Features:
Backlit LCD display - Backlighting is very helpful when using the meter in darker environments. It is especially beneficial when being used in the evening, on overcast days, or even indoors. Most competing models do not offer a backlit display option which prevents windows from easily being tested at night. With the Tint-Chek +, windows can be tested at any time of day, and the results can be easily seen. The TC2800 is the only product on the market with a backlit display.

Increased resolution - The TC2800 displays measurements to the nearest 0.1%. This will remove the rounding errors that can occur with lower cost models. For instance, a window may have a VLT value of 39.5%, which could be less accurately rounded up to 40% on competing devices.
No mechanical lever switches - The Tint-Chek is designed with no moving parts which results in tremendous reliability and durability. This also means you can slide the glass into the opening in any direction, with no concern for damaging the lever switch or scratching the surface of the glass being tested.
All Digital, micro-processor controlled electronics - The TC2800 takes high-speed measurements shown on the real-time display. No drifting of values, as the TC2800 locks on one accurate result. The instrument will also turn itself off after several minutes of non-use which helps conserve battery power.
Built for accuracy and reliability - The TC2800 uses clever patent-pending techniques to remove any ambient light conditions that may be changing in the testing environment. For instance, stray headlights and cloud cover have been known to negatively impact the performance of older VLT meters that are on the market today. The meter comes from the factory calibrated to a NIST traceable standard.
Slimmer, pocket-friendly size and larger display - The overall size of the product is only 5" x 2.5" x 1". Most existing models on the market are as big as 6" x 3.5" x 1.5" or larger. This reduction in size makes the product easier to carry, handle and store. The TC2800 is so thin it fits comfortably into a shirt pocket. It also makes the device easier to slip around tight edges of a car window that does not open as far.
