DeWalt is set to release three new laser distance measurers and two Tough Rotary Lasers for the fall. Here, to make your job easier and withstand a rough and tough job site, let’s look at each product and what is inside.
Tough Rotary Laser
Whether you believe a green or red laser works best, either one of these will make your job easier. The DeWalt DW080LGS and the DW080LRS give an accuracy of +/- 1/16” at 100 feet, along with a 250-foot interior and 2,000-foot exterior range. With that range and accuracy, you can effectively size a room or, with the detector, excavate outdoors with little trouble.
With an IP67 rating, it can handle the roughest job sites and weather. Debris and water resistance means it can handle heavy rain without you having to slow down when it pours. Two-meter, or 6 ½ feet, drop protection shows that this can be on the job site, and you don’t have to worry about being gentle with this tool.
Besides its durability and accuracy, the convenient thing about this tool is its connectivity. With the Tool Connect app, you can connect the tool over Bluetooth and get approximate location tracking and tool customization. This means you could be standing away from it and be able to adjust the level remotely without having to walk back to it. Saving you time and energy when you only have to make a small adjustment of a few degrees.

(1) Rotary Laser, (1) Detector, (1) TSTAK Storage Case, (1) 5/8 in. Bracket Adapter, (1) 20V MAX Battery, (1) 20V MAX Charger, (1) Enhancement Glasses, (1) Target Card, (1) Ceiling Bracket, (1) Detector Bracket, and (1) 5/8 in. Tripod Adapter
Laser Distance Measure
Three new laser distance measures are perfect for anyone needing a quick reference. Able to quickly measure volume and area for painting, flooring, and various other applications. Like the Tough Rotary Laser, the 330-foot Laser Distance Measurer (DW0330S) and the 165-foot Laser Distance Measurer (DW0165S) can connect with the Tool Connect App. Making it easier to share information without having to walk back and forth across the job site.
If you don’t need all the Bluetooth connectivity, there is also the DeWalt 165-Foot Laser Distance Measure (DW0165). A simple laser measure that can effectively do the job and can handle the job site just as well as the others. All three laser measures have an accuracy of +/- 1/16” at 30 feet, and viewing your measurements is easy day or night, thanks to the backlight backlit LCD screen.

With each Laser Distance Measurer, you receive the following items:
(1) Laser Distance Measurer, (1) pack of AAA batteries, (1) Quick Start Guide
Final Thoughts
If you need measurements to be as exact as possible, there is no better tool for your work than one of DeWalt’s Laser Measurers or their Rotary Laser. From eliminating tedious walking back and forth on the job site, getting rid of the guesswork with the old rope and line method, and being able to calculate the area, distance, and volume of your measurements, any one of these will help you get the job done quicker.
