Leica Geosystems 864427 LINO P5 Point Laser

The Leica Geosystems 864427 LINO P5 Point Laser seems to have received mixed reviews from customers. Some customers mentioned that the laser dot was not very accurate at longer distances and found the device to be limited in its applications, with one customer stating it was only useful for plate leveling for small walls. Another customer mentioned that the device was not suitable for marking angle marks. However, one customer found the device to be a great time saver and excellent for plumbing tasks. They also appreciated the fact that the device always starts level. Another customer reported receiving a unit with a non-functioning on/off switch but had it promptly replaced. In a more detailed review, a customer mentioned buying the device primarily for outdoor use in the garden to have a self-leveling horizontal beam. They found it slightly inconvenient to have to cover the top of the device to avoid accidentally looking into the vertical beam. The customer noted that the on/off switch, which also serves as a lock, was a bit stiff and could accidentally change the position of the device when operating it without using the mounting bracket. However, they praised the stability of the holder, whether using the magnetic function or hanging and screwing it in place. They also mentioned that the device exceeded the stated tolerance of plus/minus 1.5 mm at 5m in their tests. Overall, while the Leica Geosystems 864427 LINO P5 Point Laser has its limitations and some quality control issues, it seems to perform well for specific tasks like plumbing and small leveling projects. Customers also appreciated the stability of the holder and the accuracy of the device within its specified tolerances. **
