What handheld external devices does Javad support?

Laser Atlanta used to make a very strong device, that could eat up topo.
Now, many companies are doing stuff with laser rangefinders, compass, and inclinometer.
I want to buy one that's compatible.
Bosch, Leica, etc.
Thank you,

I can't really help with your question, but I'm wondering what how you would use a rangefinder? Can you give a real-world example?

Tying a power pole, across a ditch. I carry a suunto compass. It's declination is set.
I read 346-1/2 degrees (declination already in reading) distance is 65.8'.
There is a sea of brairs there. Bam! We've got it.
Laser Atlanta made a real strong rig. It hooked via rs232 to a data collector.
I watched a guy use one. He took a rtk shot in the open road. Then, proceeded to shoot earth shots all over. Laser Atlanta rig has all 3 in it. Directional compass, inclinometer, and a very strong EDM.
Nikon Forrestry Pro does a lot of the same.
Enter the point number, and HI, and shoot many sideshots.
Likely, J-Mate will fill this need... Except for when doing just a few sideshots.
The Laser Atlanta device was large. Maybe 5 lbs.
This also stabilized it.

I wish Javad could buy a company, that would give him all the power of the laser atlanta device, but smaller.
