Wow absolutely crazy it seems like an amazing tape measure and all it functions could see it having lots of uses for some people Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much for watching Jim! It is definitely unique! I appreciate the comment! :)
How cool is that? However I am used to inches and fractions and really am too old and set in my ways to learn decimals. Still I could have a blast playing with the thing. Happy Tuesday, and thanks for the fun video.
Thanks so much as always for watching and commenting Pat. You know you are so correct, you aren't the only one that brought up that fraction issue. That seems like it would be such an easy thing to add. I know this tool is a kickstarter project, so I bet this is the kind of feedback they are looking for. Thank you so much for sharing!
Just ordered it two days ago. Will have it Sunday.
Awesome! I hope it works out for you Christopher!
What a gadget! I could see a huge functionality for fine tuning material costs for construction projects. Most people (that I know) will do a calculation and then add a fudge factor and end up having a lot of excess material left at the end of someone else’s project. For one of my own projects, I try to be pretty precise on materials, particularly with today material costs. Good review. Thanks.
I totally agree with you Michael. It's kind of one of those tools that's really neat to take a look at, but not something I'd be using on a daily basis. Since us woodworkers deal with pretty small measurements, and need to make tick marks, etc. on our wood, it doesn't really fit. But what a great piece of tech. I'm sure it will be very useful to some people! Thanks for watchign and commenting!
Great review Brian! I didn’t hear it mentioned, but what’s your thoughts on toughness? Do you think it’s tough enough for job site work and mishaps?
Great question James! Someone else had asked the same question. I probably should have dug into that a little deeper. It feels quite tough similar to a dewalt or a milwaukee tape measure, but That doesn't mean it will still work after being dropped from a considerable height. Great question and I wish I had a better answer for you!
Flynndog, I can certainly see where having the charging port on the battery seems like an inconvenience. However this would allow you to have multiple batteries and charge one outside the unit while using another. It does give you a "zero downtime" scenario. BTW really enjoy your content!
What a great point John! Thank you for sharing. I totally didn't think about that benefit. You could totally have a battery charging on the side while you are off using the tool. Thank you so much for pointing this out, really great point! Thanks so much for watching, your kind words, and watching! :)
thats brilliant
Pretty cool huh! Thanks so much for watcing ceritasenja!
So do I have to make a cheat sheet with every 1/16" of decimal conversions? Or if I'm using the laser will it show me the virtual tape so I can see that .875 is 7/8"?
Also, what is the accuracy? is it plus/minus 1/32" ? Does the virtual screen snap to the closest 1/16" or can you visually see it move 1/64" at a time?!?
Great questions! I’ll need to refer back to this tool. If I remember correctly you can either use decimals or fractions both for the tape and the laser… and I just realized it’s sitting in the bench in front of me. It has a readout with both decimals and fractions at the same time. Looks like the accuracy is 1/32’’ if you are using the fractions, decimals has a tighter readout. Looks like the readout snaps back to the closest 1/32’’ for the readout. But if you are using decimals you can get in between 1/32’’ (and the virtual tape measure shows that readout). Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Can you use both lasers at the same time? Say measuring gride on a floor for tiling. Use the distance measuring laser to point at the wall. then marking the ground using the other laser. This could also help to know how many inches wide you want the end tiles, so you can center the tiles on your floor easier. (I think I hurt my brain thinking again) I suppose you could just use the tape part, but both laser at the same time would just be cool.
Great question Roy. I suspect the answer is yes, but I'm not 100% sure on that. I have since packed up this tool for my renovation otherwise I would just go and test that real quick. Sorry I can't give you a more definitive answer!
Hello , does the tape have an option to include its own length when measuring things?
Hello Gownlakzul! yes, the tape measure has the ability to include or exclude it's own length. Great question!
Good morning
It says that it is possible to change the tape measure? Is it true if that is the case we could have shorts on it? THANKS
Yes! I beleive that is true. I would love to do a short on that if I had an extra tape! I would recommend contacting the company, it has been my expereince that they are very responsive. I'm sure they could give some instructional material on that. I've never done it before so I'm not sure I would be the right person to do it! :). Great question though!
It doesn't shown, so I have to ask... Is there a function you can measure straight distance in angular position? Thanks
Not that I am aware of, unless you do it manually! Great question and thanks for watching arkzeal!
Hi man good video bud ... please please accuracy test .. how its the accuracy of tape and laser ?? please man ... iam carpenter from czech republic :) ... and there is simular measure tape called Tomahawk T1 company Reecon they are from boston .. its very nice tool too ..
You are exactly correct Michal, I need to do more accuracy tests. I did quite a few off camera and I saw no problems at all. It sounds like some people would like to see more of the testing in the videos so I will try and address that in the future. I would love to check out that tomahawk t1. I don't think it is available here in the us yet however. Thanks so much for watching!
Looks like a cheaper version of the T1 Tomahawk except it's not cheaper.
Well, I would agree it looks very similar to the T1, last time I saw the T1 wasn't available to the public. I'm going to see if it is now! Thanks for watchign LieutenantStandby!
It looks really cool, but that does seem like a huge over site with the charging situation. whats really disappointing is that I was unable to find a place to purchase a second battery or the so called replaceable tape measure. there's a website with nothing but the tool and a little info. there's a kickstarter and it was their first project and they've never backed anything else. at least with an additional battery, you could just swap them out when needed.
Thank you so much for sharing this information! I just looked myself to see if replacement blades and or batteries were available, and I could not find either one available online at least (which is where I do all my shopping). Sounds like they have a few bumps in the road ahead of them. I was so excited to show off the tech of this tool, I did not look into the availability of replacement parts. Really appreciate you sharing this!
I'd like to you compare the measurements it gets with a "real" tape measure (at various distances). Also, having been a carpenter most of my working carrier, I bet that thing would not survive on a jobsite. How many times can you drop it before it breaks? Is it waterproof? (I often worked when it was drizzling.) How does it handle hot or cold? I've worked in 100 degree heat and frigid below 0 degrees temperatures. Might be an OK shop tool, if you are into that kind of thing. But then, it's expensive!
What great questions w9jim! Now you got me thinking I need to do a more in depth review. I really like your real life examples. All excellent questions, and I wish I could answer them. Thank you so much for sharing and watching. I will tell you, that the tape measure did feel very well built. Similar to some of my thicker skinned dewalt tape measures etc. (if thicker skinned is a thing in the tape measure world). Rain, would be a good test, cold... well I'll get to test that out here soon! Thanks again for watching!
I am strangely attracted to this. Absolutely no need for it, but attracted nonetheless. Thanks, Brian.
I know right! It's a pretty cool piece of technology. I find myself strangly attracted to all sorts of expensive gadgets for some reason! :(
Now you know what to buy me for Christmas. 😅
Haha! You got it Ken! Thanks as always for watching!
@@FlynndoggWoodwork I can take that off my letter to Santa 🤶
@@kenerickson4923 Haha! One of the kids in one of son's classes was saying something about not believing in him... preposterous!
wish i had those for my dad's birthday on dec.31
:) Thanks for watchign atrix!
Just when you thought there couldn't be any more advancements in tape measure technology...
Haha! I know right Ted?! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
Doesn’t compare to the reekon t1 but the distance laser and its function s are something the reekon should do in there next tape project for sure
Thanks so much for sharing outdoorsurvival! I'm actually talking to reekon right now. I'm going to do a comparison of the two! Thanks for watching!
Looks like no other tape measure except maybe the reekon t1🤣
That's correct! I'm actually taking to Reekon right now to see if I can take a look at their tape measure as well. I think it would be interesting to compare the two!
@@FlynndoggWoodwork the reekon is far better quality but I will say that laser range finder and its functions would take the reekon up a few levels
@@outdoorsurvival7730 Very cool. Really would like to get my hands one one. I reviewed this acegamet prior to the reekon being available to the public. Glad to see reekon final got it up and available to the public
Is not good guys, I bought it, it makes my work slower, only good is for showing off
That you for sharing your experience. Very good for others to hear everyone's experience with the tools. Thanks again maoss40!
looks suspiciously like the Reekon T1 Tomahawk.....
Stay tuned! I just got one of those to review. Will be coming out with a video in a few weeks. Going to be interesting how the two compare
@@FlynndoggWoodwork Yes, I have the Tomahawk. There are features on the ACEGMet that I really like too from your review
@@jimyoungquist1687 Yeah, I'm really interested to compare the two!
@@FlynndoggWoodwork reading the customer reviews, these are two different animals, but accuracy might be an issue.
@@jimyoungquist1687 Yeah, It looked like both of them have some different features. I noticed on the tomahawk, (after only taking a quick look at it so far) it has a lot of readings on the outside of it, which looks to be a nice feature. Looking forward to digging deeper into the tomahawk
Its nice but a bit to pricy. If i could stick this on my miter and pull it off when i need I could justify that price a bit more.
I totally hear you StOmper! It's a bit of a pricy tool. I like your idea with the Miter saw! Thanks so much for watchign and commenting!
Dogg, man I got to know...who throws those tools to you? I'm thinking that hunchback from Notre Dame (the one in South Bend, that is) that hides in your rafters. Did you say "while holding your tool?" That could be embarrassing. Boy, impulse0341 didn't like your video. Probably not doing any push-ups. BTW, I miss when the sweat would pour, profusely, off your brow while you were working in the barn. Tomorrow is construction day. Good luck.
Haha! I'm really getting bad at missing a lot of my That's what she said comments! Did you know I even had a company at one point that was legally called That's what She Said LLC? The more you know. Ture story. Oh man, you aren't lying I've had some unfavorable comments lately. Try not to interact with them, or if I do only positivity. You are so correct construction starts tomorrow.... fingers crossed! :)
It apparently doesn't read fractions. No one measures feet or inches in decimals.
Telling the ground crew you need a board 13.701 feet will get you laughed of the job site.
It doesn't have 16" centers marked on the tape. If the battery dies layout is going to be a royal PIA for anything over 8 feet.
Hard pass.
Yep! I agree it's got some work ahead of it. Thanks so much for sharing, and watching. really appreciate it!
Good thing (almost) no one measures feet or inches at all
This is a clear patent infringement on the Reekon T1. I am disappointed in you giving this theft a platform.
I do not agree with that. This a kickstarter program that is being developed by Acegmet that has been in the laser distance meter and tape measure manufacturing process for years. The Reekon T1 is not out yet for the public and it has some features that this tape measure doesn't. Although they look similar, Acegmet is using their own technologies.
This is garbage compared to the t1 and the technology they have on the rock app.
The T1 Tomahawk hasn't been released yet. This one beat it to the market.
You are correct! The guys over there mentioned they might let me review theirs once it comes out. It would be an interesting comparison to see how it works compared to this one! THanks so much for watching and commenting Christopher!
Overly complex junk.
Thanks for watching!
