Do it when installing!

. After reading the reviews I removed the 2 sided tape and filled both holes at the ends with silicone so that it squirts out a little at the front and I was sure when drying the bottles wouldn't just fall out like that! I then took my good plane out and applied it again with silicone on the back, I glued it to my rig (cleaned the attachment point with alcohol beforehand). Removed the tape after 24 hours and voila!

Pros
  • Worthy performance
Cons
  • It was possible to choose a newer model

Keep them out of the sun

Overall I'm happy with this, but I'd happily buy others. I put them on a PQ tag and the glue doesn't seem to like the heat. I can shift the level, which affects the readings. It also turned out that the bubble disappears when the liquid at the level is heated in the sun. The glass cracks easily and I can cool and read it, but overall I will replace it with another brand.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Trade-in

Broke within 10 miles :(

Unfortunately like many others I bought this for a new RV. Installation was easy and the grip seemed good. However, one of the aligners broke inside the first few 10 miles glass shattered right down the middle nothing more to say maybe i just got a bad one but given the number of other reviews with similar issues it seems more like just poor build quality i will be getting it through another brand substitute .

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • ---

The glass cracked on the first ride. Didn't even last two days.

I installed them and everything looked fine. We drove to our warehouse and I thought the matrix was sunburned (first time and it took 24 hours to install). Then I couldn't see the bubble. The temperature was 91 F. The glass end of the tube broke off and the tube was completely drained. I bought several standard Camco 25523 spirit levels and placed them in various locations. None of them broke, they remain green and relatively accurate. Level with a building level, then set the levels.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Contact seller

The spirit level fell out on the third run!

I put them on my RV to help with alignment - one at the bow and one under the passage through the vault door. I would give five stars because they work well and are very useful, but after the third (very short) ride with them on an RV the nose block was missing all of the bubble glass. It just disappeared! Too bad - it's a little expensive to just hop off. I wouldn't expect that. Maybe the wind has picked up? I'm curious if the seller will offer a replacement. I'll send a message and see what…

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • Crumpled

I have purchased three (3) of these kits and am in the process of purchasing another one. I remove the glass tubes and only use them when I need to park my trailer. The rest of the time I leave the glass level in the van or at my house so it doesn't break on me. With all the problems these spirit levels have, it would be nice to be able to buy a replacement glass spirit level in bulk and just keep replacing them when they break. which happens frequently and in a very short time. PROS: They…

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Construction
Cons
  • Machine Not Included

The spirit level fell out on the third run!

I fitted these to my motorhome to help with leveling - one on the bow and one under the vault door walkway. I would give five stars because they work well and are very useful, but after the third (very short) ride with them on an RV the nose block was missing all of the bubble glass. It just disappeared! Too bad - it's a little expensive to just hop off. I wouldn't expect that. Maybe the wind has picked up? I'm curious if the seller will offer a replacement. I'll send a message and see what…

Pros
  • For leveling cars
Cons
  • Very expensive

Good product and great customer service

I use these on my road trailer to check the level and they work very well. I had them on two different trailers. I put one on its side and the other on my back. They stick very well and are really difficult to remove. Be aware that once you've placed them on the tag, it will take some effort to get them off. I installed them on my first trailer and they have worked flawlessly for all the years I've had one. I installed them on a new trailer and very quickly one of the fluid filled hoses somehow

Pros
  • Size: 3-3/4" x 1-3/8"
Cons
  • I will add later

I have purchased three (3) of these sets and am now purchasing another one. I remove the glass tubes and only use them when I need to park my trailer. The rest of the time I leave the glass level in the RV or in my house so I don't break it. With all the problems these spirit levels have, it would be nice to be able to buy a replacement glass spirit level in bulk and easily replace it if it breaks. which happens frequently and in a very short time. PROS: They really work GREAT! VERY quick, easy

Pros
  • Graduated stick
Cons
  • String is shorter than other picks
