Have you been looking for a good, easy to see and use outdoor laser measuring tool for outdoor projects? Then this laser measuring meter I found is the answer to what you have been looking for. A laser measuring tool with a built in camera so you can easily see the laser even outdoors on a bright sunny day. I'll demonstrate how easy it is to use in the video.
Great review. I just ordered one for myself. Read in the marketing literature that this is able to store 100 "screenshots", apart from 1000 measurements. May I ask how we take the screenshots, please?
I want to use such a device with a plastic corner-cube reflector plate, which reflects THOUSANDS as much back in the direction of the emitter than a white paper-like surface. (See Lambertian reflector.) I want to measure 500, 1000, 2000 meters, with a resolution of 1 millimeter . Problem is, I don't think the device will 'wait for' such a delayed reflection, even when it arrives late.
Does this tool have the ability to use an offset in the distance measurement (not just add/subtract)? Using a fixed offset is critical for my use in outdoor sporting events.
That is great. They dont mention it in their tiny one page manual. I re-watched your video, but did not pick up any mention of being able to enter an offset for distance measurements. I have tried to contact them, but have not head back. I contacted Bosch, and none of their units have that simple ability. The only unit that i know for sure that has the ability to offset distance is the Leica Distro line $$$.@@ModernDIYProjects
After I made the video I found out that the names are interchangeable. It's an internal company thing. They brand it as S20 but then the item says S7. Go figure.
If you compare a high end Bosh that has the same features to this one I would still recommend this one. It is cheaper thus a better value. These things are all electronics inside so very little to go wrong with them. With Bosh you are paying for the brand.
