How accurate is a digital tape measure?

Accuracy
Measurement Lists

Accuracy that only exists on the display is worth little if the number then gets copied twice before it reaches a saw. The T1M Utility matches the printed blade at the reading and holds over a thousand saved measurements, so the figure you cut from is the figure the tool took. The error most crews actually suffer is transcription, and a saved list removes it.

Accurate enough to match the printed blade exactly. Zoomed in on the scale here, the digital readout and the markings both show 78 and 3/4. Beyond the reading itself the tape stores over a thousand measurements at a single button press, so accuracy on the display also means accuracy in the list you end up cutting from.
