Dewalt has a new ToughSeries tape measure on the way, a 25′ tape with built-in LED light, model DWHT35625S.
From what I can tell, the new Dewalt tape measure is identical to their existing ToughSeries 25′ tape, a fantastic albeit pricey tape measure.
Like the non-lighted model, this tape has a 17-foot reach (14 foot standout + plus 3 feet).
It features double-sided markings, with printing on the reverse side for easier overhead measurements.
The light helps the tape provide professional-grade performance in the darkest work areas.
It’s toggled on and off via a large power button on the bottom.
The built-in battery is charged via USB. It’s unclear what type of USB port this is, but let’s hope it’s USB-C.
Dewalt says the tape measure can withstand drops of up to 100 feet onto packed soil.
The belt clip design should be familiar to Dewalt tape measure users.
Price: TBA
In case you missed it, Milwaukee also has an LED tape measure on the way.
