Attention surveyors: John Harman has been assembling Disto X2 digital survey instruments for a few months now. These units are fantastic! They are waterproof (IP-65) and contain a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery that reduces the need for recalibration. (The first calibration is already done.) They are also Bluetooth enabled so they can communicate directly with a PDA for digital in-cave sketching. They are pricey, but so wonderful that I think they are totally worth it. I've been using one for a couple of months now and never looked back.
Below is John's recent post from the NSS Cartography Facebook feed. Mark Surveyors - we just finished and shipped our most recent batch of DistoX2 units today. We've already received 3 orders for the next batch and will be starting that build within the next couple weeks. If you'd like one of these amazing instruments send me a private message on here, or e-mail to [email protected]. The per unit cost is $615 + shipping. The way the process works is we send you a purchase order form to fill out, which you return to us. We then procure all the materials, assemble the unit, test it, and calibrate it. Once the instrument is fully qualified and calibrated we send you an invoice for the cost of the instrument plus shipping. You pay the invoice and we ship the instrument. We fully warrant the device against manufacturing defects and will repair broken devices for a standard lab fee. Please don't hesitate to contact me for more info. - John Harman _______________________________________________ Texascavers mailing list | http://texascavers.com [email protected] | Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ http://lists.texascavers.com/listinfo/texascavers
