20V MAX 3x360 Green Line Laser

Extended Runtime Laser

DeWALT

The 20V MAX 3x360 Green Line Laser (DCLE34031) provides users the benefit of 11 hours of runtime, enabling long, uninterrupted time on the job. The laser is ideal for framing, drywall, MEP, building and remodeling applications and is compatible with MAX 2.0Ah, 4.0Ah, and 5.0Ah batteries. Incorporating green beam diode technology, this tool delivers optimal visibility in bright environments and on extensive jobsites. The laser provides accuracy of up to 1/8 inch at 30 feet with a 130 feet visible distance, and on average, a 330 feet max range when used with the DW0982G green line laser detector (sold separately). The individual laser line “on/off” buttons put the user in control of which lines to activate with the benefit of extending run time when only select lines are in use. For convenience, the laser also utilizes last mode memory that illuminates the beams last used to quickly begin work again. A pendulum lock is designed to help safeguard internal components while transporting the laser between tasks and jobsites. For more information, visit dewalt.com.
