Thank you for the video. I don't completely understand all the Pythagorean formula stuff, but for my uses (measuring lengths), it looks perfect. I just hate hate hate having to reflip flipped measuring tapes or going back and redoing the whole thing because I accidentally let some of the tape roll back in.

I feel like I sorta got the idea on how to use the pythagoras measures, but after watching 3 times, and trying to squint to see your laser measurer screen, I still have to look for other videos about how to use the pythagoras measures. Thanks for your efforts, tho.

Having dyscalculi (same as dyslexia but with numbers instead) this seemes like a genious devise. Math would have been so much more fun to learn when you see the practical usage, and get a feel for the real distance instead of it being all abstract numbers. Going to buy one now. If I were a teacher, I would so have used this tool for educational purposes. First giving the kiddoes fun things to measure outside, make games out of it, so they get a "feel" for distances, and the different sides to calculate, and then go inside to start with the math book's abstract numbers. At least to have a "baseline". Thanks for your video. I would never have thought of it if I didn't see it. I am definitely going to use this if I ever have kids, when teaching them practical math. And also being a good tool in daily life 😄😄

My tacklife was working perfectly and I've used these devices for years (I'm a real estate broker), however, I can't get it to read my measurement on the screen any longer. I've changed the battery, but it doesn't show the measurements. The screen shows everything else and I've done all I know to clear it, reset it, and trying to just measure a simple length of a room...no luck. Any solutions or ideas?

I bought this laser tape based on many reviews like yours but I am very disappointed that no one has been able to show how to calibrate it and yet everyone gave five star reviews, both in Amazon and youtube. This laser tape works great but I could not calibrate. Instruction manual is poorly written. I would appreciate if you can show how to calibrate it or if not please mention that in your review so that people like me won't go and buy it. It works great for now but what to do when I need to calibrate?

if you stick your laser against the wall like you did, you're not measuring the length of the device, it measures from the point of the laser. So it can not be the same as the measure tape.
