Leica
Disto D2
[xxxxx]

The industry standard. I've been using Distos since I started. This one is smaller and easily fits in my tool vest. The battery life is good, but be sure to have extra AAA batteries on hand because they will run out in the middle of an inspection. This model also has bluetooth that will link the measurements to Xactimate Desktop and Mobile. Makes inspections go a lot faster. I also use it outdoors to measure fence lines, eave heights, etc. It's my go to measuring tool.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Highlights

Our newest take on the classic Leica DISTO D2. 
The Leica DISTO D2 is a 7 measurement mode laser distance meter. A fully-featured LDM that’s designed for multiple purposes, the D2 is easy to operate and builds on the D1 with more functions, higher accuracy at 1.5mm (rounds to 1/32″), and greater range at 100m (330′). 

Good value. Great features and functionality. 
The D2 offers multiple modes of measurement that are useful for many different kinds of projects: distance, min/max, permanent, stake-out, add/subtract, area, and volume, and it includes painter and Pythagoras functions. An intelligent endpiece enables you to measure accurately from outside or inside corners, including diagonal measurements. The D2 calculates area and volume, and remembers the last 10 measurements taken. And a back-lit LCD screen makes it easy to read while you’re on the job. 

Intelligent end-piece for corners and rough openings.
The D2 measures from its base by default and can be configured to measure from the front. You can also flip out the intelligent end-piece to 90º to hook onto outside corners or extend the end-piece fully for inside corners, and it will automatically measure from the end-piece when extended. Combined with the Min/Max function, the end-piece allows you to get the tool all the way into corners for accurate diagonal measurements.

Small, simple, powerful.
While the D2 only weighs 3 ounces (100g) and can easily fit in a toolbox or your pocket, it has a simple-to-use interface and powerful circuitry in a compact casing with IP 54 rating, protecting it from dust and splashes of water. The interface is perfect for casual, as-needed work at home, but you can rely on the D2’s accuracy—the intelligent end-piece connects directly to the circuit board. 

Best bang for your buck.
If you’ll be taking measurements often enough indoors to require precise accuracy, and if you need extra functions for different types of measurements, like corner measurements, then the D2 is a great choice for functionality and value.
