Leica Disto E7500i Laser Distance Meter (Red/Black)
Leica’s DISTO E7500i is an all-purpose laser distance meter with a robust set of features and functions that makes it useful in many different situations. Its oversized receiver lens allows the DISTO to see a laser dot up to 660 feet away. That’s well beyond the range a human could detect the dot with the naked eye. Additionally, the device’s measurements are accurate to 1/16th of an inch so you can be confident you’re always getting the most accurate readings possible. The DISTO also has a 360 degree tilt sensor that determines the angle of the laser. This allows the meter to calculate slope height and the distance to an object even when you’re shooting over an intervening obstacle. The DISTO has built-in Bluetooth Smart technology, too. This means you can pair the meter with a smartphone or tablet and send distance information to a variety of Leica apps that are available. These apps can aid in everything from taking flooring measurements to generating floor plans.
Incredible Range and Accuracy in Any Weather Conditions
The DISTO is designed to return distance readings from ranges much farther that the naked eye can see. Its oversized lens can detect a laser dot from 600 feet away and that distance can be further extended up to 660 feet by using the built-in digital camera that provides 4x image magnification. The readings the DISTO returns are accurate down to 1/16th of an inch, too, so you know you’re getting an accurate reading even from very long distances. To protect the delicate inner components of the device, Leica designed the body to be sealed against water and dust. It has an IP65 rating so you can confidently use it in the rain or on construction sites with excessive dust and dirt. The DISTO is also tripod-mountable to provide a stable platform since even small wobbles can throw off measurements when shooting an object from a long distance.
360-Degree Tilt Sensor
The DISTO’s ability to take distance measurements from very long distances is very useful, but the farther you get from the object you’re measuring the better the odds of running into an intervening object that blacks the laser. In these situations, there’s a 360-degree tilt sensor integrated into the device that compensates for elevation changes to return accurate horizontal distance measurements even when you have to shoot over a fence or wall. The tilt sensor can also be used to measure slopes by taking multiple shots at different locations of the incline.
Bluetooth Smart Connectivity
Leica has a number of apps that can be downloaded to smartphones or tablets which aid in a number of tasks ranging from taking flooring measurements to creating floor plans of entire houses. Normally, measurements are entered into these apps manually, but, when you pair the DISTO with the device running the app, it can transfer the information wirelessly and the app with calculate all the measurements itself.
Intelligent Endpiece
The endpiece is an integral part of the tool, connected to the circuit board. In the closed position the DISTO knows to measure from its base. Flip it open 90 degrees to align the base perfectly on an edge or corner. Flip it out all the way and you can put this baby in a corner to accurately measure diagonals. Otherwise, the width of the base would prevent you from getting all the way into the corner, rendering the measurement inaccurate.
Stake Out Function
The stake out function uses the continuous measurement mode to indicate where to place stakes along a stake-out line. It’s ideal for any situation where you need to place objects at a consistent interval. The display shows the distance to the next stake out point and the DISTO beeps as you approach it.
