For predominately Outdoor Use – Rotating Lasers tend to be the best pick. They give longer range, higher accuracy & tougher build than alternatives.
Rotating Lasers allow you to use a Receiver to detect the position of the laser beam, allowing you to transfer heights easily as a 1-person operator.
The main downside of Rotating Lasers is that they can only measure in one plane at once. The majority of Rotating Lasers are only built to be able to measure in the horizontal plane to get levels.
Some can be used vertically as well – opening up a range of alignment possibilities as well as some basic squaring. Vertical Rotating Lasers will generally have a dot that comes out at 90° to the Vertical Line to give square, although with a relatively short range in comparison to the Rotating Laser plane.
Line Lasers paired up with Receivers are a “best of both worlds” solution.
They can function similarly to Rotating Lasers giving levels outdoors in broad daylight. They can also be used visibly indoors without needing to rely on the Receiver.
Another major advantage in choosing a Line Laser & Receiver combo is the ability to easily get 90° Squares outdoors, using the 2 Vertical Lines that Multi-Line Lasers project. This is great for paving & similar applications.
The downside of Line Lasers compared with Rotating Lasers for outdoors is shorter range, lower accuracy – but for most people the tradeoff is worth it.
