I've used the Shimpo DT series tachometers for many years. They are very dependable and rugged and have never had any issues with them except for once when the batteries corroded. I find that the attachments provided with the Shimpo cover most of the situations where you'll need to measure speed, RPM or whatever. Shimpo would be my first choice when buying a tachometer, but that's really all I've ever used.

The unit I have now was bought from Automation Direct.
 
Have used Shimpo combination tach with no problems. Very reliable.
BUT the one you have selected is a Non-Contact version only [requires sticking piece of reflective tape for measurement].

Though more expensive I would recommend a combo tach with both Contact and Non-Contact features.
