Bosch Measuring Tools, a leader in laser measuring technology, introduces the laser distance measurer of the future. The GLM 80, the first Li-ion battery-powered combination laser distance and angle measurer, incorporates a number of new features including the ability to accurately measure heights of and distances to objects with only one click of a button. The tool is created for users who need advanced functionality to increase productivity. The integrated two-axis tilt sensor, a first in the industry, enables the product to read angles when the unit is handled either horizontally or vertically. Its indirect measurement mode is ideal for taking measurements that are inaccessible. The product does this by combining distance with angle measurements with only one click of a button. The tilt sensor can also be recalibrated with a few simple calibration steps to ensure accuracy after drops, temperature changes and other usage variations. In addition, the tilt sensor ensures more accurate readings because it indicates when the unit is level.

The new tool features an integrated Li-Ion battery, rechargeable via standard micro-USB. The battery can achieve up to 25,000 measurements per charge. For more information, call 877-BOSCH-99 (877-267-2499) or visitwww.boschtools.com.
