Looks pretty nifty.

Over $500 seems like an expensive addition to the tool kit

That looks handy, could have done with that on the floor I've just done. Worst screed I've ever seen.

i would like them to overcome the being able to see the lasers beam in daylight problem, first before all this gimmicky stuff if you listen to the eastern lady she say for INDOOR-USE and she needs to add SLIGHTLY DARK, lol, i love the look and idear of my bosh 3 but its crap most of the time,as the work-site is to bright .........

Trade tiler sells some glasses that supposedly enhance the beams making them easier to see in bright areas. I think they're around £10

Floor lasers are fab invention, as an idea, but pretty useless in reality.
Can't beat a stainless steel straight edge.

i sometimes think they are a good prop for putting your customer at ease in the first few moments of starting a job ,if they can see you have invested in a bit of hight -tech ,they THINK its better than low -tech pencil/chalk lines, WE ALL KNOW DIFFERENT ,and sometimes if peeps have to much new/tech you can think ( ALL THE GEAR AND NO IDEA ) LOL
