Tiny and fast... but it broke after just a couple of months
// Edit: it served me about a couple of months and then it wouldn't switch on anymore. I didn't mistreat it in any way. Maybe I'm just unlucky with Fender stuff. //
First of all: The batteries are 2xLR44. It comes with batteries installed, but in my case they died after just a couple of uses, so be ready to replace them very soon.
Now about the tuner itself:
- It's really tiny, the same size as a tuning machine.
- It's very fast, compared to my previous tuner. Also quite accurate.
- The display is bright and clear.

Esthetic looks, quality below par, still like it
I like this tuner because it is barely noticeable, yet provides a clear image. There are a few downsides however.
1. I recently had the clip of one completely disintegrate on me. It just snapped, hinge broke, spring jumped wherever. Obviously not 'airplane grade'.
2. Battery consumption is surprisingly high and it takes these quirky cells that are hard to find.
3. Possibly because of (2) it turns off on it's own rather fast.
4. The lower E stops working once batteries get slightly low (I own several and they all do this)
So now that I have that out of my system, I'll go order another one because they're the coolest ones out there.

Does the job but...
Does what you intend to do with it. Handy, small and with a nice clip.
But... !
It is very slow turning on even when compared to cheaper tuners. Also the batteries on mine arrived pretty depleted already.
Wouldn't buy again. Albeit very small indeed there are other, better options for cheap clip tuners for the same price.
