Ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in hand, this device is user-friendly and boasts a functional level feature. Although I haven't utilized the Bluetooth connectivity yet, I anticipate it will further enhance its versatility.
In outdoor settings, particularly over longer distances, some limitations arise, such as issues with harsh sunlight and maintaining stability for accurate readings. However, with the aid of targets and a tripod, I successfully obtained precise measurements even under intense Arizona sun, demonstrating its reliability.
Indoors, the device performed flawlessly, effortlessly capturing dimensions up to 69 feet without interruption. The laser's brightness is notable, although it does consume considerable battery power during continuous use.
Overall, while primarily suited for handymen and hobbyists, the BOSCH Blaze GLM50C proves invaluable for home renovations. Its accuracy, ease of use, and durability make it a worthy investment, enhancing efficiency and precision in various tasks. I regret not purchasing it sooner and highly recommend it to others in the field.
If this is something that you'll be using primarily outside, then there may be some better options since it's very hard to see the red dot outside and it doesn't measure that well in bright sunlight with distances over 20 feet or so.
The Android app isn't perfect, but it gets the job done well enough for me at least. Primarily, I use it to super-impose measurements onto a photo, something I had to use my Microsoft Surface to do in the past. This function works great as long as you're capturing from the device, and you can even employ min-max operations for more advanced measurements. If you're typing in measurements manually on the app it gets awkward, but still feasible. I love how you can organize measurements by project and label the pictures. I find myself referencing old measurements surprisingly often. Works well enough outdoors as well, though I don't think it would be powerful enough to use in direct sunlight. I've used it to measure out rooms and their features (windows, doors, etc.) and to figure out how long of a garden hose I'd need to buy to reach the corner of my yard. My dad was grateful he could use this to measure the height of his 18' ceiling.
Highly recommended product!
