Simply put, when certain electrons are stimulated, they give off a beam of light. When mirrors or prisms collect this light and point it in one direction, the result is a laser beam. Laser levels project a beam of light that can be used as a visual chalk line when a straight and level reference point is needed.Jun 8, 2009
Can you use any laser receiver?
First of all, not all laser receivers work with all laser levellers. Line lasers must have pulse mode for a line laser receiver to pick them up, even then some lasers pulse at a different rate to others, so one line receiver may not work with all of them.Feb 8, 2016
Do laser detectors work with all lasers?
Different kinds of laser levels will only work with specific types of laser detectors. For example, rotary lasers will not work with line laser receivers. Also, because red and green lasers operate at different frequencies, they require laser receivers that are tuned to their specific frequency.Mar 26, 2020
