Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this to help level a permanent wood foundation wall system. It allowed me to quickly and accurately place foundation wall sections without needing a level. The last wall piece joined up perfectly to the first piece I laid.
When using this outdoors in bright, direct sunlight, it only has an effective range of about 10 or possibly 15 feet with a lot of squinting. On overcast days or when using it in shadows I was able to pick out the line from 25-30 feet away. At night or when using this indoors, there is no difficulty in picking up the line at any (reasonable) distance.

Self-leveling and fully automatic, the PLS360 Tool from Pacific Laser Systems is a new-generation layout tool that's able to deliver a full-circle laser line without relying on any sensitive or complicated moving parts. Durable and easy to set up, this laser tool system provides precision results indoors and outdoors to help you get a variety of jobs done quickly and efficiently.
Simplify Layout Tasks and Increase ProductivityThere are lots of construction applications that demand 360-degree performance, including installation of cabinets, acoustic ceilings, foundations, and swimming pools, and the PLS360 delivers fast, error-free setup to help you accomplish whatever job is at hand with precision.
With the PLS360, there's none of the tricky knob adjustments or easy-to-damage moving parts that can make rotary laser setup a big time commitment. There's simply a single-button that provides access to a visible indoor working range of 100 feet. This means you can project bright lines that are easy on the eyes across a full circle with a 200-foot diameter. The PLS360 is accurate within 1/8-inch over 100 feet.
Packaged without a detector, this tool is best suited for interior work like installing small ceilings in hotels, school rooms, and office buildings where fast set up is required. For effective outdoor use, the PLS 360 is also available as a Kit (includes detector, tripod, and rod) and as a System (includes detector). The SLD detector allows this tool to deliver reliable readings over extended distances--up to 250 feet--and in bright light conditions.
PLS Benchmark Dampening Ensures Consistent, Reliable Layout ResultsLike all PLS Point and line laser alignment tools, the PLS360 is fully self-leveling, and it takes full advantage of the patented PLS pendulum design and magnetic dampening to deliver real, usable results. Dampening is the settling down effect on the laser beam, and thanks to this advanced technology, all PLS point and line lasers settle down instantly when moved to a new layout point.
Additionally, this system compensates for job site vibrations caused by compressors, generators, and other heavy equipment, preventing the laser point from "jumping" around and ensuring that your laser delivers accurate, usable information. This helps your team get jobs done right the first time to save you time and money.
Durable Construction and Accessories for Career-Long SavingsAll PLS tools are designed and manufactured to meet strict quality control guidelines, and the PLS360's workmanship is backed by a one-year manufacturer warranty for dependability you can rely on. Plus, if your laser tool ever does need to be serviced, PLS offers fast, 48-hour factory turnaround on repairs or replacements to help ensure that your PLS laser line tool continues to provide accurate performance and improved productivity for the full duration of your career.
This laser line tool measures 3 x 5 x 4-1/2 inches and weights just two pounds for portability around the job site. It also comes with a hard-shell carrying case to help protect it from the rough realities of construction work. For your convenience, the PLS360 is powered by three standard "D" batteries (included), and it can run over 35 hours between battery changes.
