    I bought it from the last deal and found it really easy to use. Now one thing that might not be apparent is that it is really, really tiny. From the picture you'd imagine it's something huge, but it is smaller than the palm of your hand. If you are after something handy and easy to carry around, that would be a plus I suppose.

    • The 4th image is quite accurate. I have both this and the LS-1 for small DIY projects and they're good.

    • +1

      Yeah I got the LS-P which I think is the same size and thought the same thing when I got it, wasn't expecting it to be stick of gum sized.

      Haven't used much yet but seems pretty decent. Was about 2.5mm out which can be corrected in the calibration settings (though only by whole mm's so I guess is left 0.5mm out which can't complain about for a ~$20 gadget.)

  • Does this use USB Type C?

    • +3

      Micro USB.

    Why is does it come as $19.63 for me? Not sure on how to use this site.

    OK so this might seem silly but for those who’ve owned this — does it emit a laser dot? As it’s secondary task after it’s done measuring will be to entertain my cat..

    • +7

      Yes. It's designed for human and cats.

      • +1

        Confirmed

        • Whew good to know.

          One other question: does this coupon code BG2455 stack with other deals/signup discounts etc. as I've never bought from Banggood before..

  • so tempted to buy one…

    • +5

      Just do it, in the true OzB spirit.

  • +8

    I need reasons to buy this.

    Someone convince me

    • Get accurate bed dimensions for when you will be selling your bed.

      I was impressed by this kind of technology when a blinds salesmans came to provide a quote for roller shutters. Impress the next salesman with this.

      • +2

        I literally just came down to my PC from upstairs where I was measuring for beds!

    • The Jones family next door!

  • So this thing measures from the base and not the laser?

  • +1

    It’s telling me “This coupon only applies to specific products.“ am I doing something wrong?

    • +1

      Ask Banggood and they'll come back AtUMan.

  • +4

    Just bought one. Not really sure why? Thanks OP !

  • +1

    Warning, either I need to calibrate this or this doesn't measure accurately, it is random and is off 100% of the time.

    • +7

      i read this and still bought it anyway

  • +1

    Sadly BG2455 does not seem to work. I also get the 'This coupon only applies to specific products" warning. BTW Bunnings sell Bosch rangefinders for about $39, which isn't much more than the $29 for this uh, alternative brand, once you include the Banggood postage and if this coupon has expired.

    Of course, its max range is 20 metres, so may be inadequate for manhood measuring for some. Prob ok for making sure your new sofa fits though.

    • You've got the exact one linked in the deal from CN warehouse and logged in? As it still works for me.

  • +4

    Bought, dunno why

    I’ll grab one. It’ll be good fun to measure the internal dimensions of your house and 3D print the layout for LEGO mini figs to play in.

    • Apparently there is a Bosh model that takes measurements and bluetooths them to an app that makes plans up for you automatically

  • +3

    Is this only good for measuring a point in the distance? I.e. distance to wall. Can it be used to measure say the width of a table accurately?

    • Would have to put something like a book at the end of the table for laser to bounce back.

    • +1

      You can’t with this EDM device alone (you have to also use a calculator) but more expensive ones usually have a plus/minus feature where you would for example measure from the further side of a table to a wall, then subtract the distance between the table and the wall on the closer side. You can also use a sticky note to create a surface to shoot the laser at.

  • Thanks OP, bought.

  • Thanks OP, got one. Sounds like a good replacement for a tape measure from time to time.

  • handy for construction? thinking of gift….

    • +1

      Yes, but they're quite small so you would need quite a lot of them for building a house…

      • Yes. Anyone got practical experience with em?
        Thinking more tape still more useful.

      • +1

        haha, I had to read this twice to get it :)

  • +2

    This one came up cheaper for me and seems to have a few more features anyone own one? https://www.banggood.com/DANIU-Handheld-Electronic-40M-Laser…

    • +1

      Tips: Please aim the laser at the human eye to avoid injury

      If you insist!

      Out of stock anyway.

    • +1

      Is this one better?

      • +1

        Yes it seems to have more features, i bought it because for me it was coming up a few dollars cheaper then the one in the OP's deal.

  • +1

    always check the price of an item on Ebay before ordering from Bangood - years ago they were a very good online seller before they became extremely Greedy.

  • So is this good value? or just shows more that Ozbargains voting system needs to change.. people are justing buying to be part of it.. more waste?

  • I use one of these for work at least once a week, tape measures can be impossible sometimes - if the awards and reviews are true, it looks like a good unit, maybe better than the other cheapie I have (which I got as I found the pro expensive units no better)…. for that price it's worth a shot..

  • +1

    100+ up-votes. I am buying one

  • Edit - my bad - I had US$ set - sorry.

    Nearly the same price at Gearbest $18.99 + $1.75 postage.

    • That's the LS-1, not LS-1S (smaller battery and no continuous measurement)

  • Is this any good for measuring the distance to the next hole

    • +1

      If the next hole is less than 40m away.

  • Do not *need one..
    Still bought one..
    Always check with a real tape measure for important stuff…

  • +2

    With accuracy of +-2mm and distance of 40m its more a tape measure than rangefinder.

    Rangefinders are more like +- 1meter and distance of 600m

  • Still don't need one but I've always wanted one, and can't resist a good deal. Bought. :-)
    Forgot about PayPal insurance and forgot to uncheck insurance. $0.50 extra. Oh well.

  • Pointed it at the moon and it said 384,400 km. Seems too far.

    • Could you see the laser spot on the moon?

      May be you was pointing at uranus.

      • Could have been a black hole

    • BAHAHAHAHAHA!
      I would be impressed if it did say that, but I have a strong hunch its own laser signal would be too weak at that distance.

  • EDIT: Nevermind, saw it stated on the ordering page as "Shipping time:7-25 business days".. still, given there's no tracking it's a little worrisome!

    First time ordering from Banggood on 27 December — how long is the expected shipment? Even though I paid the extra 50c for 'insurance' I figured it'd have tracking but I haven't heard a peep other than 'it'll ship'!?

  • Thanks.

  • I got mine delivered yest. Amazing little piece of device I must say!

    • Got mine today. Super impressed.
