[Acoustics] Laser rangefinders - availability of a rangefinde r cheaper and lighter than an Impulse

[Joseph Chung]

We've been looking at the TruPulse 200, also by LaserTech. <
http://www.geosolution.com/LTI_trupulse.htm
<http://www.geosolution.com/LTI_trupulse.htm> > it supposedly weighs in at
8oz. And is accurate within +/- 1ft, its supposed to go for about $700.  The
only problem is that we've yet to find a place that has it, Everywhere I've
called says they don't have them yet, a few places said it they wouldn't be
released until December or January, so I'd do some checking before ordering
online.  Let me know if you find somewhere that has them in stock!

Has anyone found a rangefinder that has +/- 1 ft accuracy and is lighter,
smaller and cheaper than an LaserTech Impulse 100?  We use rangefinders for
ADCP and wading (<300 ft wide sections) measurements. 
Thanks, Tim
