Looks that way to me too.

Well, the number of people here that didn't know what I was talking about is growing now. It's up to what, now, four ...........?

Caesar,

I tried that approach but Steve doesn't seem to want to acknowledge that his use of the term "laser" is what started this whole "most of all" arc.

Most of all, I think it's just stubbornness on Steve's part to acknowledge that.

reply: There was a slight hint in there that I had owned one before, alluding to the fact that I know they do not operate solely on laser. The laser is for a pointer, then an acoustic signal determines distance.

You may resume splitting hairs and picking nits now.

If you are that smart why not just google the info you want?

Google gives me correct information, and not a bunch of kooks who go off tangentially at any stimulation. Sometimes I do it just to see what the reaction is. Like a cattle prod on a wet cat. You know what's going to happen, but it's still fun to watch the cat.

I'm having trouble with the statement, "for lengths of 10-40 feet max, but maybe out to 60' ".

Do you mean, "for lengths of 10-60'?

[Steve B]

Yes, common measurements of ten to forty feet, but occasionally out to 60'. The ones I had before had great difficulty getting much distance unless it was shooting at a very flat wall, like a block wall, or a block wall on a building that was more than one story tall.

I have a good rolling measure device, tape measures, and access to good satellite pictures of high resolution, but at times these won't work because of overhangs, obstructions, trees, etc.
