Laser Measurers
Laser measurers are small and easy to hold
devices used to determine distance
and length.
Using a laser beam, you simply
aim to the
point you wish to measure and
receive a precise
measurement. Because prices can
range from
about $30 to very expensive,
here are some
things to consider before purchasing
one:
- Expensive models are generally for
- professional and scientific purposes
- determining lengths of less than a foot to
over 300 feet
- determining very accurate measurements, with
some models accurate to 0.125 of an inch
- determining many computations, with some
models storing 10 or more values and constants
with calculator functions to find area and
volume.
- Less expensive models are generally for
- everyday uses such as measuring rooms, home
projects and finding room areas
- determining lengths of a foot to 50 feet
or more
- accurate but less precise measurements
- often are a combination of measurer and level
units
Accessories you might consider
purchasing
are:
- carrying case with room for spare batteries
- wrist strap to keep the laser measurer handy
and safe from falling
- red laser glasses to protect your eyes
