My first measure with Bluetooth.
The unit works very well and appears to be very accurate and if you are old like me it can be set to Imperial units e.g. a reading of 8’06” 11/32 or of course metric units.
I have noted the app defaults to metric but can be changed under the settings menu, see my picture. Using Android 11 on a Samsung device.
It can of course not only measure distance but is a level and can also measure area.
The app just finds the device, no need to go to the phone pairing menu and you can tap the readings and paste them into a note.
The app has other functions that I have not tried.
Works off 2 x AA’s which are provided and has a tripod style mount on the rear.
Colour display is easy to read.
I’ve had this for a few weeks now and have used it to check measurements and angles on a building project that was started with a standard tape measure. It has a host of features, many of which I’ve not had a chance to use, including calculating lengths from indirect measurements, a built-in level that also calculates angles (very useful for determining the angles of my project roof line!), and calculating wall areas and room volumes.
There is an app available too that I haven’t tried yet, but the device is bluetooth enabled so measurements can be transferred instantly to the app for recording, planning, etc.
I’ve dropped this a few times onto concrete and wooden floors with no ill effects, and it’s waterproof and dustproof too, so can be washed after messy jobs, and will withstand rain. drops in puddles etc.
The display is clear and very easy to read (it’s similar to the old candy-bar or feature phones of the early 2000s) and the menus are pretty easy to navigate once you’re used to what each icon means, though there are quite a few layers sometimes to get to the function you want.
There is only one small drawback and that’s that the laser has to hit something in order for the measurement to be made – you can’t use this to, for example, mark off lengths of wood like you can with a normal tape measure, but then that’s not what this is intended for.
One impressive task this device did manage was to accurately measure the length of my garden at over 40m!
It is more expensive that some of the laser measures here, but given the feature list and the bluetooth integration, along with the Bosch name, it’s probably worth the investment for a professional.
What is it?
This is a professional grade laser measure, it shoots a green laser for better visibility and and measures up to 50 metres! It’s a rugged little too packed with really helpful features, a bright, easy to view screen and it’s IP65 rated (condensation & water spray).
How is it?
It’s certainly durable! I have always had confidence with Bosch products but this is my first experience with a professional grade product from the German brand. It feels super sturdy in the hand, like it has a lot of protection around the product itself to save itself from inevitable drops and knocks.
The laser measure is surprisingly simple to use and I am a DIY novice. Out of the box, measuring distances is so easy and a huge time saver for longer distances. I was able to map out the rear garden for builders to help plan its renovation in next to no time, the memory bank functions help with historical measurements.
Flicking through the other functions I particularly liked the levelling tool which saves space for storing a spirit level, while the tape measure tool proved extremely useful in the kitchen while we were measuring new spaces. The green laser is very bright so it is really to see even from afar.
The supporting app is really handy to plot out floor plans and measurements, you can even take photos and annotate on them, creating a builder’s digital workspace which is so useful! I’m still learning to use the rest of the functions, thankfully the Help mode has animations that show me how to use them best.
Conclusion/Verdict?
A crazy good tool which has reduced time and increased productivity. It isn’t a cheap product but this is reflected in the quality. This is a pure example of avoiding the ‘buy cheap buy twice’ situation people often find themselves in. Highly recommended!
I received this item through the Amazon Vine programme. A very impressive professional laser measuring device: this is a green laser so much more visible outdoors/in sunlight. No bigger than the usual size of laser measurers but packed with additional features.
Multiple language display, bluetooth connectivity and an app that will allow you to store details. Area and volume measurement, and a tripod mount. (I have to confess I haven’t gone through the app in detail but I understand that you can calculate quantities required in relation to area from within the app.)
The device has an electronic level display with a vibrate warning if it’s not level when taking a measurement.
Runs on two AA batteries, which are supplied.
Has a good grippy rubberised surface and has an optional lanyard supplied.
Is water and dust resistant to IP65 and is proof against drops to 1.5 meters.
Comes with a decent quality nylon case.
Priced at time of review at 214.90 it’s price reflects the technology involved and is intended for professional users rather than DIY types (like me!). A top-of-the-line bit of kit.
The menu navigation is very good and if you hold the measure on its side the different options are also displayed.
You get an audible noise and a buzz when the measure has been successful.
Very robust with rubber on all sides providing excellent grip.
It also has a hand strap.
An excellent bit of kit.
