Review
When leveling has to be laser precise, the DeWalt 18-volt self-leveling rotary laser kit gets the job done. Accurate to within 1/8 of an inch per 100 feet, the laser gives off a high-power beam visible up to 100 feet. An included digital laser detector increases the working range to a distance of 600 feet and helps when trying to locate the laser beam in bright-light conditions. The laser's rotary head offers four speeds. Slower speeds produce a brighter beam, while the higher-speed settings produce a more solid light. The kit is listed as a Class IIIA laser product and complies with all the corresponding requirements and regulations. A wall mount and built-in tripod and floor mounts make setting up the laser kit a breeze, while a protected rotary head and weatherproof design ensure indoor and outdoor durability for any job site. In addition to the digital laser detector, the kit includes a laser target card, which aids in locating and marking the laser beam as it crosses over the card. Magnets hold the card securely to ceiling track or steel studs for quickly determining both level and plumb positions. Red-tinted laser-enhancement glasses also improve laser beam visibility under bright-light conditions or over long distances. A wireless remote control makes one-person setup and operation pain-free and fast. --Carl Thress
