I work in commercial HVAC and use my torpedo quite a bit. For what I do, I need strong magnets and a spirit level that can withstand a 15+ foot drop onto hard concrete. The savage does his job well. It's well made and doesn't dent too much when it hits concrete, reducing accuracy. I will keep buying this level until I find the best one. This does NOT come with a backlight. So if you're looking for a backlit version, this isn't the one.
