Good value for money at SPV. The manual supplied with the device succinct and not very clear, fortunately we find explanations on the internet.

Received on schedule, the tensiometer had been well packaged. The instructions are missing in Italian, but its operation is simple and intuitive. I'm happy with the purchase.

Good product but sometimes difficult to read on fine adjustments

It is not comparable to the Loos & Co model, but for the price it fulfills perfectly.

Perfect
Exactly what I needed

... makes it possible in any case to measure the shroud tension in specific given relations. To what extent the measurement then corresponds to a normalized state is a matter of trust. I recommend buying and using!

Spring is very tough and measured data is unstable.

Easier than using a folding rule
The shroud tension gauge can't keep up with the precision of significantly more expensive models because it's not very robustly constructed. Nevertheless, it can be used to tension the rig repeatably and accurately. The price-performance ratio is excellent.

Very useful with a little practice, quality not convincing
It's a bit fiddly to get reproducible measurements, but it works. I haven't calibrated the readings though.
The part is poorly punched out of sheet metal and simply riveted. The main problem is that the sheet metal is actually too thin and can therefore easily bend across the actual measuring direction.

Useful for a symmetry control or a doubt for example, but not precise enough for a careful adjustment. Measurements are difficult to reproduce

by Henrik R. Flag of Germany 5/31/2018 Verified purchase Variant: 14303
As a result, and due to imprecise guidance, there are clear measurement inaccuracies, multiple measurements with different results.

Perfect to balance his rig, even if the precision is only relative.

pity that there are no instructions in Italian
mediocre and not complete
Patrice G.
by Patrice G. Flag of France 12/6/2018 Variant: 14302
No precision and no notice in French
It does not serve much, because, depending on how you put it, you will not have the same tension at the base at all ... - If you put it very gently, you will have a measurement - If you put it faster, you will have another measure. Without even touching the setting ... Or, when it is in place, if you move the monitor, again the measurement will move ... So, it allows a very vague setting, exactly the same thing that 'by hand !!! I regret the purchase

Unreliable
A characteristic of a measuring instrument, in addition to the precision of the measurement, is its repeatability. This instrument creates too much friction between the two parts and, depending on how much you press, after having tensioned the spring, as recommended, the measured value changes substantially.
