Automatic gyroscope laser level

[Dan]

I might get one then I was looking out for some negative feedback on it but it doesn't seem to have issues. For the price it'll be handy for what tiny bits of tiling I do if nowt else.

I've had one like this for about 5 years, it's been brilliant.

I have the Bosch Professional GCL2-55 and used it for a 3 wall backsplash with pencil tile in a kitchen and several sets of shelving that went around a corner or two... This is not the best model, but it worked great. Worth every penny. Still double checked it with various levels... it was pretty much on the level.

If it was pretty level, especially over a short distance, then I wouldn't agree that's its worth every penny.

Yeah but all your sockets are wonky

The laser is perfect, the wonky sockets are due to my bad workmanship.

it was on the level... had no problems with it. My first one and it was pretty easy to use.

Easy to check accuracy. Mark a line on a wall close to the laser and one on a wall much further away. Move the laser to the far position, turn it through 180 degrees and line it up with the mark nearest it. The difference between the original mark and the laser beam is the error over twice the distance between the two positions.

Huepar is good kit, one of mine is a Hue!

It's been excellent and will Project a fair way and will do all around which is very useful for kitchens.
Mine didn't come with a tripod but I have an old one that came from another laser that was the same mount.

Yes agreed, Huepar are a good reliable green laser for the price and you don't need the all signing dancing version. Spend any spare money then on Huepar mounting brackets. There are a more than a few options.

I bought this one from Amazon back in 2021 and wouldn't be without it . . . .






Also bought a tripod to go with it from Amazon. It can be a bit of a faff adjusting the 3 leg heights right but worth it in the end.




I'm pretty certain it was less than 50 quid for the lot.

I have a couple of adjustable props, a bit like light weight acrow props, that I use instead of a tripod, if I'm indoors. These have 1" vertical steel tubes that the magnets in my DeWalt level will clamp on to at the desired height.

Yes I have a pole as well, they are very useful!
Mine was a cheap one from Toolstation but still does an excellent job.

Mine was yet another useful item from the middle of Lidl.

Holy sugar! 16 effin lines!! Didn't even know they exists that did that. That's a tilers wet dream! I must go post this!

Bet when I do they all say they've got one but I swear I've never seen on that did that!

Hang on is there a blank side?

Edit; yeah I see so that would be the side you match up to something existing in a room that you'd want the rest match.

For tiling that's still fine on a stand or something as the door wall you would address on its own just from a datum point or line. Which once you've done 3 walls is, well if you've done it level any one million grout lines.

Flipping ebay and amazon saying 4d really really annoys me. People should leave bad feedback saying they never felt it activated any 4th dimension.

The if it gave off those exact lines the laser wouldn't work surely. Unless you can spin the top but not sure the point of that.

Mate when you next set it up can you do me a short video for the forum using your phone. Then upload it to the forum and I'll add it to this thread. I'll try find the same thing on amazon as I haven't got ebay affiliate going yet but eventually will have a "brilliant Ebay and amazon buys over the years" thread and go find existing ones and also find new gems as they are on there.

A cousin of mine has one that cost north of £2000 with the gear that goes with it, and has a range of at least a km. Uses it with his 22 tonne digger.
