Is there a laser system out there that can go oh about 300-800' for doing fence lines? To get posts in line easier? Didnt know if there were a thing out there that actually worked.
well in the old days we used piano wire.
Mine can. What you are looking for is called "lay down mode". By lay down, they mean the laser can be set on its side. I did 660 feet of fence awhile back over slightly rolling terrain. Set the laser on the highest spot, and the laser sweeps around so it can hit the low spots. If the terrain is level or straight there is also a spot mode, but this is much harder since you have to find that one spot. The lay down mode is better since it sweeps and can cover from the bottom to the top of the post.
I think the Leica Rugby 55 can go over on its side. 800 feet is about 240 metres and a Rugby 100 does 150 metres no problem. If its set in the middle that gives you a 300 metre diameter or 150m in either direction. The working range of the Rugby 200 is stated at 1000ft.
