Compared to brand competition one gets at an affordable price here the professional features such as Min / Max display, measure permanent, volume calculation, Pythagoras function, inter alia, at an affordable price.
Trust is good, control is better. So I created the first laser focused on a smooth surface with an obstacle, and the lower edge using geo-triangle created precisely to 50cm on the ruler and press the red test button. What was really surprised me: EXACTLY 0,500 meters. The relationship of trust was established and now I went to study the manual.
For easy user rich to start the simple measurement function (red button press) and the duration measuring function (red button and hold for 2 seconds), which continuously measures the current distance. About the Min / Max function lets you show the minimum / maximum values.
Measure at the right is (the lower edge) Pressed on the measurement object, and then the measurement button is always the trailing edge. When right Align also help the spirit levels in the lower part of the instrument.
The unit also controls the area calculation and volume calculation (good for heating forecast in old buildings) and may be a desired even lengths according to the rate of Pytagoras calculate :-). The functions are well described in English, unfortunately, a German manual is not included.
The first IKEA visit with the laser rangefinder was a revelation. Instead of ruler-gefuchtel It's now * beep *, * beep *, * beep * and you know, whether it likes it or not. I wish I had bought the earlier part.
An additional extras he also has a backlight, a handy and rugged casing and a screw for tripods (optional screw to a tripod) and a protective pouch. Batteries are also included.
So far I could not find anything negative, so I forgive 5 Stars.
