BOSCH Self-Leveling Cross-Line Laser GLL2-10
Bosch Laser level makes sure your work is “on the level.”
Self-leveling laser tools are ideal for many professional and DIY installations. Self-leveling lasers are useful for installing tile to hanging shelving. These laser levels ensure that your layout lines and installations are level and or plumb and are great for providing a hands free visual line.
Recently the folks at Bosch sent me their GLL2-10 self-leveling cross-line laserto check out.
First Impression:
The Bosch GLL2-10 self-leveling cross-line laser is lightweight and about the size of a large tape measure. Two AAA batteries power this unit.
It has two independently functioning horizontal and vertical beams provide level and plumb lines. The horizontal level projects a level laser line with 100 degree fan angle, the vertical laser level projects a vertical plumb line along floor, up the wall, and across the ceiling. Both lines stay visible at all times.
The Bosch GLL2-10 self-leveling laser has a “Smart Pendulum Leveling System,” which means it self-levels, senses and indicates when an out-of level condition exists and turns off the laser line, allowing you to correct this condition by adjusting the laser on its stand. This automatic “Out-of-Level Sensing” shows a green LED for “level” and red LED for “out-of-level.”
Using the Bosch GLL2-10 Self-leveling laser level:
I found Bosch GLL2-10 Self-leveling laser level easy to use. The only control is an on / off switch. There are no fancy bells and whistles, just a level and plumb line that is bright enough to see indoors and in most outdoor daylight conditions. The GLL2-10 provided an accurate [ ±7/32-inch] level and plumb line up to 30 feet.
Overall Impression:
For an entry level laser the Bosch GLL2-10 will pay for itself on the first tile or cabinet job. There are no fancy options just and on and off button. I do recommend using this device with a tri-pod.
