Bosch Laser Distance Measuring Tool Deal is back for Black Friday

Amazon, Home Depot, and Lowe’s all have the Bosch GLM100 laser distance measuring tool on sale ahead of Black Friday, as part of their holiday season tool deals.

This is a compact laser distance measuring tool with 100ft range and ±1/16″ accuracy, and it’s discounted to $40, its typical seasonal “special buy” price.

Bosch has been my go-to for laser distance measuring tools.

I bought a GLM100-23 around 2 years ago, and highly recommend it.

This is a compact and slim-featured model that handles 99% of my laser distance measuring tasks. It has been effortless and reliable to use.

I see the simplicity as a huge benefit – this is a laser distance measuring tool anyone can use – and you can always upgrade to more featured models if you need built-in calculations.

It’s powered by 2x AAA batteries, which are included.

Deal Price: $40

I’ve seen retailers selling this for $50 to $60 in between holiday shopping seasons.

For comparison, Dewalt’s Atomic series laser distance measuring tool (DW055PL via HD) is also $40 but has a range of just 55ft and accuracy of ±1/4″ at 32ft. Dewalt’s next-best laser distance measurer (DWHT77100 via HD) has a 100ft range, accuracy of 1/8″ at 32ft, and is priced at $90, which is more than double the price.

If you need longer measuring range or more features, such as built-in calculations, check out the GLM165-22. There’s also a green laser version, GLM165-25G.
