HID keyboard and capture the measurements like that

@nyanotech Sweet, so you could have a spreadsheet with the planned measurements and fill them all out

Things massive, seems real cool but just like cheap digital calipers. Once they die and they do, its just a huge expensive version of another tool.

how do you think it will die? I'll update if it it does thats for sure lol digital calipers are goated too but only useful <= 1-2ft

Things like that never stay zeroed for long. One light drop or getting knocked around on belts boxes etc. If you have it as a work tool power to ya hope it works for years to come. 20yrs in and ive stopped trusting gimmicky tool stuff.

what the fugg

ikr

wow thats a nice tape measure

random piece of MDF for video sake

Tell me you’re gay without telling me

Yeah it's cool, but when I don't use if for a few months and then pick it up and the battery is dead I'm going to throw it at the wall so hard it comes apart like a Lego star wars character dying

atleast it usb c charges

I am an ape

Product link?

I sleep in a big bed with my wife.

digital tape measure guys never seem to understand that usability means that you should have at most 1 button on the thing and it should be just as compact as a regular tape measure

lol measuring your penis will never be the same ever again
