Hello again! Welcome back to another edition of Toolbarn’s Tool Spotlight. This feature takes a look at one of Toolbarn’s best selling tools and talk about what that tool has to offer. This week, we take a look at Bosch’s GLM15 Laser Measure. Since so many are picking this up, let’s take a closer look.
What It Offers
Bosch’s laser measure is a simple, one-button device used to measure anything you need. Once you press the button down, a laser projects from your device onto a solid object…allowing you to measure accurately up to 1/8”. It’s compact, lightweight, and has a range of up to 50’. It can also switch between standard and metric measurements.
Genius in Simplicity
Many other laser measure devices sometimes have large instruction manuals and use a menu system to program specific settings into the device. Bosch’s laser device has none of this and simply allows you to press a button and it turns on.
The blinking symbol in the top left of the display tells you you’re in a continuous measuring mode. If you want to switch to metric, all you do is hold the button down as you turn it on and it will cycle between metric and standard. To get the most accurate measurements, the laser tools needs to be on a flat surface, but is still good when in your hand.
