Tool Reviews

You can access our tool reviews in many different ways. Here, we organize tool reviews by tool type. This includes power tool reviews and hand tool reviews as well as reviews of air tools and pneumatics. We also cover hardware, outdoor, and industry-specific products. All are organized by specific tool type. You can also check out our tool reviews by the tool brands or manufacturer, but if you’re looking for a circular saw, hammer drill, or other particular tool by tool type, then this section will get you to everything you need. Use the dropdown in the menu above to further refine your selection. With that you can get to a listing of exactly the right tools you’re interested in. Pro Tool Reviews covers and/or reviews over 400 tools each year, making this your one-stop shop for everything tool-related. If you want to know what the best tool in a particular category is, you’re in the right place.

CST/berger RL25HCK and RL25HVCK Self-leveling Rotary Lasers Preview

CST/berger RL25HCK and RL25HVCK Self-leveling Rotary Lasers

We checked out the CST/berger RL25 series of self-leveling rotary lasers back in June of this year at Bosch’s 2012 Media Event. CST/berger is well-known for making serious laser levels and the USA-based (Illinois) company is always on our radar for innovative and trending laser technology. The new RL25H Exterior and RL25HV Interior/Exterior Self-Leveling Rotary Lasers are particularly of interest to us because they take the power of rotary laser and package them into a more durable product with less moving parts. These are the products you use on a regular basis if you’re doing any sort of grading, leveling or excavating work. CST/berger’s RL25 lasers are IP56-rated and have a very durable overmold. They scream “heavy duty”. Of course, they can also reach 2000 feet and have an accuracy of 3/32″. That’s tight enough tolerance for all but the most amazingly stringent applications. There are two models we checked out, the RL25H with a horizontal-only beam and the RL25HV with both horizontal and vertical lasers.
