I've never tried it, but I highly doubt it.

Winston, can you explain why? Is it too far or does the cloud absorb/scatter the light?

... Civilian market laser rangefinders must have a stable reflective surface to rebound off of, and well, most all clouds are too amorphous and too nebulous to record a good reading .

I work in the laser/fiber optics industry so I have acces to several laser diodes and stuff. If anyone has a damaged or broken range finder I would love to see if the laser could be upgraded (highpower) to increase the effective range.

Dude, I have a Bushnell (I think) that is not damaged, but I would love to see if you could upgrade it. I an current using a Leica 1200 (you can't have it!). Email me if you are really interested in screwing around with one. Dennis

roptics,
At what point do you start getting into non-eyesafe lasers. I know the US and Russian military range finders are not eyesafe. |
