Guitar tuner for spokes tension?

Cleaning up this morning I came across a tiny little guitar tuner. It has a clip that a assume clips on the neck or string then a digital readout. Not sure where it came from I do not play any instruments. But it made me wonder if it would work for spoke tension. I tour a lot and this is really small and light- I could easily put it in my tool kit. I build my own wheels and use a spoke tension meter (tensionmeter?) at home. I know I could never get close "plucking" the spokes by ear. Thanks in advance for your opinions.
