Pacific Laser Systems

I met with our account manager from Pacific Laser Systems last week and learned a lot about their Laser Level Products. Just when you think you have a good handle how lasers can save time and increase accuracy, you learn a bit more. Pacific Laser Systems lasers seem to me to have a nice fit in the marketplace. All of their laser products are self-leveling and are built very sturdy. The body of the lasers are nicely built with heavy-gauge material and I can imagine they'd handle a few drops to the floor and maybe only need a laser recalibration or adjustment depending on how far it was dropped and what it landed on.

Each time I work with a Laser level, I realize just how amazing they really are. Saves time and increases accuracy at the same time! They are just like front-end loaders on tractors in that you seem to always be finding new uses for them every time you use them. I've seen contractors use laser levels indoors and out, and lately have heard of other users such as the people that install rigging for stages, such as light and speaker rigging for concerts! I've even heard of manufacturers using laser levels in manufacturing where they use the laser to show the exact spot to cut material, or fasten parts, or even for clearance within the warehouse itself. The uses for these levels are almost infinite.
