So I see where it calculated the surface area of a wall that was elevated and not easily accessible. I assume it should be able to just do height or length as well. Can anyone confirm?
I bought a Hilti PD-E . It has a integreated compass. It Shows the degree in vertical Modus. And in horizontal modus you can pic the short distens to the wall. This will be the 90°
i'd love to have a tool to measure distance indirectly without having to point it at 90° afterwards.... it can be done with a distancemeter and a 6 DOF IMU knowing the angle between both measurements.....
john smythe it's not to save me from pressing buttons, it's that I need to measure pipes remotely, and all those laser distance meters need a perpendicular measure, and that's not always possible, and even if it is, if you don't have it perfectly perpendicular it affects it's accuracy a lot....
fair enough. I only ever use them for estimates. When it comes to installation tapes are far quicker and convenient and everyone has one. Our pipes only come in 6M lengths so tapes are more than adequate. Now that I think, measuring a section of pipe to be cut with a laser would be way more trouble than it's worth, possibly requiring 2 people
Great product!!! Would buy again.
It looks great but is it useless outside?

how do you know that you are pointing exactly at 90 deg?
Rishabh Shirke I am waiting for the answer of this question since 1 month..... how can he be Sure, that he is pointing in 90° ...

You simply go by eye unless you need a more accurate measurement then hold a framing square at the rear surface and follow the 90deg straight
In Bosch GLM series it shows spirit level like bubble in screen..by using this function we can level 90 degree
how to measure angle.... left to right if i am at center
Can I calculate elevation and azimuth using this tool? Basically i want to get blockage zone on an active satellite antenna.
Thanks
How can I measure horizontal length indirectly???
It has the Cosine feature he uses it in the video to show the horizontal length.

yes, it's hard work pressing buttons

how to measure outer and inner length of elbow
I test my laser measure with 3 other and is out 3mm how can I calibrate my AEG laser distance?
is there machine which measure in exact mm wall to wall iam alluminium window maker in mumbai i take mat by tap in inches n 13/16 ect
Does anyone know of a 90-degree Target that a person could put on a 2 x 4 and use this like a tape measure?
No sound
Is this tripod mountable?
I haven't seen that in any ads but I would like to know that answer as well
how exactly do you know what your pointing at? it there a laser res dot or something
Hi, yes there is a small Red dot to indicate where you are aiming.
terrible example on how to use the device accurately, holding the device with your hand?
