Bosch GLM80 265ft Li-Ion Laser Distance Measurer
Bosch’s GLM 80 laser distance and angle measurer is the advanced technological answer to making simple yet accurate measurements. With several measurement modes and features that make it both compact and user friendly, the GLM 80 makes it easier than ever for tradesmen such as electricians, contractors, painters, masons, and builders to calculate distance, area, volume, or angles quickly and with precision.GLM 80 Laser Distanceand Angle MeasurerAt a Glance:Backlit display with tilt-screen technology provides optimal viewing in all directionsIntegrated lithium-ion battery is compact and allows for more measurements per chargeSpecifications: Class II 630-670 nm laser diode and 2-inch to 265-feet rangeBacked by a two-year limited warranty when product is registered with BoschBosch's GLM 80 laser distance and angle measurer is equipped with a backlit display for prime viewing from any angle (view larger).Modes of MeasurementBosch maximizes versatility with the GLM 80, which is equipped to operate in multiple measurement modes depending on user needs. Indirect length measurement mode provides users the ability to determine inaccessible distances that are obstructed by objects or that lack a reflecting surface by applying the Pythagorean theorem. The minimum/maximum measurement mode comes in handy when evaluating the shortest and longest distances from a fixed point, making it ideal for use when measuring plumb lines (minimum) and diagonals (maximum). Its multi-surface area mode determines the total area of numerous separate surfaces with a shared length or height.Functional FeaturesThe GLM 80’s built-in tilt sensor adds another dimension of accuracy by calculating 360 angles in two-axis, meaning that it works accurately both horizontally and vertically. And between the tilt-screen technology (the display turns when the GLM 80 is turned more than 75 degrees and is also legible upside down) and the large backlit four-dot matrix screen, the GLM 80 provides optimal viewing in all directions. It automatically stores the last 20 measurements (both distance and angle) in its memory, including the individual measurements that add up to the result and the combinations thereof. And if one particular assessment needs to be permanently stored, users have the option to save it as a constant. Rechargeable via a standard micro-USB port, the integrated lithium-ion battery allows users to make up to 25,000 measurements per single charge.User-Friendly DesignThe GLM 80’s ergonomic design features four flat surfaces for the most comfortable fit in pockets or work belts, and its integrated lithium-ion battery makes its profile even more compact. Its tough design makes it drop-resistant up to three feet, and it’s protected against dust and water (IP 54).What's in the BoxOne Bosch GLM 80 laser distance and angle measurer, one lithium-ion battery, one charger, and one belt pouch.The GLM 80 is compact and lightweight without compromising on technology, making it convenient to carry and use around the job site (click each to enlarge).
