HERSCH LEM 150 Laser Measure (Digital Camera with 4X Zoom, Bluetooth + App, Rotating Colour Display with Touchscreen, 3D Measuring, tilt Sensor, Ni-MH Batteries, IP65, Measurements up to 150m) 841923

So I hadn't heard of Hersch before, but was looking to replace an old Disto D8. I suppose I'm a professional user - use this to do house surveys for valuations and homebuyer surveys, and measuring up floor plans, occasionally a bit of marking out, measuring roof pitches, etc. Seems like the Hersch is a German design (lots of German and equivalent English on the box) but made in China. The Hersch comes with rechargeable batteries and a USB cable so thats a nice touch, but if your batteries go flat in the field you can simply put in 3 x AAA ones and away you go. Its easy to use and although it doesn't have as many buttons as my old Disto the touch screen menu allows easy use and it has the minus / subtract function, built-in zoom in camera for long distances and outdoor use. You can also measure angles and do trig stuff etc so I think it has all the functions of the old Disto. It doesn't have the fold out gadget that enables you to measure from an internal corner but I don't have a problem with that. Also I haven't used the bluetooth part as I am an old fashioned pen and paper guy. Theres a free app which I guess you can start drawing CAD plans in the field with, haven't tried that although am a bit reserved about that as when measuring old buildings, you might want to round up or down to the nearest 10mm or so. The unit feels robust and looks well made. I'm thinking I've had a bargain and saved a lot of cash over the Disto equivalent. Measuring accuracy is pretty good also.

This unit is very easy to use and worked well in most situations. However, since I was predominantly using it outdoors in daylight I found that it struggled to give a reading in bright sunlight.

Excellent piece of kit, saved so much time measuring outside in sunlight, even started to drive away from a fence and managed to measure it from the car using the screen camera view from some distance away.

Very good product. I use a Disto for my day work and fancied trying another maker. Was a bit fiddly first off using the menus when in the field but the feature on it make it more then worth while. We are now thinking of buying a couple of these for work.

Can't use the screen while using the laser. Going back to Leica.

An excellent lazer measure easy to use & I found it very accurate

Works fantastically for a great price

Great product does exactly what is advertised. Excellent tool for long distance measurements.

Cet appareil est idéal pour les relevés extérieurs. Fini de chercher le point laser.

Ricevuto nel tempo segnalato. Utilizzato anche oggi in pieno sole per misurare l'altezza dei fili di un elettrodotto con la funzione pitagorica (con ausilio di un cavalletto da fotografia). Risultato perfetto. Leggero maneggevole. Consigliatissimo

Preciso, práctico y Fácil de usar. Pero a mayor distancia de 50/60mts. da un mensaje en pantalla diciendo que la superficie no es apropiada, (sea cual sea la superficie).

Ich arbeite seit bestimmt 20 Jahren mit Lasermessern von Leica über Bosch Preissegment (250-500€) habe ich schon mit verschiedenen gearbeitet. Nach dem Kauf und der ersten Verwendung des HERSCH LEM 150 muss ich sagen das Gerät ist trotz umfangreicher Möglichkeiten sehr einfach zu bedienen und liefert schnelle genaue Messergebnisse. Noch dazu finde ich den Preis unschlagbar. MFG Armin Huth

Ho acquistato questo prodotto per utilizzarlo all'esterno. Deve essere proprio buio per misurare, anche se provvisto di telecamera di giorno non sono arrivato a piu di 30 metri...n
