Okay, I have a Frankford Arsenal Digital Caliper. It has worked well for the 2 years I have had it.
Yesterday I was going to load some new rifle rounds. I opened my caliper box and the instrument was going crazy flashing from one measurement to another. I pushed the on/off button to try and turn it off and nothing happened. So, I took the battery out thinking this would create a reboot situation similar to turning off a computer. When I put the battery back in, the same thing happened.
Simple solution, buy a new caliper which I did. But my inquiring mind is still wondering what could have gone wrong while the instrument was safely stored in it's case? Anyone have any ideas?
