Product Spotlight: New Aluminum Telemeter for any Wallet
2024-02-13
Our first Telemeter in 2016 was printed on plastic card stock, like a credit card. Ever since, some users missed the ease of simply slipping their Telemeter into their wallets.
Our latest Telemeter is made out of aluminum and is once again as thick as a credit card, ~1 mm (3/64") to be specific. Similar to the technique that is proven in thousands of our Dog Tag Telemeters, we use anodized aluminum and laser-engrave the scales by burning through the anodizing layer, revealing the naked metal, which, in our first batch of aluminum Telemeters has a golden tint to it, reminiscent of our old CNC-engraved brass instruments.
As opposed to our acrylic instruments, which are extremely robust and almost indestructible in day-to-day field use, the aluminum as well as its anodizing will scratch and patina over time. We are looking forward to the first pictures of patina and hand-repainted or modified scales. Bring nail polish!
