    Snark SN-8 Super Tight All Instrument Tuner

    • Hope this is true, those little batteries ain't cheap!
    • Or at least I thought it did—as it turned out, its battery ran out, and the other (fresh, I thought) battery I had was dead too
    • It also has good battery life
    • Needs better battery life.
    • The battery died faster than I would have hoped for but since it's got backlighting perhaps that's expected.
    • Easy to see, especially when batteries are fresh
    • Good Tuner, very accurate but the power button is faulty in that it turns on while being carried during the case which drains the battery
    • The batteries are all fine
    • Easy to use, very reliable, long lasting battery life
    • The batteries that it takes are very easy to find and are relatively cheap
    • Came with a bad battery and an unreliable view screen.
    • I have had several others including Fisher, their batteries die instantly while this will last a year or more
    • I feel like I'm always replacing the battery
    • It should have a self-timer for shut-off, so it doesn't drain your battery.
    • Accurate and durable, I only wish it had an auto turn off because I keep accidently killing my battery.
    • Battery died 2 weeks later even though I turned off properly
    • Or at least I thought it did—as it turned out, its battery ran out, and the other (fresh, I thought) battery I had was dead too
    • I bought a Peterson clip on, the battery is cheaper and goes about six weeks
    • Battery dead upon arrival
    • Only problem is they eat battery's
    • My only complaint is the batteries that came with them didn't last very long
    • On one of them, the battery died (at least I'm assuming it is the battery - it doesn't work) after using it once
    • Wish it had a longer battery life because once the battery starts to weaken, the display gets dim and is sometimes hard to see if it is bright indoors (so, I always have a spare battery with me), or, if I'm outside during the day
    • I also wish the button that turns it on were harder to press down, because I find that these things turn on inside the case and burn the battery down prematurely.
    • It works EXACTLY as it says it does
    • Did exactly as i hoped it would and worked exactly as it said it would
    • Works as it is meant too
    • Works exactly as you would expect
    • And, when I held the tuning fork against the Snark, it immediately showed a pure "A".
    • Highly Recommended A+++++
    • Buy this tuner you won`t be disapointed!
    • Buy this tuner you won`t be disapointed!
    • If I miss the low E, might over tighten the string.
    • The Snark SN-8 works great, even though it sometime misreads the high E as an A if plucked too softly
    • My only complaint is that it has trouble picking up the low E during tuning
