The Titaner Tiroler 2.0, the latest innovation from Chinese titanium EDC specialists Titaner, is set to redefine the way we measure distances. This coin-sized measuring tool, available for pre-order on Kickstarter, offers numerous improvements over its predecessor, making it a versatile and effective tool for various measuring needs.
The Titaner Tiroler 2.0 functions by using precision-machined titanium rings that click with each revolution as it rolls along a surface. Each click represents either 10cm or 5 inches, depending on the user's preference. The tool also features a viewing window that displays additional precise measurements, such as fractions of an inch, allowing users to calculate the total measurement by combining the clicked amounts with the displayed fraction.
One of the key upgrades of the Titaner Tiroler 2.0 is its PTFE-infused lubricating filament system, which enhances the smoothness of the wheel's rotation. This improvement makes the measuring process more efficient and enjoyable to use. The tool's viewing window has been moved to the top of the outer ring, making it easier to read measurements while the tool is in use. This change also improves the visibility of the measurement display.
The Titaner Tiroler 2.0 features a removable silicone O-ring around the inner ring, providing better traction on surfaces like glass and metal. This feature reduces the likelihood of scratches and improves the tool's usability on various materials. The bearings are enlarged, contributing to a smoother rotation and more precise measurements. The clicking sound of the wheel is louder, making it easier to keep track of measurements audibly.
For those seeking customisation, the Tiroler 2.0 is available in blue, yellow, and five different O-ring colours. A glow-in-the-dark O-ring option is also available. The tool is seawater resistant, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environments. Additionally, the Tiroler 2.0 can be used as a fidget device due to the improved clicking mechanism.
The Tiroler 2.0 aims to fix issues with the original model, which raised nearly $250,000 on Kickstarter. Early bird pricing for the metric version is $55, and $65 for the imperial model. Delivery is estimated for September. This compact, durable, and easy-to-use tool is set to become an essential addition to any toolkit, offering an analog approach to measuring distances that does not require a digital interface or a phone.
This compact, durable tool is not only a redefined measuring device but also an integrable style statement, as it comes in multiple color options and a glow-in-the-dark O-ring. The Tiroler 2.0, with its enhanced technology, such as the PTFE-infused lubricating filament system and enlarged bearings, complements your smart-home-devices and gadgets, advancing the seamless integration of technology into our daily lives.
