I need a tachometer for checking motor and spindle speeds, any recommendations?
It’s not something I’ll use a lot and I don’t want to spend too much. I’ve seen a few on eBay around the £25-30 mark but they’re direct from China and I’d rather have it before November.

I was thinking of the contact type with the rubber tip as I’ve used them before, but most of the seem to be the laser type. Anyone use the laser type and know of any issues / drawbacks?
Alternatively I’d be happy enough with an analogue gauge, any makers to look out for used?
Thanks
