PREXISO Laser Measure, 265Ft Rechargeable Laser Distance Meter with Multi-Modes, Backlit LCD, and IP54 Rating

The quality and ease of use is just as good if not better than some of the most expensive units. It's accurate and has three positions from which you can measure, top, bottom and center. And because it's small enough to fit into the palm of your hand makes it portable.

I bought this laser to replace my tape measure and make the most exact cuts I could. I’ve used it to get heights for building walls in basement finishing jobs and also to cut baseboard to exact size. Its super easy to use and very accurate. It offers real time measurement up to 265ft. It will also store a measurement so you can get another length at the same time. Durable, compact little unit. There are 6 laser measure modes, include single measurement, continuous measurement (with Min/Max function), area/ volume measurement and Pythagoras Measurement. Three measure references. It comes equipped with Li-ion rechargeable battery and USB charging(comes with a USB cable). Device will automatic shutdown at 120 seconds if not in use. Very accurate, I must said unbelievable accurate ±1/8 inch; Press the UNIT button to switch units between meters, feet or inches. Up to 30 records can be saved and retrieved, manually delete data; It also has a mute button to turn on/off the beep. Hanging crown 51/4 getting an accurate reading is important using this Prexiso laser reader I was able to record An accurate reading and cut the crown to a perfect 5/8 return twice. So I can move onto my next project and include crown as one of my line of expertise. I do recommend this to anyone that do remodeling it makes the job easier.

This thing is awesome for general volume measurements (mainly room size) but the Pythagorean mode lets you measure the length of anything. You just point at a spot far away from you and then turn the laser to a point perpendicular to you and voila. I tested this on a credenza and the measure came out exactly the same as a standard tape measure. The history feature is nice to save your measurements and I love that this is USB-C for standard charging (no replaceable batteries to worry about!). Overall great little measuring tool that will make measurements a lot more accurate and easy.

Pros- Rechargeable, tripod-compatible, level bubble, good set of useful functions, multiple unit measurements. Perfect size for me. So-so - Can continuously measure but a bit finicky. Cons - no magnet, no lanyard nor holes for it, no case; needs option to increase font size, make it bolder. Worst - Totally unreadable outside and no way to pump up the backlight.

Battery lasts forever, so easy to use, very functional
