Review on πŸ“ LM50 Laser Measurement Tool: Accurate 165ft/50m Distance Meter with Ft/in/M Switching, 2 Bubble Levels, and Large Backlit LCD Display by Andrew Schobinger

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I've always used Bosch but I decided to try this

, the coloring and layout looks just like Bosch after all! There is one small difference. The beep that can be switched off is annoying. The measurement has a split-second delay and a flash, unlike the Bosch, which is instantaneous. There are more errors than Bosch, but we're talking 1 in 15-20 measurements versus 1 in 20. I haven't tested the battery life yet because I just got it. It's slightly larger than the Bosch block I replaced. Almost the same can be felt in the hand. It is measured in inches by default, not sure why. I always set it to feet + 1/32". It's also available in feet, %, metric, and has a backlight. Pretty cool for half the price!

Pros
  • Linear Measurement
Cons
  • No Automatic
