 "Can't keep it aligned while cutting" 2010-06-26
By T. J. Peterson (Florida, USA)
I purchased this after I bought my saw; love the saw but this laser is junk. I had no problems mounting it and it turns on okay but it's very difficult to align and once you start cutting it moves out of alignment. I plan on taking my saw with the laser mounted to the Dewalt service center 20 minutes away to see if they can get it aligned properly where it will stay or possibly replace it. I've had it too long to get my money back. Most of my power tools are Dewalt and I'm very surprised that this is basically worthless.

By Bobby43 (California)
About 90% of all my tools are Dewalt, so needless to say I'm a pretty big fan... But this laser is straight junk... Very hard to adjust and it doesn't stay true... Also you laser line will move as you are coming down to cut your material... To bad I can't at least use it as a coat hanger... Don't waste your money...

 "DeWalt Laser" 2010-02-08
By Sarah E. Boylan-gore
I wanted to get my husband the laser for his new DeWalt saw. The box stores were 3x the price. After calling DeWalt, directly, they confirmed the DW7187 was the correct laser. It is great and works wonderfully.

 "Never Stays Accurate" 2009-11-10
By El Cucuy (Mexifornia)
This thing needs to be adjusted EVERY TIME you move you saw. They specifically put the allen wrench on the top so you can adjust it all the time. It's also hard to get this thing right where you want it. Once you do, the screws are so loose they will fall out if you leave it that way. I wish I could use this thing all the time, but it's basically just a guide to have an idea where the saw will cut and not an accurate mark to go by. Usually it's left turned off because it makes it hard to see the actual pencil mark.

 "Don't waste your money!" 2009-07-12
By Marcelo C. (California, USA)
I wish I would have read more of the reviews before I purchased my laser from the local home improvement center. As previously stated the laser projection is too thick, you need to recalibrate it just about every time you change the angle, definitely every time you pick it up or move it, and now that I have it set up in my shop it seems as if just about once or twice a week I recalibrate it. I have gone so far as to just leave it off and eye ball the cut, tried and true method!



It really is a shame that this product isn't as great as it should be. I thought I just had a defective unit, but no, it really sucks!



I wanted to try the IRWIN laser that mounts directly to the blade shaft, although after speaking with a friend I heard that one is just as good as this one.



Save your money. Use your eyes!

 "+Cheap, Easy -Lacks refinement, features" 2009-12-30
By D. Mosier (Michigan)
This is truly a product that fits its price range. Its cheap, and does not come with any frills or features. But, it works, and is very easy to set up. For the price, its a great buy.



EXCEPT one thing. For our testing I found it annoying there was no setting to take a measurement, just a button that had to continuously be pressed for it to read RPMs. We ended up taping the button down, which worked well enough. Of course, I should have known this before I bought it.



Good product for what you pay

Bosch DLR165K Laser Distance Measuring Device

Buy Cheap Bosch DLR165K Laser Distance Measuring Device


Buy Low Price From Here Now

If you are looking for fast, easy, and accurate measuring, look no further than the Bosch DLR165K Digital Laser Range Finder Kit. With precision laser measuring technology, a large measuring range, indirect length measurement, and more, you can count on this tool to handle just about any task. And with a compact, portable design, this handy range finder fits in your pocket, so you'll always have it when you need it.


The DLR165K Digital Laser Range Finder Kit
At a Glance:
  • Precision laser measuring technology
  • Pocket-sized; only four inches tall
  • Measures length, area, and volume
  • Four measuring reference points
  • Three measurement modes
  • 3-year limited warranty


Use Indirect Length Measurement Mode to calculate distances that cannot be measured directly due to obstruction. View larger.


Measuring only four inches tall, the DLR165K fits in your pocket.
Precision Laser Technology
Utilizing precision laser technology, the DLR165K takes length, area, and volume measurements that are accurate up to 1/16 inch. Whether you're trimming and scribing cabinets and counters or preparing to cut lumber, pipes, or conduit, you'll appreciate the DLR165K's fast measurement time of 0.5 to 4.0 seconds. You'll also love the easy-to-read digital display that shows all results in three units of measure: feet and inches, decimal feet, and metric.

4 Measuring Reference Points for Ease of Use
For further convenience, a single laser beam does both the pointing and the measuring. What's more, the DLR165K has four measuring reference points--back, front, swing-out extension pin for measuring from inside corners and channels, and center of tripod (sold separately). This means you can take several measurements simultaneously, without repositioning the unit. Also, a large range from two inches to 165 feet gives you the versatility you need to complete a variety of jobs.

3 Measurement Modes Offer Flexibility
Easier to use and more accurate than a tape measure, the DLR165K makes measuring a one-person job, even when walking off distances. In fact, its continuous-length mode automatically adjusts your measurement as you move forward, which means you won't waste time taking notes and repositioning the tool.

There's also an indirect measuring mode that calculates the distances that cannot be measured due to obstructions or lack of reflecting surfaces. Additionally, a continuous laser mode saves you time by reducing key strokes during rapid measurements.

World's Smallest Digital Range Finder
Measuring 4 x 2-15/16 x 1-1/4 inches, the DLR165K is the world's smallest digital range finder. You can easily fit it into your pocket, place it over your hand with the included hand strap, or hook its included carrying case on your belt loop. An added bonus, the DLR165K features an ergonomic soft grip area for a secure, comfortable hold.

One of Bosch's Most Innovative Measuring Tools
The DLR165K is part of Bosch's new line of compact, user-friendly, multipurpose measuring and layout tools. These tools are designed for optimum precision, so your project stays on course from start to finish. They level, align, measure, and detect--all with an innovative feature set that allows for effortless one-person operation, even when measuring walking-out distances.

The DLR165K is backed by a three-year limited warranty.

What's in the Box
DLR165K, one soft case with belt loop, hand strap, and four 1.5-volt 'AAA' batteries.

 "Very good but" 2010-02-15
By shoonsk8 (Indianapolis, IN United States)
It works very well if it was cloudy day adn daytime.

When it is fine sunny day, it would be very difficult to see the laser far away.

It needs back light in the really dark night.

Anyway since I bought used one, it was very good price so it was very good deal for me.

 "Very nice to have!" 2010-02-10
By Jens Zorn (Ann Arbor, MI USA)
I do lots of shop work but did not really need a device of this kind, however this Laser Ranger came up on the Amazon daily special list for about $65; I fell into the trap and bought it on impulse. It arrived promptly; it works very well and with astonishing precision over the distances which I tested... down to 8", up to 120 feet. Given my use, I can't say that its cost will be amortized in realistic terms any time soon. On the other hand, I find myself measuring things as a matter of interest (not matters of need) and that's fun. Also, while laser distance measuring equipment remains expensive (well beyond $100 in most cases) not many of my colleagues/neighbors have them, so I have found the Bosch unit to be a great conversation piece. Overall, very nice to have.
