FAQs

Accuracy You Can Trust, Distance You Can See.

How does a laser rangefinder work?​​

It emits a laser beam toward a target, measures the time it takes for the light to reflect back, and calculates distance using the speed of light (Time-of-Flight principle).

What is the typical measuring range of a laser rangefinder?​​

Consumer models measure ​5m–1000m+​, while professional models (e.g., surveying) can reach ​2km–5km+​. Range depends on target reflectivity and weather conditions.

Are laser rangefinders safe for eyes?​​

Most consumer models (Class 1 or Class 2 lasers) are eye-safe. Industrial/military-grade rangefinders (Class 3R/3B) require caution. Always check the laser class.

What’s the difference between golf, hunting, and surveying rangefinders?​​

Golf:​​ Short-range (~500m), slope compensation (in some models). ​Hunting:​​ Long-range (~1000m+), angle compensation, rugged design. ​Surveying:​​ High precision (±1mm), long-range, data logging.

Can weather affect laser rangefinder accuracy?​​

Heavy rain, fog, or dust can scatter the laser beam, reducing range and accuracy. Bright sunlight may also interfere with target visibility.

Do laser rangefinders work on all surfaces?​​

Best on reflective/hard surfaces (metal, glass). Dark, matte, or absorbent surfaces (e.g., black fabric) may reduce range or fail to return a signal.
