#cigman This looks like a cool tool I really like the fact it measures in both directions. I could have used this recently on a kitchen was trying to measure where I could.get to end walls so had to use tape measure to measure from each side to middle where I was able to access. I am definitely considering buying this tool
Yeah I think it makes it more versatile for sure. It’s not something you need every time.. but it will do what a regular laser measures does plus more, so seems to me that it’s the way to go. Good Luck 👍
I just did some testing with my CD60. It seems to be accurate and consistent at around 6 metres. But at shorter distances of around 1 to 2 metres it can be out by around 5 mm. The discrepancies are random. In the bi mode, it was bang on with the rear laser at around 6 metres and the front laser at around 1.8 metres. The other way around, the rear laser was out by 5 mm. Not impressive. My CM701 level is quite impressive, so far.
I’ve used it a handful of times along with the others I have for estimates and the readings have been fairly close between them. It has been at primarily longer distances. Thanks for sharing… always great to hear others experiences and it’s helpful for people making decisions. 👍 The Laser Level has been great for me so far as well. I use it far more often than this.
Im in landscape design and looking for something to take elevations around the property. I can aim the laser at the bottom of the brick wall or siding as my zero point. If the measuring device could take the measure from the building and another measurement from the ground under the device and with the angle you hold it... you can have the elevation from the bottom if the brick wall and where you're standing on the property.
Are you asking if you can do it? I believe so, but I will have to double check when I get back home next week for sure. I don’t have it on me. You can do it with many laser measurers, I just need to make sure before I tell you.
Hi I like feet and inches the bosh lasers have a rounding adjustment so you can set it to give you measurements in 1/8 of an inch as opposed to 1/16 th can you do that? As far as useful I just did a fireplace enclosure needed the floor to ceiling height to cut studs soinstead of getting on my knees on the ground with my bosh just stand there and shoot
This one doesn’t have that either. You are right. Even just going into rooms to measure I can stand in one spot and get all the measurements I need. No more walking all the way to each wall.
#Cigman I use the Bosch at work all the time, but would prefer a two plane if I had to buy this again. It saves your knees from measuring ceiling heights if you do that often. Would love to try this
I was just looking on amazon for one of these when i saw your video, was thinking of the klein or the bosch but now i kinda want this one. the magnet and that it does all those calculations would be super handy! #cigman
You may just get one for free 🤞… It seems to be as accurate as my Bosch so far. All the extra features sometimes makes you have to cycle through more things to get it how you want it.. but I think it’s a good tool so far. I have had Bosch for years with no issues. Would 100 % recommend those. Time will tell on this one. I have been using their 3 plane laser pretty regularly and it is holding up great. Good Luck 👍
The Bosch ones I’ve had over the years have all performed well… only time will tell on this one, but out of the box this one looks good so far. Good luck 👍
Yeah I think so. It is pretty similar in size and weight to my Bosch GLM 50 C. I remember it’s measurements are 4” x 2” x 1”… I remember because I had checked it to say it during the video and forgot 😂. It’s weighs very much the same as most measurers. Good Luck Buddy 👍👍
As always good info. I really like that vertical hole usage you came up with. I have a Bosch LDM, but this would be a bit more handy for a lot of measurements. I like that the angle finder is automatically on in the background and you aren’t forced into picking angle over distance. #Cigman
I’m sure there are other things for other people that it might even be more useful… I haven’t had it long enough to run into “this tool will do that” scenarios yet. I honestly probably don’t use my other measurers to their full potential. I do know that there have been plenty of times I haven’t been able to get to a good place to get a measurement that this one would have worked. I do think it’s a neat idea… I’m actually surprised none of the “big names” have one yet. Best of luck my friend 👍👍
Funny I watched a review for a Mileseey DP20 Bilateral Laser on Shop Tool Reviews 3 days ago. Kinda funny I’d never heard of them and then 2 reviews within a couple of days.
@@brianhall9019 I was the same way with companies contacting me. I didn’t know they were a thing then Cigman and Inkerma both contacted me within a day of each other asking me about it. I’m not sure how new of a thing they are.
It was my first time too… I didn’t know it was a thing until they contacted me. Another brand is sending me theirs too, but I don’t think any of the “big name” tool companies have one. Their 3 plane laser has been working well for me, time will tell on this one. Good Luck 👍
Well you came in second 😂😂 Sorry for the confusion on the giveaway. I'm glad I noticed your whole comment wasn't showing to go back and check Naste Nates That was new on that website this time.
You won the Giveaway... Make sure and send me an email with your address. I will give you a code word to reply back to this in the email to make sure its you. jmorg19804@gmail.com
Cigman Son of a gun. This thing has a ton of awesome features. I could see this being great for me as an electrician. Estimating pipe runs for conduit, matching existing offsets angles, MC runs, measuring out lighting placement. Damn I can think of a ton of things this would be handy for. #cigman
The magnet on the back would stick to conduit too… the magnet would be more handy for the level part than the laser. I now wish the side was magnetic too 😂 I haven’t used it a great deal so far, but it seems to be pretty good. I also have another companies coming in the mail too… it will be good to have something to compare it to.
@@MORGANSMaintenance I have a the Toughbuilt 360 degree level that works pretty good for catching an angle you don’t know. It has a dial that you move the bubble level so you can reference any angle. I have a Bosch laser distance measure that works pretty good (same or similar to the one you have in the video). It’s good but neither of those do I carry in my bags daily. This thing I might have to make room for.
I’m a retired machinist. I appreciate when I have a known angle and a distance to figure out the rest of my work. I now work for myself doing electrical and carpentry (hanging cabinets). This double ended laser would be great for any contractor, big or small. Also, have you tried Kleins Tools ncvt-6 Voltage Tester and Distance Measure? #CIGMAN
I see the value in it for sure.. and out of the box it seems to do everything it says. Only time will tell on durability, etc. I have thought about getting that a few times just for a space saver in a tool bag. To me if you can get a tool that does two things well, it’s nice to get your bag size down. Sometimes finding tools that do multiple things as well as individual tools are hard to find though…. I will definitely revisit that one once my NCV gets dropped one too many times 😂 I appreciate the suggestion and best of luck in the giveaway 👍
Great review. I really like using digital lasers for estimates to quickly get general numbers for materials. I also use them for long runs of trim. And there are times where I could see using the dual feature as well. I really like the digital angle finder as well. Looks like a useful product. #cigman
Yeah that’s kinda what my Blaze one is. The Bosch one I have that is a little more fancy I bought because it works with an app to make a drawing while you shoot measurements…. That never was good enough to use, but it does have some nice features. I’ve had all the Bosch ones long enough to trust their accuracy and durability. We will see about the Cigman, but so far so good. Good Luck 👍
Yeah it will be helpful sometimes for sure. It was the first thing I thought of when they sent me the info on it. I’m sure I will find out more dual laser uses over time as I use it. Good luck… as if you need it 😂
I didn’t know there was such a thing either until they contacted me. I have another brands coming in the mail too. Appreciate you watching and Good Luck 👍
I didn't even know that such a thing existed. Overall with all those functions, pretty nice display, angle measurement it's a decent entry level tool. Very nice and informative review.
I didn’t know either till them and another contacted me about them… but I haven’t searched for a Laser Measuring Device in quite some time. The Bosch ones I have found to be very durable and accurate. Thanks my good friend 👍👍
@@MORGANSMaintenance Yeah, I have my Makita since like 2008 or so. It's accurate and have all the functions I need, thus I rarely look at laser distance meters. In my line of work I don't need Bluetooth. The only thing I'd change is the display. The one I use is old monochrome greyish type with green backlight. Because I use it mainly indoors it's not a problem, but sometimes it would be nice to have something more modern. On the other hand - I change the batteries (2xAAA) once a 6 months... As for the video - I'm a bit disappointed that given your excellent style you don't have 50k subscribers yet. I see fairly steady growth, but it'd be nice if more viewers appreciated your effort.
@@Stefan_Kawalec I’m still surprised I have 1000 😂 Yeah I bought my newer Bosch for the Bluetooth. It is supposed to work with an app and make a drawing as you take your measurements, but that has never been quite up to par in my opinion. I have never used the Bluetooth to store/send measurements. I mainly just use the Length feature and that’s about it. It’s hard for me to put trust in things that are doing calculations for how much of materials I need for an estimate. If I do use it, I still usually double check it and use it as a confirmation. I don’t want to lose an arm and leg because I didn’t push a button in the right way. I am usually a bigger fan in batteries over charging for tools like this (not used daily). When I get it out I need it. I can easily change batteries if it’s dead and go with it… not sit and wait for it to charge. Appreciate the kind words and all your support.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Let's hope that after 10000 there will be a snowball effect. I watched Bosch infomercials showing that auto drawing function and it looked sloppy. Leica has some similar features, but the price difference between lower grade and pro solutions gives some food for thought. If a pro handheld measuring/drawing device costs over $5000, I don't believe that drawing via $150 laser meter may be any good.
@@Stefan_Kawalec true, you usually get what you pay for… I was just hoping to use it for better than my pencil one on site, till I got home to the computer. It was definitely sloppy 😂
CIGMAN Great video . I like reviews when the publisher gets right to it .
Appreciate it… I sometimes ramble on. This one ended up being a long one, but it had a bunch of features.
👍👍

Seems like a lot of features. Probably have to read the directions if you don’t use it frequently. #CIGMAN
Yeah it has more options than I will likely ever use often… I will have to look some up for sure
👍👍
I have an older Bosch laser measurer. That #CIGMAN one has some nice features that the Bosch does not.
Yeah it does a lot.. It’s been accurate so far… it’s not as time tested as my Bosch, but so far so good.
#cigman this would be awesome for to use as quick tool instead of grabbing a level and a tape.
… yeah I think it’s a good idea. I’m actually surprised none of the “big companies” have one.
Good Luck Buddy 👍
Great review, I think the #Cigman is going to replace my Bosch.
The Bosch ones I’ve had over the years have all performed well… only time will tell on this one, but out of the box this one looks good so far.
Good luck 👍
Nice I have one my self.
👍👍… you liking it so far?
#CIGMAN this thing is sweet. Watched the video again just to think of more uses
👍
Dual laser sounds good. I hope i can try it too #CIGMAN
It’s a neat idea that I didn’t know was an option.
Good Luck 👍
is this Cigman lighter than a tape measure? #CIGMAN FTW!
