should have bought this year's ago!
if you're reading this, you're considering buying the gauge (and probably using feelers at the moment).
TLDR buy this gauge!
It has been a revelation! I setup a lot of guitars every week, and this not only makes the job easier - it makes it so, so consistent.
As a test, I did 4 guitars at what i thought was .006 relief using my usual feeler plus capo combo. Then I measured them with this elmer digital gauge - omg...the results were all over the place (one was even .011! )
Bottom line if you want to be sure you're dialling in a specific relief value, and want that to be the same every time- this is the only way!
100000% recommended :)

Easy and affordable
I purchased this because my eyesight isn't what it used to be and it's much easier to see than the straight edge I used previously. It's also way more precise so it saves time.
I'll also mention this is considerably less expensive than the other place you're used to buying tools from.
