Pros:
- As far as what it does for the price it's a great laser
- The laser is level and plumb.
- Green laser visibility is great. I haven't tested it out in the sun or for long distance
- Comes with vertical plumb dots. For a laser at this price, that is a great feature to have. Not sure if there are any green lasers around this price point with that feature. I haven't used it yet but that was one of the two reasons I chose this laser
-Has the tilt feature and lock and unlock function. Not something I would use in my line of work.
-Free 2 year warranty when I bought mine
Cons:
-You need the tripod. It is heavy and bulky. I regret not getting the tripod
-The magnet it comes with isn't strong enough to hold it's weight on surfaces like cornerbead
-Laser thickness is 1/8" thick at the point where it comes out. Gets to under 1/16" as it goes higher
-Uses 4 AA batteries.
-Plumb dot has a flare around it. Shouldn't affect accuracy but if your eyes aren't sharp anymore it might trick you a bit
All in all good laser for the price and all of the extra features make it even more attractive. I recommend it due to price point and features.
Compared to my Dewalt DW088 it's just as plumb and level.
I was sent a used/repacked tripod. It was dinged and covered in dirt/dust. It was obviously used in the field and sent back to the company. The company refused to admit this after I sent numerous pictures. They did however offer 50% off that item which I took to prevent me from having to ship the used tripod back and wait on a new one.
Very nice tool, well crafted, easy to read. Stands up to all large name brands. 100% satisfied.
What is really strange about this poduct is that they have considered quite a lot of the obvious requirements that you would want from but failed totally in the execution of making the icon buttons visible. You simply cannot see the FIVE black-on-black icons to operate the laser measurer. Would be totally useless in a low light environment ....unless you have committed where each function button is to memory. See the two photographs attached to this review.
I used the S03CG to level my bathroom floor joists. It worked flawlessly and was highly accurate, all at price far under all the high priced popular brands. Questions I had were promptly answered by customer service! Highly recommend!
My son recommended this product to me, and I’m glad I bought it. I have many projects coming up and using this on on my first was Great! I would recommend it to anyone. Thanks
It's incredible, my work has reached a new level with this tool. Powerful beams are visible in any light. Not a substitute for leveling floors. And the fact that it can work with a battery and batteries is very cool.
The NT411G cross line laser comes with a practical, padded case.
The operation seems intuitive and simple to me.
Everything is also described in understandable German in the printed user manual.
In my living room, the laser line is clearly visible over 10 m.
I can't comment on larger rooms.
Outdoors I could see the laser line up to 10 m at dusk.
Outdoors and in bright sunlight, it was difficult to see the laser line from 3-5m.
The supplied glasses with green glass showed me no discernible use.
The included receiver plate helps to see the laser line a little better in bright sunlight.
That's why I ordered the matching LR5RG receiver.
With this receiver it is possible to locate the laser line at 20 m and more in pulse mode, even in bright sunlight.
My property is only 22 m wide, so I can't comment on the maximum range with the receiver.
Overall I'm happy with the NT411G.
This is especially true when working outdoors in daylight, in combination with the LR5RG receiver. For the receiver I made some modifications in the original case as the picture shows; bad for warranty reasons but good for handling. 😉
It’s working perfect, battery about 5 hours in total but thanks to the remote control I charge it every few days. Mini Jack is very handy and all the other accessories as well. It might not be as tough built as brands -four times more expensive- but with bit of extra cautious I’m sure it will work just fine. I’ve seen review about not being waterproof so I’ll keep it definitely far from the water, but so as the DeWalt that I own. Over all I’m very happy with the product and would definitely recommend it.

Perfect, very versatile, no cons up to me.
OUTDOOR
I read many negative reviews on rotary laser issues in outdoor sunny day use & it turns out those are mistaken. It does work very well (beyond the limits specified 200' or so), just think to turn on the PULSE MODE !
5-20 knots wind is an issue though. The laser box is very light and vibrate easily in the wind, even on an heavy stand) so it makes the reading quite hard at more than 30-50 feet but keep hope b/c an optional heavy container would solve the issue. Huepar, you can do it! But we also can make one ourselves in the meantime. Just search for inspiration in outdoor light fixture similar to "Outdoor Modern Cube Bubble Glass & Metal Integrated" and adapt it for your stand (and add strapped weights to it).
My first project to use this for was to grind down some high spots on a floor. After grinding for a while I realized the far end of the room was about 15mm lower than the area I needed to grind down about 5mm. Setting the level at that location highlighted the raised area so I could grind without having to remeasure and mark the high spots over and over again. The kids also enjoyed stomping the dust on the floor and seeing it scatter in a puff of green light.
I am very satisfied with the purchase, I will replace the old nameless one with this new Huepar.
Extremely fast delivery.
I'm still following your shop, keep being professionally green

I ordered this laser to assist with our kitchen installs. Having never used one before there is a learning curve but it has helped just in the past two weeks I've owned it! I think it's worth spending the extra money on all the features of this model. At least for what we do. I did return the tripod as it was not stable. The yellow pole version I think is better overall.

So this is the Huepar LR-5RG Receiver to use "outdoors" with the laser. It makes the laser simple to find in direct sunlight up to 200 ft. This is battery operated and runs on
2 AA batteries for 20 hours. The LR-5 weighs 5 0z(140grams)
***For reference the LR-6RG receiver uses 9v battery and offers 70 hours battery life & it weighs almost 1 LB @15 0z. (420grams)***
I chose the LR-5RG for ease of AA batteries and lighter weight.
The arrows tell you up or down or level & works with laser in "PULSE" mode.
The Receiver attaches to a grade Rod ,or my choice, just a simple 2x4 Story Pole.
Extremely Satisfied - I have 30 years of Masonry Contracting experience.
