Dropped $400 on a laser distance measurer and it paid for itself in a week

I bought a Bosch Blaze GLM165-40G last month to measure a tricky commercial renovation downtown. After using it to quickly verify ceiling heights and wall lengths without the ladder hassle, I saved at least 10 hours of rework. Has anyone else found a specific tool that cut their measurement time in half?

Funny how some tech just clicks while other gadgets gather dust, isn't it @vera514.

Used to roll my eyes at these but a buddy let me try his and yeah, it changed my mind.

For $400, that better be a super accurate model. In my experience, a quality 100 foot tape measure from a hardware store works just fine for most jobs without all the extra tech.
