LAOLAU 2-in-1 Laser Tape Measure 5M/16FT Auto-Lock Type-C
LAOLAU 2-in-1 Laser Tape Measure 5M/16FT Auto-Lock Type-C
LAOLAU 2-in-1 Laser Tape Measure – 5M/16FT Retractable Tape with Class II Laser, Bubble Level & Auto-Lock
Stop juggling two separate tools on every job. The LAOLAU 2-in-1 Laser Tape Measure combines a rugged 5M/16FT (25mm wide) retractable steel tape with a Class II laser in a single ergonomic device — so you can tackle short physical measurements and longer sightline distances without ever switching tools. Whether you're renovating a room, hanging shelves, planning a landscape, or quoting a property, this is the one measuring tool that does it all. Made in China.
Why This Tape Measure Outperforms the Rest
✅ Two Tools in One — Physical Tape + Class II Laser
The 5M/16FT retractable tape handles up close measurements with crisp, easy-to-read markings on a 25mm-wide blade, while the LD520 ±5nm Class II laser lets you mark longer distances — ceiling heights, across rooms, over obstacles — with a single button press. No more struggling with a sagging tape or needing a second person to hold the end.
✅ Type-C Rechargeable — No More Dead Batteries at the Wrong Moment
Powered by a high-capacity 18650 lithium battery (not included — purchase separately) charged via the universal Type-C port (≤5V input). A red indicator light shows charging in progress; it turns green when fully charged. The battery is removable and easy to upgrade.
✅ Built-In Horizontal Bubble Level for True Alignment
The integrated bubble level ensures every tape and laser measurement is perfectly horizontal, eliminating guesswork when hanging pictures, installing shelving, or laying flooring.
✅ Ergonomic ABS + TPE Non-Slip Handle
The dual-material ABS + TPE grip is contoured to reduce hand fatigue during extended use. The soft rubber overlay keeps the tool secure in your hand even in dusty or slightly damp conditions.
✅ Auto-Lock System for Hands-Free Measuring
A quick-release auto-lock button holds the tape blade firmly at your desired length so you can mark, scribe, or record without the blade snapping back unexpectedly.
✅ Bright Laser — Even in Low-Light Spaces
The LD520 ±5nm laser projects a clear, visible line in basements, attics, closets, and other poorly lit workspaces where traditional tape reading is difficult.
Laser Operation Modes
- Short press: Laser activates for 3 minutes — ideal for quick measurements.
- Long press (3 seconds): Continuous laser for hands-free, extended alignment tasks.
- Double-click: Flashing mode for easy targeting and visual alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the LAOLAU 2-in-1 Laser Tape Measure come with a battery included?
A: No — the 18650 rechargeable lithium battery is not included and must be purchased separately. Once you have the battery, simply charge it via the built-in Type-C port using any standard 5V USB charger. The LED indicator turns red while charging and green when the battery is full.
Q: How accurate is the laser on this tape measure?
A: The Class II LD520 ±5nm laser is designed for visual alignment, marking distances, and sightline guidance. It is best used alongside the physical 5M/16FT steel tape for precise measurements. The built-in bubble level ensures your alignment is perfectly horizontal every time.
Q: Can I use this laser tape measure in dark or dimly lit rooms?
A: Yes! The LD520 laser projects a bright, highly visible line that performs well in low-light conditions — basements, attics, crawl spaces, and other poorly lit work areas. Simply short-press the button to activate the laser for 3 minutes, or long-press for continuous operation.
Q: What does the auto-lock feature do?
A: The auto-lock system holds the tape blade securely at your chosen length so you can mark, record, or scribe without the blade retracting unexpectedly. A quick-release button allows smooth, controlled retraction when you're done.
Q: What certifications does this product have?
A: The LAOLAU ZF-001 Laser Tape Measure is certified to CE, RoHS, FCC, and UL standards, giving you confidence in its safety and quality for both home and professional use.
