I think those are probably better than the $7 digital caliper... those I just worry the electronics will stop working one day for no reason...

Man, I didn't realize there was such scrutiny for 'Digital' calipers.

Hahah, I suppose so.
It's alright, have compared these to my brothers Digital Mitutoyo set (same size, similar configuration) and they seem good enough to produce usable results.
I didn't see any discrepancies between the two. The Mitutoyo's cost over 100 bux.

Sugar is a poor choice, as you end up crashing a bit after it wears off. Not worth it IMO.
I say just bring water to hydrate, get good solid sleep the night before, and have at it! It's not like you're in a competition/event, and need the highest possible performance you can get.

Yeah, I'd pick one up for sure, LOL!!
Oh, I sold my Duratrax Digital Pirnaha, ha! So now I can feel justified for getting those chargers from Tower..
Need to wait for Tim's power supply to test them out, though...
