[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 3107804, member: 796"] Well, I hate to say it, but we played around with rangefinder binocs for use by weather teams to measure cloud height, and the ones we liked best were the ones supplied to tanks that were not considered eye safe for civilian use. Of the ones that were eye safe for general civilian use, naturally we favored the $3K Leica. Why you would spend that much for most civilian uses, I can only guess, but they surely are nice. Our normal laser ceilometers are too heavy to lug around, being designed for fixed airfield use. Incidentally, the fixed laser ceilometers pulse in infrared, and look like machinegun fire coming up to aircrews wearing NVG. [/QUOTE]
