DEWALT 12 Volt Green Beam Laser DW089LG Review

light implication by stimulated emission of radiation what the hell does that mean it means laser and growing up as a kid when I first saw Star Wars in the movies lasers were things you just dreamed of well today lasers and lightsabers and all that stuff it's all lost their lure to real construction lasers from making grading and excavation measurements to instantly spot-checking level and plumb on a jobsite finished copper tree site as a general contractor and carpenter to me lasers mean versatility meeting efficiency I get a lot done with lasers and they instantly can help me get things done we recently took a look at the walls dw0 89 l g2 12-volt 3x3 60 green beam laser measures boat Obama no 12 by 6 or so and it projects a very bright green laser one horizontal and two vertical 90 degrees from each other the things I like about this it's got a hundred-foot visibility indoor range with an 8-inch accuracy the green laser diode is four times brighter and more visible than red lasers and the fact that it's got a 12 volt battery pack to me is the best part of it you can just charge it and go dEWALT's durability rating on this as an ip65 that means it it resists dust ingress and water spray it has a really strong magnet on the back just two of them and it swivels 360 and the magnets are strong stick them on the things the bottom has a quarter and 5/8 inch thread attachment and this bracket has a screw hole here as well as a nine inch long accessory bracket that allows this thing to kind of clip on to ceiling attachments like a suspended ceiling attachment framework angle iron something like that or there's two screw holes and you can screw this to something and this metal strip here along the side allows the magnet to just clip right on to it and you can slide it up and down to make micro adjustments so I like that and I like the fact that it comes with this bracket because that gives some versatility there is a one-size oversized which rubber overmold and a locking pendulum that helps lock this down and keeps it the internal components from from damaging as far as improvements to this it comes with a molded case with room for an extra battery I like that but there's a lot of extra wasted space and I feel like the DeWalt could have just gone smaller with it maybe a little more smaller footprint and also I could not figure out how to put this back in after I took it out of the box it took me a long time before I can actually get the hood to close and that really bugs me I hate when tool companies do that the wall should somehow consider maybe I don't know labeling it or something just just so you can see how it fits and fits into the box in summary the DW 0 89 LG green laser is a professional-grade laser it's designed to deliver tight accuracy and trusted performance I really like the fact that I don't have to purchase the supposable batteries to power it it's got the 12-volt battery so I'm beaming with excitement with this I'm Rob Roblin we'll see you next time take care
