The maximum range is 130 feet (40 meters), though the title says 120. It can track distance or take a straight-line measure, in metric or imperial units. Bluetooth 4.0 links it to apps such as the free Disto sketch app for iOS and Android, which makes simple floor plans or adds lines to photos. The color is red, the weight is about 0.19 pounds and the part number is 846805. The model is D1. The warranty is two years from the maker.<\/p>\n<p>A Class II laser can still harm eyes if you stare into it, so never point it at people or animals. The range figures in the title and the text differ, and range drops in bright light or on dark surfaces, so a target plate may help. Accuracy depends on holding the unit steady against a flat surface. Check the Bluetooth link with your phone&#8217;s system before you buy. Batteries are not named in the listing.<\/p>\n<h2>Best-Fit Shopper<\/h2>\n<p>This style of measuring &amp; layout suits shoppers who already know they need laser distance meters coverage and want a Leica option with transparent listing details.<\/p>\n<p>It is a weaker match if you need a fully custom install, a different capacity class, or a feature the hub row simply does not list.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Double-Check<\/h2>\n<p>Trade-offs are normal in laser distance meters. A design that wins on portability may give up enclosed storage; a long wireless claim may assume open line-of-sight; a high load rating usually assumes even distribution.<\/p>\n<p>Our Storage Pick badge is editorial shorthand for \u201cworth considering in this category,\u201d not a guarantee for every floor plan, campsite, or property layout.<\/p>\n<h2>Alternatives Context<\/h2>\n<p>Against generic no-name alternatives, Leica listings often win on clearer packaging and easier returns through Amazon \u2014 still read the live seller and fulfillment line.<\/p>\n<p>Against premium ecosystems, this unit may look simpler. That can be a feature if you want fewer apps and more straightforward hardware.<\/p>\n<h2>Final Buying Notes<\/h2>\n<p>Buy the Leica Geosystems DISTO D1 120ft Laser Distance Measure with Bluetooth 4.0 if the hub numbers and feature set line up with your laser distance meters job. Skip it if you need a capability the listing does not document.<\/p>\n<p>Use the Amazon button on this page to check the current price, stock and seller details before you buy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Considering a Leica laser distance meter?
