Import Tips
• Include light intensity specs to confirm stroboscope function; pure tachometers may shift within 9029 subheadings
• Ensure laser safety certification for non-contact models to avoid 9013 optical instrument review
• Declare battery type and voltage, as hazardous materials regs apply to lithium-powered units
