Review on Bosch GCL100 80CG: Enhancing Precision with Green Beam Cross Line Points by Tim Beardsley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bright, crisp lines

I compared three green line lasers and this one is the clear winner for me. I'm not a professional, but I'm picky about the quality of the laser line. I'm looking for a clear edge line. I don't care how thick the line is as I will be referring to the margin. The blurred edge doesn't work for me. There is a distinct difference between this model and the Bosch base green laser model that made it fail immediately. Now when I compared this model to a competitor brand with a similarly priced 12V battery, this model has a clearer line, the same thickness and brightness of the line. What is decisive for me is the clarity of the lines. The comparable model range also has a slightly pulsating brightness, while this one has a stable linear brightness. There are extra points for plumb points, micro dials, Bluetooth controls including brightness adjustment. For me this is an obvious choice.

Pros
  • Integrated VisiMax technology for maximum beam brightness, optimized energy efficiency and long-term tool reliability
Cons
  • Big and chunky
