Makes accurate lay out a breeze
By Christopher Kennel
I've been using this laser on the job for about 5 months now and consider it to be an essential lay out tool. I primarily remodel older houses that are rarely square and/or plumb. This means that I usually have to shim or even re-frame walls, especially in kitchen and bathroom areas. Nothing has reduced the time I spend dealing with out of square situations and general layout tasks more than the PLS 90. In fact, I haven't made a 3-4-5 layout triangle since I got this laser.This is a specialist laser designed for layout applications, which it handles exceedingly well. The beams are oriented to draw two vertical lines that are exactly perpendicular. Initially I was concerned that they might not spread well across a floor, especially one with debris, extension cords, and air hoses lying about. Even with the unit set directly on the floor, the beam is angled in such a way that it picks up right behind (within an inch or two) most low obstructions. The engineers who designed the fan angle of the laser did a surprisingly good job with this.If I have a good wall that I can use as a reference, I'll start with that and use the laser to find perpendicular lines. From those I can find additional parallel lines. If the house is so messed up that I don't have a single straight wall, I use the laser to establish the best straight line and base the rest of my layout off of it. I still get out the chalk box to mark my lines once the control points are set by the laser, at least during the framing stage.The laser is fairly bright and tight (about 1/8 of an inch wide), so it's easy to see the layout and make adjustments to it. A detector isn't needed for most interior applications, but the beams will disappear in bright conditions. There's a micro adjust knob that can be used to shift the beams to the right or left instead of having to rotate the entire unit. The laser's self-leveling system is fast and accurate (I checked it against my Topcon green beam laser).Because kitchens and bathrooms have a lot of tile and cabinetry, it's much more critical that these areas get laid out well. The PLS 90 has saved me so much time in two ways. The initial layout is much faster because it makes establishing right angles and straight lines instantaneous and because it's so accurate, it saves time down the road because less re-work and framing adjustment are required. Work just seems to go so much smoother when everything is properly aligned and the result looks tighter too.Because the beam has a wide spread area, I've used it to establish lines across ceilings for lining up recessed lighting or cut lines for drywall demolition. On the floor, I've used it to place nailing lines for re-nailing down old subfloors.

So much easier than using a tape measure
By A. Url
Wow, this thing really works well. It is so much simpler than using a 3-4-5 measurement. It worked exactly as stated and it saved me a bunch of time framing my house. Sadly, it also showed me that the contractor who put up my exterior ICF walls was not to good at using a level or determining square.Pros: Self leveling which is really sweet, bright lasers work extremely well for interior framing, flooring and plumbing.Cons: Lasers could offer better vertical output angle. It does not illuminate the ceiling for several feet out from the unit. This is problematic in small rooms when you are trying to establish your top plate or drywall seams. Battery life seems short. They claim 30 hours between changes, however, even though the lasers are really bright for the first couple of hours, they dim to unusable after several hours of continuous use. I have changed batteries four times and I have only used it for a month on weekends.
