Review on πŸ“ Huepar Three Plane Self-Leveling Alignment Tool by Raymond Iglesias

Revainrating 5 out of 5

incredible tool for the price.

I've had a few projects that would make my job with a laser level a lot easier, but I didn't really want to pay a few hundred bucks for projects where I was trying to save money by doing it myself I started changing my mind after seeing the Huepar B21CG for around $100. My first project was installing a chain link fence. It was outside, but I had to match levels to other fence lines, and there were a few bushes in the area that made the line difficult to trace. About 12 feet away, I was able to use this from the outside to not only level and tie down the brick patio area that was supposed to abut the fence, but also confirm the height of the fence's top railing as I walked in. Having a laser setup behind me where I could just look at the boards and make sure they were still straight was a huge advantage. The light was clearly visible from the cloudy sky above him. My next project was going to be in direct sunlight and I was afraid I wouldn't see the laser. It also had to be on different levels as I had to excavate ground levels to repair and expand the pond. Due to my concerns, I ordered the LR-5RG Laser Detector and received it today. Of course I had to "test" it to make sure everything worked. So I put the batteries in the receivers, turned them on, experimented with different settings to get comfortable with the device, turned on the B21CG and put it into pulse mode as instructed. Even though I was only a few meters inside, the detector started screeching as soon as I approached the plane - it was awesome! So I put the laser on a table outside and went for a walk. I had to stop somewhere over 100 feet away as I would be in my neighbor's yard, but he had no problem picking up a signal at that point, although the level was almost invisible to the naked eye - even after 20 feet. I also liked that the case that came with the laser had room and space for the detector and its mounting plate. Overall I am very impressed and can't wait to complete the pond project. Thank you for making such a great tool available at an affordable price for those of us who are not professional surveyors or contractors but still like using the right tool for the job.
