    Not sure what you consider decently priced but i have this and its awesome. $50 isn't too bad imo.

    Ive had it over a year now. I would say its very good, though ive never actually tested it to check the exact accuracy. If you can think of a way to do that then let me know lol...? I find myself using it for all sorts of random stuff. Its actually a pretty handy tool to have around. My stepdad has borrowed it a few times even haha.
