I was thinking £290 is crazy for a measure , I suppose the problem with a disto is you need something at the other end for the laser to shine on

cool - but at a significant cost ---- can't see it sticking the pace for long though

used to buy 'em by the box from Cromwells or the like - was always plenty of tapes lying about the shop, aside from everyone's own individual tape ... biggest killer was the guillo/ironworker (ends got chopped off) or they'd get a flash from the hot stick and that'd be the end of another one -- kept my 'good' tapes in the office desk

No, just point it at the ground where you need to measure to and it’ll do the trig calcs for you.
Theres a camera with a crosshairs on it for longer distances.

My indoor tapes become outdoor tapes once worn out., they never last long outside with mud and wet on them!

Didn't even know there was a mode to do that
Just had a look at the manual for my x4 didn't realise half the stuff it can do. I just use it for basic measuring, always held it steady and pinged numbers when it said 0 degree
