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.



Si Hoc Legere Scis Nimium Eruditionis Habes = "If you can read this,
you are over educated". Not sure quite what this has to do with DIY.

Now if your tag was "Si fractum non sit, noli id reficere", that would
make sense!
