Like the other brothers, in addition to Tomson Yipin and Masalati, which can attract my attention, I will also be interested in some cool and practical EDC gadgets. Like me, in my daily life, I like to collect lighters, flashlights, small knife and other gadgets.
Before I would buckle a small tape measure on the keychain to carry around, this is a little hobby of men, of course, men's hobbies are also up to date.
Some time ago, I spent 169 on Xiaomi Youpin to crowdfund a more advanced EDC gadget - HOTO Monkey Intelligent Laser Rangefinder, and after the rangefinder arrived, I changed this small tape measure.
Currently, among so many of my EDC gadgets, the rangefinder is number one in my favorites.
When I first arrived, I saw that its packaging was very delicate and high-end, and it was also a minimalist black wind that I liked very much.
The exterior design of the rangefinder also just bumped into my aesthetic, small and exquisite like a small U disk, the design of the "small yellow circle" in the middle is also convenient for daily operation.
Made of high-strength engineered materials and scratch-resistant and wear-resistant UV paint, the texture of frost on my hand, I really have no resistance to minimalist and advanced design.
The display uses a hidden OLED design, which consumes less energy and can see the power, Bluetooth connection status, and measurement data. It is also convenient to charge with a Type-C charging port.
After the rangefinder is connected to the smart control of the mobile phone's Mijia APP, the real drama begins.
The mobile phone interface will update the data measured by the rangefinder in real time, and I can also make notes on the data measured by these measurements, such as furniture height, living room room, you can simply and clearly see each data, very humanized function.
In the Mijia APP, you can also see that it has the function of "hand-drawn floor plan", after drawing a rough shape on the mobile phone interface, it will automatically combine the actual measured data to adjust the proportion between the data, so that the floor plan is more accurate.
In addition, there is also a live-action annotation function, which can directly take photos, or select photos stored in the album and draw, measure and label directly on the pictures. It is usually very convenient to measure the size of objects such as tea sets, tables and chairs.
It is worth mentioning that the rangefinder uses a class II laser that is safe for the human body, and there is a front and rear dual reference mode, and the front side can be selected as the measurement reference or the rear side can be selected as the measurement reference. Moreover, the "measurement speed" of the machine is fast, the measurement data is stable, the accuracy can reach ±2mm, and the ranging length can reach up to 30m, which is more than enough for daily use.
To be honest, Xiaomi has a product on the crowdfunding products are very good, this HOTO monkey smart laser rangefinder in addition to daily measurement furniture, room use, usually see some things, curious about its size, as long as the rangefinder to measure there is data, very convenient.
