Macht was es soll und macht einen sehr wertigen Eindruck. Ich freue mich schon mit dem Gert zu arbeiten.
Einfach zu bedienen und funktioniert genau wie beschrieben. Sehr zu empfehlen!
Je voulais un telemetre qui face le job …le top et le niveau puis le cm d’une prcision pro
En a peine 2mm je savait manipuler
Je met je recommande celui-ci
Partiamo subito dai PRO:
Il dispositivo ROBUSTO, affidabile e ricco di funzioni (vedi foto e video).
Ormai lo uso spesso in cantiere e non si bloccato neanche una volta ( a differenza del modello preso in precedenza – bosh PLR 40 C – che consiglio invece per uso casalingo). L’autonomia permette di fare moltissime misure, a tutt’ora si scaricato di una sola tacca su tre.
Molto comodo l’applicativo per IOS e android che permette di collegarsi via Bluetooh anche se personalmente non ne faccio un gran uso.
Le funzioni sono molteplici anche se non le utilizzo tutte sempre comodo avere qualcosa in pi
Senza dilungarmi troppo, passiamo agli SVANTAGGI:
in una sola occasione, in presenza di tantissima luce ho avuto un po di difficolt ad arrivare alla misura (fatto il confronto con altro strumento molto pi costoso e anche quest’ultimo non riuscito a misurare la distanza). Per il resto, sono molto soddisfatto dell’acquisto.
Vivamente consigliato
Der Bosch Laser-Entfernungsmesser GLM 50-27 C erfllt seine Aufgaben sehr gut. Die Batterielaufzeit (2x AA) ist ausreichend und das Display hell genug um auch bei starken Lichteinfall Ablesungen vorzunehmen. Die Benutzerfhrung im Men ist verstndlich. Die verschiedenen Messprogramme sind leicht anzuwenden und werden vor Anwendung auf dem Display erklrt. Der rote Laserstrahl ist sehr gut sichtbar und die Messergebnisse stimmen mit den analogen Messungen berein. Als sehr angenehm empfinde ich, dass sich die Anzeige des Displays der Gerteneigung automatisch anpasst. Ein digitaler Neigungsmesser ist in dem Gert ebenfalls enthalten und war auerdem ausschlaggebend fr den Kauf. Ein rundum gelungenes Gert.
Perfekt fr att mta svra mtningar dr det r svrt med mttband. Bra fr att berkna yta nr man ska mla. Noggrann.
Mi fa risparmiare tanto di quel tempo che non avrei mai immaginato. Ho tutto sempre sul cell e ed facilissimo da usare l’unica pecca che non da poco visto che bosch, la retroilluminazione dei tasti oggi alle 17 non vedevo i tasti una piccola illuminazione sarebbe stata fantastica. Per il resto non ho nulla da dire app fatta benissimo e facilissima da capire, bisogna smanettare un po ovviamente ma facile e intuitiva.
Wir haben das Gert fr den privaten Gebrauch gekauft.
Wir sind sehr zu Frieden. Es ist sehr einfach damit, Rume zu vermessen.
Auch die App haben wir benutzt. Diese funktionierte bei uns auch sehr gut. Lediglich bei Rumen, die keine Standard Form haben, wurde hier das messen zur Qual. Denn Winkel und Lnge Mae mssen hier perfekt zusammenpassen, sonst knnen die Flchen nicht berechnet werden. Da hab ich so manches mal geflucht, bis ich die Zeichnung und die Messungen endlich so hatte, dass auch Werte rauskamen.
(Ich habe mich aber mit der Winkel – Mess- Funktion noch nicht vertraut gemacht. Vielleicht htte ich mir damit den ein oder anderen rger auch sparen knnen)
Leider ist mein Handy dem Regen zum Opfer gefallen und die Daten konnte ich nicht mehr sichern. (Lsst sich glaube auch nur als PDF exportieren, ein Import auf ein neues Handy ist glaube nicht vorgesehen.)
Just buy it, it’s fantastic. If you get wrong measurements then it’s because you tilted it. The tool is incredibly accurate if you use it properly.
One thing to note is that it does chew though ordinary alkaline batteries very quickly so make sure you carry plenty of spare batteries with you.
Es un medidor con relacin calidad prestaciones muy bueno. Recomendable comprarlo con la batera recargable. Aplicacin por bluetooth que ayuda a documentar y gestionar proyectos, planos, medidas… El color del lser es rojo y en interiores se ve fenomenal y en exteriores funciona bien, pero recomendable el modelo con el lser en color verde. Es ligero, muy resistente, se puede “mojar”, varias opciones de medidas, ngulos y tipos de reas. El inclinometro o nivel se muestra en pantalla al mismo tiempo que el resto de mediciones y funciona en tiempo real, permitiendo ajustar el punto de medida. La pantalla gira automticamente y es de fcil lectura, quizs algo mejorable el ngulo de visin, pero bien en general.
Hay muchos modelos y marcas, pero sin ir a un Leica, Flir o Wurth, tiene unas prestaciones y precisin muy buenas.
Zum schnellen Ausmessen von Rumen und greren Entfernungen habe ich mir dieses Gert von Bosch zugelegt.
Es ist klein & handlich und sehr einfach und intuitiv zu bedienen. Die Anzeige ist sichtbar, auch in hellen Umgebungen.
Die Zusatzfunktionen wie Flchenberechnung, Volumenberechnung, Wandflchenberechnung als auch die elektronische Wasserwage/Nivellierwasserwaage sind eine schne Ergnzung.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Gert.
Beste Anschaffung seit langem: Bewusst die Version mit Bluetooth gewhlt um das innere Kind zufrieden zu stellen.
Funktionsumfang ist enorm:
– Entfernung in verschiedenen Maeinheiten
– Flchenmessung
– Laserpointer
– digitale Wasserwaage
– …
Ich will das Gert nicht mehr missen. Gerade in Ecken, wo ein Zollstock unpraktisch wird, oder auf Entfernung ein Maband schwer zu handhaben ist – mit diesem Messgert hat man keine Probleme.
Und ich bin mir sicher, dass ich die Hlfte der Funktionen am Gert und der App noch garnicht erfasst habe, weil ich noch keine Notwendigkeit dafr hatte.
Weil immer wieder die Diskussion roter vs. grner Laser zu lesen ist: Im mig schattigen Bereich (laserpunkt mit dem Auge noch zu erkennen) ist die rote Laservariante vollkommen ausreichend. Bei strahlendem Himmel wird man auf 50m wohl weder roten noch grnen Laser noch sehen (und das Gert auch nicht)
Premetto che con la tecnologia ci vivo ma devo dire che, per quanto possa sembrare ridicolo, per usare a pieno questo strumento… bisogna studiare (e non poco).
Dopo innumerevoli valutazioni e con un critico passato di diffidenza sull’affidabilit di questi metri laser, ho deciso di spendere bene i miei soldi e prendere un prodotto di fascia professionale con l’innovazione della funzionalit bluetooth e l’app MeasureON (che realmente la parte pi complessa).
Come prima cosa ho voluto verificare la precisione ed imbarazzante quanto sia corretta la misurazione… al punto di dover dubitare del metro a nastro che ho usato come riscontro.
Meno affidabile la misurazione indiretta: nella modalit 90 gradi, la quota del soffitto (2.5m) sbagliata di 1 centimetro, su quella ad angolo aperto… lasciamo perdere.
Questo modello ha il laser rosso che comunque perfettamente visibile anche in ambienti molto illuminati. Il display a colori di buona qualit e leggibile anche con luce diretta. Il misuratore arriva correlato di custodia e laccetto. Il peso bassissimo, la protezione in gomma per gli urti risulta indubbiamente comoda e rassicurante.
Paliamo dell’applicazione: in tutti i video dimostrativi ufficiali si parla di funzione Cloud ma non disponibile in Italia (cambiare lo Stato di appartenenza in fase di setup, non aggira la cosa). Questo scocciante perch tutti i dati restano locali e l’unico modo per estrarli l’esportazione.
L’ideale usarla da un tablet affinch i bottoni e funzioni risultino pratiche. Con un po’ di pazienza, anche da smartphone si riesce… ma facile fare pasticci (soprattutto se si deve disegnare la piantina).
Complessivamente, sono molto soddisfatto dell’acquisto.
Habe das Gert fr die gesamte Familie bestellt. Ausgepackt, Batterien rein und angestellt. Die Menfuhrung ist super einfach und erschliet sich in den Grundfunktionen auch ohne Lesen der Bedienungsanleitung. Das Gert ist handlich und leicht und lt sich mit der Standart Klettschlaufe der Schutztasche gut und sicher am Grtel befestigen. Ich versuche bei den nchsten Arbeiten rund ums Haus den Gliedermastab weg zu lassen. Mal schauen.
Aufgrund der vielen positiven Rezensionen habe ich mich fr diesen Lasermesser entschieden, da ich auf meinen Baubesprechungen einmal die Woche ein schnelles Messgert, auch fr Lngere Strecken bentige.
Zudem ist die App richtig Praktisch gestaltet. Schnell ist ein Foto mit dem Handy von der Situation gemacht und dann kann es schon losgehen Mapfeile in das Bild zu ziehen und diese dann real auszumessen. ber die Verbindung zwischen Handy und Lasermesser wird die Distanz direkt bertragen und trgt sich von selbst auf den zuletzt gezogenen Mapfeil. So mache ich das mittlerweile recht hufig, da man sich die Handskizzen sparen kann, von denen man spter manchmal nicht mehr genau wei wie es drum herum aussah. Den ein oder anderen Sturz hat das Messgert auch schon ohne Probleme berlebt, weswegen es eigentlich volle Punktzahl verdient htte. Einziger Nachteil ist, dass durch das etwas griffiger geformte Gehuse es manchmal schwer ist zu wissen ob der Messer wirklich richtig an- oder aufliegt. Besser gesagt es kippelt gefhlt immer etwas
The unit is very well made, sturdy and incredibly user friendly.
The app however, is trash, editing is impossible, drawing walls is a terrible experience and the only remotely redeeming feature is that at least you don’t have to type in the measurements as they’re sent over bluetooth.
Furthermore, battery life when using bluetooth is appalling, and you will find yourself changing batteries far too often, for an app that really isn’t worth the hassle.
Buuuuut with that in mind, I still stand by the product. If you’re just looking for a good quality, reliable and accurate laser tape measure then you can’t go wrong. Just don’t buy it for the extra features because you really won’t end up using them.
Ich hatte bereits ein Vorgngermodell von Bosch und war mit diesem schon sehr zufrieden. Das Messgert macht was es soll, sie gut aus, ist robust und exakt, also ich kann es nur empfohlen und bin sehr zufrieden. Mein Vater hat es gesehen und hat sich sofort auch das Messgert bestellt.
This is an amazing piece to add to your armoury. Can do great things and send details to your phone to log at your convenience
Das Gert ist einfach super, es ist kompakt und sehr intuitiv zu steuern. Die Mglichkeiten sind mittlerweile super. Ich hab eigentlich nur einen neuen Laser gesucht der mindestens 2 Messungen im Display behlt. Dieser Laser behlt 4 im Speicher, somit kann ich 2 Fenster hintereinander messen und muss nicht nach jedem Ma schreiben.
Der Laser ist im Gegensatz zu seinen Vorgngern fast immun gegen reflektierende Oberflchen wie agileren oder Poliertem Granit. Er misst sehr schnell und sehr genau. Die Aufrechnung oder das abziehen von Maen ist kinderleicht. Wer will kann die unendlichen Mglichkeiten nutzen. Ich brauch einfach ein kompaktes, schnelles und zuverlssiges Gert. Und das ist er definitiv. Mein nchster Laser ist garantiert wieder ein Bosch.
Das Gert tut was es soll. Einzig und allein der rote Messknopf nervt ein wenig, da dieser nicht immer reagiert, bzw die Taste teilweise bis zu einer Sekunde gehalten werden muss damit gemessen wird.
Alle Funktionen erfllen ihren Zweck. Von der Taste abgesehen habe ich keinerlei Kritikpunkte. Gut verarbeitet und misst auf einen Millimeter genau. Probleme mit der Batteriehaltbarkeit hatte ich jetzt nicht. Ich benutze aber auch wiederaufladbare Akkus, da strt mich das nicht weiter.
Plus fr die App, auch wenn diese teilweise ein wenig fummelig ist. Das Teil ist allerdings aber auch kompatibel zu Magicplan, einer weiteren (und mmn. besseren) Mess-App.
Keine Ahnung ab wann sowas zu teurer ist. Ich wollte Qualitt, also habe ich mich fr Bosch entschieden, ohne zu wissen ob es einen genauso guten gnstigen Hersteller gibt.
Habe mich also darauf eingestellt mehr auszugeben und finde dieses Gert ist das Geld wert. Habe nichts zu meckern. Es tut das, was es soll. Ob es das Geld wert ist muss jeder selbst wissen. Ein Maband und ne Wasserwaage tuen auch was sie sollen.
Ho acquistato questo misuratore laser per necessit lavorative su medie distanze (10-20m), devo dire che lavora egregiamente e non ho riscontrato errori di misurazione. Come uso abbastanza intuitivo, ha un display a colori di ultima generazione, semplice gestire le impostazioni e decidere che funzione utilizzare. Esternamente sembra pi solido di altri modelli Bosch che si avvicinano al costo. Sono soddisfatto.
Gone are the days of not so accurate laser measure tools, this tool from Bosch has put paid to that.
This laser measuring tool from Bosch comes from their Pro range, having used the cordless tools from the Pro range and knowing that they are quite rugged then I would assume the build quality of this laser measure would be equally tough within reason.
This tool comes with its own pouch with a belt loop and batteries (2xAAA).
This measure is simple to use but comes with a very thick instruction book all the same that covers all languages.
Using this laser measure is a breeze, it is simply amazing to use and then there’s the Bluetooth connectivity, this connects the measure to an app on your phone called Measuring Master, once this is installed you can use the measure tool to measure and then view and store measurements and even calculate area/m3 on the phone and then store the results, it really is a cracking feature that means this Laser measuring tool is head and shoulders about the cheap alternatives.
The OLED screen on the measure tool itself is clear and easy to understand, the menus are clear and understandable, I particularly like the mode that displays a measurement as a traditional tape measure, it is also accurate when double-checking it with a tape measure. The tool can also be used as an inclinometer that displays any angle in degrees. The tool can also be used as a level, a traditional ‘bubble’ can be displayed, the modes are comprehensive and complete. In the unit, calculations can be done when taking measurements and also stored for future reference, area and square metres are easy to measure and calculate.
To put it simply, you can buy these laser measuring tools quite cheap but this tool from Bosch looks, feels and performs like its price tag dictates and will also be accurate which is everything.
Super laser et hyper prcis. cran en couleur et avec des menus clairs, prcis et mme un mode de fonctionnement ! Hyper lger et d’une prcision redoutable. Beaucoup de menus et de possibilits. Quelques fonctionnalits indites comme le calcul de distances sur les angles et toutes les nouvelles fonctions indites !! Bref un incontournable pour un bricoleur pro ou du dimanche. Le prix lev se justifie amplement !
As a standalone laser measuring device this one is great. Bosch has produces an uncompromising, functional, measuring tool that ticks a lot of boxes.
You get accuracy, the measurements from this device is spot on form 50 cm or 50m away. I have used a cheaper laser measuring tool that does not produce the same accuracy.
Functions. Not only does it measure, lengths, areas, volumes, angles, the display is clear with great contrast in all lighting situations, and it stores your last 30 measurements.
The clincher is the *measureon* app. Now I would not blame you if you don’t expect much from an app for a measuring tool, but I would wager that a huge chunk of the asking price is well worth it for the measure on app itself.
Not only does the app allow you to sketch floor plans, add photos and notes, but the data is easily exported to .jpg or .pdf, It is also really easy to use even on a smallish mobile phone.
This this feels rugged, logged rugged, and have survived at least 2 falls where I was sure it would be damaged.
Wie von Bosch gewohnt, ist auch dieses Gert gut verarbeitet. Es fhlt sich direkt nach einem professionellen Arbeitsgert an, der Spielzeugcharakter mancher Billigalternativen fehlt zum Glck.
Die Handhabung ist schnell erlernt, die Anleitung dazu ist uerst hilfreich. Die App-Anbindung (bei uns iOS) war auch kein Problem. Etwas unschn ist allerdings, dass man fr die Pro-Version der App nochmal extra zahlen muss. Vielen Nutzern wird aber die kostenlose Variante ausreichen.
Zum praktischen Nutzen des Gerts muss man wohl nicht viele Worte verlieren – so ein Ding kauft man sich ja nicht zum Spass, sondern weil man professionell bzw. hufige Raummessungen vornehmen muss. Und dazu knnen wir das Bosch-Helefrlein uneingeschrnkt empfehlen!
Straight out of the box (after you’ve removed it from it’s carry pouch), the unit feels well made and has a nice tactile feel due to the rubber casing which also aids it’s stated drop protection rating of 1.5 metres (untested as of yet!). After installing the two supplied AA’s, the unit was quickly powered on and I was greeted with a nice bright colour screen with decent viewing angles. The interface is fairly intuitive and it presents itself as a circular array of icons that you can scroll around and then drill down further if a function allows it. It will take a bit of time for it to embed into your memory but after that, it’s plain sailing.
Selecting a tool also lets you call up a simple help function that basically tells you what to do via a slide show of still images. It’s very basic but it works and definitely helps if your scratching your head from the somewhat scant manual. Speaking of which, my heart sank when I saw the thickness of the manual after removing it from the box, with me thinking that I had a lot of homework to do. As it turns out, it’s just a multi lingual affair that only runs to a few pages really.
So onto the function themselves and this unit really packs in the features. The default tool on first use is the standard distance measure tool which is probably going to be one of the most used. This comes with a super helpful digital level indicator so you know your completely flat level when you take your reading. You’ll get an audio cue and vibration feedback when the reading is taken, so even in a noisy environment, you’ll know it’s finished which is very handy as you’ll sometimes be focusing on where your pointing at rather than the screen. The unit also offers a continuous distance measure feature which lets you move the unit around with it indefinitely giving you the distance readings between the two points. Something to note within the options – you can set the point at which the unit takes it’s measurement from, so either the rear, centre or front of the unit which will should cover all eventualities.
You also get a two dimensional area measure, a three dimensional volume measure and with all these functions, you get a little graphic telling you what dimension to measure next followed by the calculated result after measuring them. Moving on, you have a spirit level that comes in two modes. Flat on it’s back, the screen will display a wide circle with a small blip inside that which rolls around depending on the pitch of the unit. If you’ve ever seen a g-force display from F1, it looks just like that. Turning the unit on it’s side then switches into a more traditional angle tilt measurement in degrees – it’s very nifty indeed!
Then we have the indirect (Pythagorean) measurements of length or height which as the name suggests let’s you measure a distance when you physically can’t do so using the standard straight distance function. There is a third mode ‘double indirect’ which measures a subset of the distance, again all with graphic prompts should you need them.
I didn’t unfortunately get an opportunity to test the Bluetooth enabled app as I don’t have a applicable device (I’m a dinosaur) so can’t offer any information on this aspect I’m afraid.
Maybe not applicable to many users but you can also purchase two extra accessories – a rechargeable battery pack and a tripod which screws into the relevant mounting thread on the underside of the unit.
So to conclude – It’s obviously a professional tool with a respective price to match, but if your needing to rely on a tool to give quick and accurate readings then this would be solid consideration especially if your going to be taking measurement day in, day out. Definitely a much quicker alternative to walking around with a very long tape measure!
Most people have heard of the Bosch name and have used at least one thing made by Bosch, with most, if not all products branded Bosch being well made and do exactly what they are supposed to and this product is no exception, so don’t let the size fool you.
This is small, 120mm by 60mm by 30mm thick with a 2 inch screen. But even though the screen is only 2 inches everything on it is easily readable and tells you exactly what it’s supposed to do.
When you start using it it can look a little complicated, flicking through the many options, from squared sizes to straight lines, distance measurements and even a spirit level too. With each measurement clearly shown on the screen.
Using it is simple, find the setting you want using the buttons on the front, then press the red triangle below the screen. The bleep then tells you a measurement has been taken. (depending on what settings you’ve chosen depends on how many bleep you hear)
It’s that simple.
You can even set to use the length of the unit in the measurement or not, so you don’t have to fiddle about trying to get the front end of the device where you want the measurement to start. Simply rest the bottom of the device on the start point and the length it taken into account.
It takes 2 AA batteries, supplied and can be bluetoothed up to your phone using the “measure on” app from the app store. (Don’t scan the QR code if you’re using google play as it tells you there’s no app as yet — just go to google play and input “measure me” app.
This comes with a good, strong carry pouch which has a strong Velcro belt loop to hold it in place. Plus a wrist strap.
This is well made, strong and light and can take some punishment, although try not to drop it on the screen as it’s not so tough there.
In all, a cracking little device which makes measuring long distances a breeze, and well worth the money.
As you can expect from one of the market leaders, Bosch has built this tool to professional specs, in my opinion. This laser measure has everything a professional tradesman would need. It measures distance from the tip of the tool or from the back. Using it, you can measure distance, area, volume of various shapes. You can measure the distance continuously, as you move the tool.
It also measures the angle of tilt and shows spirit leveller which I think is a cool feature as small change in angle can result in wrong reading.
It has Bluetooth using which you can pair it with your phone and use Bosch MeasureOn app to capture and save dimensions of floor and rooms. I am not happy with the App at all, I wasted 30+ minutes measuring the floor of a room. The room has few tight corner or cuts, I drew it on the app and saved. But when I opened it, the App had messed it up (like a corner was missing all together).
The build quality is top notch. It edges are protected with rubber. It is IP65 rated so the casing protects the internals against water and dust which one would encounter on build site. It comes with a pouch (to put on belt) and hand strap.
It is a small device but very useful and powerful. In my opinion, it is a top-level professional tool. The only let down is the accompany App.
Any measure, whatever it is for, needs to be accurate, otherwise it is useless. I have always preferred to spend a bit more on tapes etc and alway prefer to use the one tape on each job – just in case. For once I can happily say that an electronic device can be labelled professional simply because it does exactly what it is designed for and in a way that is as accurate as anyone could possibly want. For me this is perfect.
I may only be a DIYer, but I do like to get it right (first time whenever possible) and feel as if I have done as good a job as a lot of professionals and consequently use, whenever possible, professional equipment, which is why I have given this Bosch Professional Laser Measure the full 5 stars. It isn’t cheap but if you want/need quality which will give you brilliant accurate results then it will inevitably cost more.
Highly Recommended.
What a beauty! I’ve been using a laser distance measure for some time now. My latest one was also an Amazon purchase but at just 15% of the cost of the Bosch! However, quality is everything. I downloaded the Bosch Measuring Master app, even though it doesn’t have favourable reviews on the App store. I must say I had no issues with it.
The user manual is typical of items these days — tiny print — so I downloaded the user manual from the web in PDF format. It’s easier to have on my phone or iPad. It’s a Bluetooth connection anyway and I never had any problems there. I found the measuring of area and volume relatively easy using the app. It’s like all bits of technology — you just have to get used to it. In fact the whole thing is quite intuitive. You draw the shape of the room on the app with your finger and it clicks into place (see movie clip). As you then measure distances the diagram adjusts accordingly and the measurements are read out loud by the app. It’s good!
There is a system to compensate for tilt, you can use a tripod if you want to (it has the fittings) and it can measure a host of things (distance, area, volume, Pythagorean angles etc) as well as being used as a spirit level. All your computations are automatically stored so it really is a great bit of kit. Finally the carry pouch it comes in is great quality and will offer a decent level of protection.
It’s expensive but for the true professional it’s priceless.
I have used the red laser version of this product for just over a month on site in place of one of my older laser measures that I am passing down to a mate starting out, I have the following information for you.
Construction: Obviously this is a big factor working on site, your tools need to be tough enough to withstand the knocks, I have gotten away with mine falling off of a few saw horses onto concrete without any issues, there is enough plastic to keep the screen safe. The box says IP65 dust and water jet protection, I can vouch for the dust proofing but I haven’t yet dunked it into my tea so time will tell.
I have particularly enjoyed going back to a device that has buttons instead of a touch screen as my gloves rendered a touch screen pretty much useless.
software: The Bosch app is so far proving to be very useful for measuring out a room and saving the data to my phone, this cuts down on wastage from over ordering materials or scratching my head looking at a scribbled not at the builders merchants, bluetooth connectivity works fine with my aging galaxy phone.
Use: this has a max range of 50 Meters and a minimum of 50CM, So far I have found it to be absolutely bang on, the box says a + or – of 1.5mm, Placing the base of the measure against a flat surface and firing the laser gets perfect results, just make sure the wall you are aiming at has no curvature to it. The device will map volume as well, all very clever and intuitive with a little bit of experimentation. I particularly like the measure hold function which will allow you to set the measure to a distance specified by yourself (similar to just locking out a conventional tape at a set distance) this is very handy and saves me walking over or knocking a conventional tape. One feature I enjoy using is the spirit level function which has so far been great for putting up shelves , there is also an inclinometer in degrees.
As a side note this does have a battery display readout which is helpful addition that saves me trekking back to the van for batteries mid job.
Accessories: You get a set of batteries to get you started, a wrist lanyard and a decent pouch to keep things safe when not in use. The user guide is fine there is also a help function on the device.
I am really happy with mine, it does everything I want it to quickly and accurately, The app and software are also really clever and not just a gimmick.
Please hit the helpful tab if my review was of any use to you, many thanks.
Obviously priced for professional use, this has a huge amount of functionality especially when paired with the Bosch Measuring Master app.
The downside of packing so many features is that the 20 English pages of the thick multi-language manual are printed in a small font on flimsy paper. Nevertheless, to get the best from the unit you’ll need to take some time to read up. Fortunately the simplest use of measuring lengths is just one button. I found repeated measurements would only vary +/- 0.001mm.
When linked to the app, which was very simple by Bluetooth, you can record dimensions for rooms in a property, calculate quantities etc. The unit supports calculating area and volume. The unit does have on-screen help menus for these functions, but it’s simpler using the app and transferring each dimension measure for rooms from the unit.
The screen on the device is bright and clear, even outdoors. Resolution is akin to a feature phone from a years back. The user interface is pretty simple, needing only a few button to spin around the menus and select.
I found that taking measurements indoors was very simple as you can see the laser. Outdoors in the daytime, I could see the laser out to about 10 m. I was able to get measurement outdoors to 20m with the unit handheld, beyond that I think you’d need to tripod to steady the unit. There’s a standard tripod thread mount in the unit.
Other functions such as tilt and level worked fine.
The unit feels robust for job-site use with rubberised protection all around the case which also help with grip. There’s no marking on wallpaper etc. from placing the unit.
2xAA batteries (supplied) power this rather than USB re-chargeable.
All in all, if you need a measuring tool which has pretty much everything, has a real quality feel and a supporting app then this is recommended. Just set aside some time to become familiar with the unit and app before using on a job-site!
Der neue Bosch GLM 50-27C Entfernungsmesser, in der Roten-Laservariante ist super verarbeitet. Es ist schn robust gebaut und an allen Seiten schn gummiert, so dass er immer sicher in der Hand liegt. Es ist auch noch eine Handschlaufe mitgeliefert, welche verwendet werden kann.
An sich ist der Entfernungslaser fr den Funktionsumfang kompakt gebaut. Vor allem finde ich gut, dass auf ein Touch Display verzichtet wurde und auf eine reine Tastenbedienung gesetzt wurde. Denn wenn man Handschuhe an hat, kann man ihn immer noch super bedienen.
Die Menfhrung ist sehr intuitiv und wenn man den Laser quer hlt, wird auch noch eine Anleitung fr die verschieden Modi angezeigt. Dies ist praktisch, wenn man keine Anleitungen lesen will.
Zudem besitzt der Laser auch noch einen Vibrator und ein Signalton, welche bei erfolgreicher Messung auslsen, wen das strt, der kann das auch im Men deaktivieren.
Mein einziger Kritikpunkt ist der Display Typ, denn fr 180 kann man schon ein etwas hochauflsenderes Display verbauen. Beim verbauten Display kann man nmlich die einzelnen Pixel sehen, jedoch ist es dafr sehr Betrachtungswinkel stabil (man erkennt was, wenn man schrg drauf schaut).
Das Gert kann man auch per Bluetooth mit der Messure On App verbinden, dies geschieht problemlos. Jedoch ist die App noch sehr ausbaufhig, diese soll aber angeblich bald ein Update bekommen (Stand 11.02.21).
Fazit: Also mit diesem Laser kann man nichts falsch machen, denn er ist fr alle Verhltnisse ausgerstet/geschtzt. Ich kann diesen Laser nur wrmstens weiter empfehlen.
Currently fitting new wooden floors plus skirting boards, trim around windows and curtain rails (and doing the wife’s job of shortening the curtains) and fed up with trying to stop my tape measure bending in the middle, coming unhooked, etc. If you have ever had to measure more than half a metre you will know what I mean !!
Saw this little gadget on a deal and saw the accuracy of 1 mm and thought that’s good enough for everything I want. In fact a lot better than I get trying to hold the tape straight. How right I was.
My first thought after delivery was “It’s a bit heavy”. Turned out that was the manual. After the panic over a manual about 40mm thick. I then discovered it was in about 25 languages and the English was a few, not really needed, pages as its all a bit obvious. Just turn it on, point the laser and read the distance. Quick, easy and really accurate. A bonus is not having to write down or try to remember the measurement when I go into the garden to cut boards. Just read it off the display.
OK, Once software gets involved all sorts of clever options are available such as area, volume, indirect (clever) measurements which are possible to work out without the manual but if all else fails and you are male, go somewhere private and look at the manual. I am just happy that I can take straight line measurements without needing my wife to hold the end of the tape. Oh and of course there is an “app’. I have downloaded it but not used it yet.
The bottom line is that it’s useful, accurate, easy to use and easy to keep in tool box. I probably would not have paid full price but now I have used it the full price is worth the expenditure. It does not replace my tape measure but its a really useful addition.
I find the reviews of others help my buying decisions. If this has helped you please click the like so I know I am not wasting my time. Thanks
