Project Farm: Laser Tape Measures

This week’s Project Farm compares laser tape measures. Tapes from General Tools, Toolman, Meterk, Zekbean, Mileseey, TickTockTools, BeiXun, eTape, Lexivon, Hyggein, DTAPE, Prexiso, and Koiss are tested. A regular Stanley Fatmax tape measure was used to compare the physical tape measure features against the laser tape measures. Most of the brands have both a physical tape measure and a laser. Laser testing includes: outdoor accuracy, ease of reading digital display in bright, outdoor conditions, durability when exposed to vibration, dust and water. Laser testing also included indoor accuracy testing. Physical tape measure tested for reach or “standout”, abrasion resistance, accuracy, and retraction speed after exposure to dust.
