5 out of 5 stars An excellent measuring device   August 14, 2008

Bosch DLR165K Laser Rangefinder Kit

I found the DLR165K to be a well constructed, easy to use and very accurate. The instructions are excellent (apparently no translation to English involved). The device measurement reference options are very handy and provide accurate measurements under a variety of situations. Further, for those having a good eye for a 90 degree angle, indirect horizontal measurements using the Pythagorean Theorem feature (intended for measuring heights) can be made with a fair degree of accuracy (accuracy depends on the accuracy of forming the 90 degree angle). Overall, an excellent tool for measurements up to 100 feet without a helper.

This cute little device works well, as well as the somewhat bigger A3 and D3 and seems to return reliable numbers in return for a LOT less space in my cave pack. Don't know about durability yet.


5 out of 5 stars Great for Real Estate.   August 2, 2008

I am a real estate appraisers, this is a GREAT TOOL.. It can even measure to glass windows. It triangulates, which is great to find out the measurements of walls you can't get to(rosebushes). Anyways, I have nothing but positive things to say. I got a $20 rebates from Bosch's webpage that only took about 2 weeks to receive. Great. One thing, this has not taken the place of my tape 100% but it has sure made measuring easier in some areas.

This laser works well, except the laser point is sometimes hard to spot on a sunny day.
