I did the same! And now every time I go to use the thing I have to look up how to read it again.
I don't do highly accurate work very often, obviously.
I don't like buying non-rechargeable batteries, though, so cell batteries are out.
- IshKebab 4y agoI agree. They're not difficult to read but they're definitely more of a pain than replacing a battery once a year. A dial caliper is better than a vernier caliper anyway. Still more of a pain to read than a digital one.

I used to use electric ones for 3D prints and designs, and haven't tries that since - might not be able to get the same perfect results with mechanical ones.
