Best Rangefinder (Any Price) NO Bluetooth?

What is the absolute best possible laser range finder that does not have bluetooth in it? I don't trust that the setting disables bluetooth. I want a model that emits zero RF and cannot emit any RF other than the laser itself. Unfortunately I expect all of the latest and greatest will have bluetooth so I'm probably stuck with an older generation.

I don't have a particular budget in mind for this, I can probably afford to buy anything that exists for commercial sales.

I currently only shoot to around 800 yards, eventually plan to shoot to 1300 yards, and would like to future proof myself because I expect all future models to have bluetooth and I prefer to buy the best thing up front.

It would be really cool if it had great glass and could be used for observation purposes when not needed for shooting. I think I want monocular but would consider binocular as well.

Thank you.
 
I use my Leica as a general monocular for observation, and as an LRF. Carry it in the woods all the time. Delightful size, weight, clarity, etc.

At least below the 2800, they had no BT hardware onboard. It seems they also have gone the value-added-feature mode so there is no non ".COM" version of the 2800 and 3200 sadly, but if you get a previous generation (say the 2400) it will be identical glass, nearly as much power/sensitivity and is entirely EMCON passive.

Weird battery and requiring an adapter to tripod it is literally the only bad thing about the Leicas.

(I have the 1600 and it's ranged to 900 yds handheld, to 1450 off a tripod so the ratings are more accurate than most competitors, and you don't necessarily miss anything dropping back from the higher powers).
