[SML] Favorite Disto Tool

[JIM VOGEL]

I have a Bosch GLM 50C which I’m very happy with. Easy to use, works great, has an iPad app that records all the measurements, never had any problems with it.

 What’s your fav?


I’m not familiar with Extech...

I have a little Bosch thingummy  that’s alledged to be a disto, that never fails to disappoint. It’s only saving grace is that when it fails, which is inevitable, I’m not out too much money.

My go-to is Leica. My Leica Disto A5 has served me admirably on several tours. I suspect it’s been discontinued but I’m certain one can find NOS or gently-used examples for sale online or in eBay.

Bottom line: if you have the price of admission(and that can be surprisingly affordable), Leica is the Rolls-Royce of laser distos.

...And friends don’t let friends use Bosch. Just sayin’.
