Board-level module · source: ERDI catalogue (1535nm_rangefinder · page 17) · no prices on this page
LRF1017C is a board-level laser rangefinder module. The figures below are transcribed from ERDI's published catalogue (1535nm_rangefinder · page 17), not from memory; fields the catalogue does not publish are listed as unpublished rather than estimated.

Not published in this catalogue: Supply voltage, Protection rating, Update rate. Ask for the datasheet rather than assuming a value.
Where it sits in the ladder
LRF1017C sits at position 13 of 14 on the published single-unit ladder ($3,000). The step below is LRF0609C at $1,600 (−$1,400). The step above is LRF1830C at $7,000 (+$4,000). This is the eye-safe branch: people can be near the beam, which is why the price per metre is higher here than on the 905 nm classes. Published band: ≥10,000 m.
How to read the range figure
Compare the stated target and visibility condition, not the headline metre count. If a datasheet and this page disagree, the datasheet governs the order.
