I hand hold a 1400m+ laser range finder for shooting... pretty sure you can manage one for 40m.Scote64 wrote: ↑ They're cheap and handy to have for making measurements in certain circumstances where you can't easily stretch a measuring tape. However stretching a measuring tape is more accurate - the laser measuring tool is not accurate enough for something like cutting a piece to fit. Also the range is a bit misleading - it's almost impossible to see the tiny laser spot at a distance much more than 30' in daylight, and indoors you would seldom be making a measurement longer than that anyway. You can do it, but it's impossible to hand-hold since the laser dot would be shaking around and giving you an inaccurate reading even if you could see it. You would need a tripod mount and binoculars.

That's different - you're trying to get an approximate measurement from anything in the right vicinity, not trying to make an accurate measurement of the exact distance to a specific spot. For shooting it doesn't matter if the reading is bouncing around between 500m and 510m, but for making a measurement of how to cut a pipe, it matters very much whether it's 30.25m or 30.27m.danascully wrote: ↑ I hand hold a 1400m+ laser range finder for shooting... pretty sure you can manage one for 40m.
