Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Built to last, this manual-leveling rotary laser level is a multi-functional laser instrument that combines a rotating laser with a vertical line (can be used as a cross-line) and plumb beam. Projected from a rotating head, the beam (1/4" at 100 feet accuracy) can be switched between a point, a vertical line, or a horizontal line. Designed for an entry-level user who demands quality and accuracy, this tool also features manual slope, built-in mounting bracket with 5/8"¿11 thread, variable electronic speeds and a range scan that provides two chalkline widths or a single point. Package includes: Manual-leveling rotary laser level, 4 AA alkaline batteries, 6V battery adapter, tinted glasses, instruction manual with warranty card, and hardshell carrying case with protective inner padding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good for the money!, April 21, 2007

After returning a couple of similar brands of lasers from Lowes and HD I settled on this one hoping it would be better and it was. It feels like it is built better if it is dropped and the accuracy is great. I was worried that it was manual, but it is so easy to set up to get level. I was able to see the line while doing a ceiling with the sun blaring right in on the line. So far I have no complaints with this laser at all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Check calibration, April 17, 2009

The first level I received was out of calibration. On receiving a second I checked the calibration several times and found varying results, most within tolerance. In any case, be sure to check it and be sure to check the level bubbles when in use. It is difficult to use outdoors as the spot mode is the brightest (The rotating line is worthless outdoors) and jumps when moving it instead of a slow movement so it is difficult to spot it on your rod (and you need the remote otherwise you are running back and forth to move the dot). In my experience , the self leveling devices are consistently more accurate. the "Robotoolz"(comes with remote) is a great tool for nearly the same price but does not have the vertical line nor rotates continually. But the motor moves the spot to any location you want it. For stuff like outdoor form setting it works great for an inexpensive unit.

I already have a DeWalt Laser with automatic level but needed one that would do a slope for large field grading and digging for drain lines. The Johnson AccuLine's accuracy is very close to my $1200 DeWalt and will activate the Dewalt's detector. Plus it has a little slope wheel so I can dial in just the slope I need. After that every stick measurement is the same number from the slope's beginning to end. The Johnson AccuLine is well-made and uses a standard tripod of which I have several. Overall it has been a smart purchase. I am very pleased.
