I read a magazine test (standing in a grocery--I can't remember which mag) of them and they were very unreliable. The set that they tried had readings all over the place.

I don't remember the specifics--just the lesson. Not something you want to spend money on :smile:

While it does not fit in a pocket protector as well, its much more accurate for $8.99
