Items: $29.92
Your Coupon Savings: -$4.45
Total Before Tax: $25.47

I just ordered a Klein Tools 935DAG for $25.47 after coupon from Amazon. CCC shows $29.92 as lowest price, however it's not taking the coupon into consideration so I don't know if there have previously been better coupons based on my research of CCC and past SD posts.

Seems to me to be a good price for this unit, but curious to what the community thinks about this tool compared to any other options out there in this price range.

Anyone know how these compare to the Wixey digital angle finders? I've got one and it seems to work well, but it isn't orange.

Update:
Searched around and it seems that vs. Wixey the Klein has:
-stronger magnets
-AAA batteries vs. CR2032
-Better display
·
That's the beauty of these. I have the Wixey, and you pretty much calibrate it every time you use it. For example on my table saw, I don't need to know the angle of my blade relative to the earth's gravity, but rather to the table top. I zero the angle guide on the table, then adjust my blade to 90, 45, or whatever angle I need. Same on the drill press table- I just need to know the angle of the table to the column / drill bit. So I zero it on the flat side of the drill press head, then adjust the table to the angle I need.
·
I decided to buy one, which is exactly why I shouldn't hang out on this website. When I die and people are sifting through my stuff at the estate sale they will wonder why the hell I have two digital angle finders, 500 clamps, and 4 jig saws spread across 3 different battery systems.

Solid, despite downvotes. I've got both, and the phone matches the device reading every time...sort of annoyed by that.

When I looked into soldering lithium batteries, I took the warnings of overheating causing t he battery to catch fire and explode seriously.
For those willing to take the risk, skills are a start. In addition, a temperature controlled soldering iron with a higher temperature capacity would be recommended.
Most (not all) LiPo batteries have wires already soldered to them, so you'd only be soldering the wire to the PCB, not soldering on the battery itself. So no real risk there. Even if you had to solder to the battery directly, in the 2 or 3 seconds it takes to solder a wire, it would have no effect - the battery wouldn't have time to heat up enough to cause any issue at all. After all, someone had to solder those wires onto the battery originally, right? Smilie

I have this tool and use it for doing toe-in alignments on my cars. When I'm adjusting the front toe-in, I attach it to the wrench I'm using to rotate the inner tie rod on one side of the car to measure the exact number of degrees I turn the wrench. Then I can set the other side exactly the same. Having an illuminated screen also helps to read the display under the car.

Quote from Roundabout :
LiPo batteries can be replaced, if you have even a modicum of skill and a soldering iron. I understand for some it might be a challenge, but the type of person that buys tools is usually a bit more skilled than average. Anyway, that's why there's choices in the marketplace, you're free to buy whatever works for you. So far, I haven't any issues with the device. YMMV.
True, but AAA batteries can be replaced without a soldering iron so they win. That, and you won't have to scour the internet trying to find the right Li-Ion battery, then hope it isn't in worse shape than the dead one you already have.

I'd pass on this, I'd pass on Wixey. Having magnets on the side and bottom are incredibly useful and convenient compared to mounting it to stuff sideways. Also having a 9V battery instead of AAA or button cell batteries will last a very long time. Get this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006JR8...UTF8&psc=1

That isn't going to accurately correct toe. Toe is the difference in distance compared between the rear and the front on the wheels on the same axle plane. Without measuring that distance, you have no idea what the toe actually is. String and a tape measure are the tools a backyard mechanic uses for that. Camber now, this could be very useful.

Quote from MadPup :
My man! laugh out loud
Seriously though folks, my advice is to not buy this. It's essentially useless. Do you want to know the angle of an incline or do you just want to be sure that something is vertical or horizontal? Use a spirit level. I rest my case.
While i agree, this is not a replacement for a level, it is definitely not useless. I just bought this same one about a month ago to check the angle of an engine/transmission where I was building a custom transmission mount.. I knew I needed the angle approx 4.75 degrees. I couldn't do that with a level, or even that precise with a protractor.

Just put lift kit on your Jeep and need to check your pinion angle? definitely can't do that with a level either.

Now if you're using it to hang a picture frame, then you're probably wasting your $$

Quote from grandprixfamily :
im in for 1. saw a review where a guy used this to check camber settings on automotive alignment. brilliant. ill use it for that too, since i build a few track cars from time to time.
^ This guy found a use for it too!

You miss the point. This tool is not used to determine how much actual correction needs to be made for adjusting the toe-in. You can use the string method or other methods for that. The purpose is to use it to make the exact same correction on both sides of the car. Otherwise, your steering wheel will not align properly when the car is going straight ahead. This tool can also be used when replacing a tie rod to determine the exact number of turns to make when reinstalling a new tie rod.

The point is not missed. How do you know how many turns to make when you do not know what your baseline is? It's like solving for X, and you don't even know what Y is.
Doing alignments and replacing parts is two different things. All you need is a paint marker for what you're saying and that will get you just as close, but you don't have a proper alignment still.

Please no one make fun of me, but does this do the job of a digital protractor? Can you use this to find the angles for moulding? I'm having trouble seeing how it could be used for that.

Quote from firstis :
I have this, the accuracy is way off, 90 is not 90, 45 is not 45, and the calibration does nothing.
I have it and it's easy to calibrate, zero out relative to an existing "level" surface, and generally all around fairly dead on.

Maybe you ought contact Klein? I tend to use it often and have hand no trouble setting it on my table saw, zeroing, then stick it magnetically on the blade and adjust to some fairly odd angles and I haven't been misled by that happy little orange box. My brain doing offhand division of a 45 degree by 4, but not the box. Peace

Agreed. I set mine to 750 C only. Best way to check for the battery. If it explodes, ya hit the jackpot!

As an update, I purchased one and it arrived immediately. Feels much higher quality than the Wixey and the screen is alot nicer. Happy with the purchase.
