Contractor Hand Held Sight Level (Durable)

Great small lock level for the price. I do handicap ramps so my distance is usually 18’ to 24’. Works fine. Not for long distance but if you need to shooting 50 to 75’ distance and have used a lock level before great for occasional use. Highly recommend.

Not the most accurate tool to determine level, but surprisingly informative. In bright daylight, it's quite easy to determine horizontal heights within an inch over a distance of 20 feet. I think, if I haven't had too much coffee, I could lay a horizontal line across 50 feet out and not be off by an inch. I can wear glasses while using, although seeing the reticle inside becomes more difficult for me.

This little hand-held sight level was the perfect addition to my field marine biology equipment list. My students use these with vertical elevation poles to measure heights of locations in the intertidal zone relative to tidal height. It works well for this purpose.The unit admittedly is lightweight, plastic, and even feels cheap in your hand. But it does the job, as long as you don't have to be too precise. I found to be accurate to within +/- 1-2 cm over a distance of 10 meters or so. Plus if you are on a budget, as most of us are, the price is definitely right!The sight itself includes a simple horizontal bubble-level mechanism and a mirror that reflects the bubble into the view direction. The bubble is quite large compared to the view field, and you have to estimate where the mid-line is, but, as I said before, it's adequate for many jobs. For example, this unit would work just fine if you wanted to make sure that a fence line was level, or similar jobs. It would not, however, be adequate for survey work, or sighting over long distances. A laser level would be greatly preferred for that kind of work.This unit does a good job for what I needed to do, and at an affordable price.4 solid stars.

This thing works great and is pretty durable. Was 17.79 July 11 2023. Less than 9 months and they’ve almost doubled the price

After speaking with a contractor to plan our house build, my husband decided to order one. Our land is not completely flat, so this level assists you on determining the height of the land. It is easy to use, but I would recommend reading the directions first.

I made a 5’ monopod out of PVC pipe and tee, and used another 10’ stick of PVC and a sharpie to make a witness rod. Used this rig to survey my very steep lot to within an inch. This instrument works well, but has no magnification so the range with a witness rod is limited to about 25’.

What else do you want or need? Trying to run a level loop for 15 miles? Yeah, not going to happen... But if you need to know which way the water is going to run across the yard you are going to design a flowerbed for or if that pit you just dug for the french drain is sloped away from the house then this thing will fit right inside your glove box.

Not too bad. Thank you.
