PCL DTGD104

A plastic probe and the smallest LCD display on test didn’t help the PCL, and things got worse in our drop test – the battery fell out. The DTGD104 was accurate to within half a millimetre of our MoT-approved gauge, but there’s no mention of the 1.6mm limit on the instructions or the gauge. The final nail in the coffin was the price – it’s more expensive than the near-identical Laser 4262.
