You are in hurry to obtain the dimensions of an object. You bring in the measuring tape, measure the length with it, you think you can remember the inches and the numbers that come after the decimal point. Next you measure the breadth and the result also is a “something point something” …..do you still remember the length or will you still remember it after measuring the height? You are now very much in need of a notepad and a pen because you realize you need to start all over again!

Avoid all the uneasiness as measuring gets easier with this tool. In addition to the usual measuring tape, there’s a built-in calculator with a pad and pen, all blended into one.What a relief ! You need not go searching for a pen in the whole house for just jotting down a few numbers. If required you can also use the LED based light that comes with it. This silver colored gadget is priced at $7.99 from HotRef.
