    Is the little angle indicator in the top of the screen functional or just an advertisement?

      Bought a new angle indicator.

      https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07R12DZQ9...roduct_details

      Was only $16+ something.

      I have had a Wixey for tens of years but it has gotten intermittent and just frustrated the heck out of me. Not the battery or the battery contacts, it just sometimes jumps 20 degrees. It ate Batteries even when off but The back was always so hard to open to take it out when not in use.

      The new one is half the cost (even less if you consider inflation), and is lighted and takes AAA batteries instead of the lithium coin cell. More modes. Came in 2 days by Amazon Prime. It's about a quarter of an inch taller and wider and quite a bit lighter. but still has magnets. I think the 1/100th degree digit is totally unnecessary!

      No brand name, very generic.

      It's so nice to have tools that don't frustrate you to use.
