Anyone have any specific knowledge/experience of ultrasonic measures?

I'm looking for a simple accurate way of measuring things like door frames,
alcoves, cupboard interiors etc rather than complete rooms.


Err ain't that what a tape measure's for?

Most seem to have a minimum range of 60cm which is fine, maximum range
whatever. Like one with a laser pointer to make life easier.


I was 'presented' with one quite a few years (maybe 15 years or so) ago as
an aid to measuring the height of overhead lines. I wasn't overly
impressed, but the technology might have improved over the years. It was
something of a toy; it's lying around somewhere in one of the gsrage
cupboards now.
