Abstract

A laser level system including a laser level, the laser level projecting at least one laser line. The system also includes a bracket on which the laser level is mounted and a battery pack. The bracket includes a battery pack receptacle into which the battery pack is removably coupled. The battery pack powers the laser level. The battery pack has a maximum initial battery pack voltage (measured without a workload) of at least 18 volts. The system also includes at least one electrical conductor which delivers power from the battery pack in the battery pack receptacle to the laser level.

Claims (45)

1. A laser level system, comprising:

a laser level, wherein the laser level is configured to project a first laser line and a second laser line transverse to the first laser line;

a bracket on which the laser level is mounted;

wherein the bracket includes a battery pack receptacle into which the battery pack is removably coupled;

wherein the battery pack powers the laser level;

wherein the battery pack has a maximum initial battery pack voltage (measured without a workload) of at least 18 volts; and

further comprising at least one electrical conductor which delivers power from the battery pack in the battery pack receptacle to the laser level;

wherein the bracket includes a mounting portion;

wherein the mounting portion comprises at least one magnet; and

wherein the laser level is rotatable relative to the bracket.

2. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductor is a wire.

3. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the battery pack has a capacity of at least 2.0 amp-hours.

4. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the laser level comprises a 3×360 laser level.

5. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the laser level comprises a cross-line laser level.

6. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnet comprises at least four magnets.

7. The laser level system of claim 6 , wherein the at least four magnets each have a rectangular cuboid shape.

8. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the battery pack has a maximum initial battery pack voltage (measured without a workload) of approximately 20 volts.

9. The laser level system of claim 1 , wherein the laser level is rotatable about a central axis of the laser level.

10. A laser level system, comprising:

a laser level; and

a bracket on which the laser level is mounted;

wherein the bracket includes a battery pack receptacle configured to receive a battery pack;

wherein the laser level is configured to be powered by the battery pack;

wherein the laser level is configured to project a first laser line and a second laser line transverse to the first laser line;

wherein the laser level is rotatable relative to the bracket on which the laser level is mounted;

wherein the bracket comprises a mounting portion;

wherein the mounting portion comprises at least one magnet.

11. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the laser level comprises a 3×360 laser level.

12. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the laser level comprises a cross-line laser level.

13. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the at least one magnet comprises at least four magnets.

14. The laser level system of claim 13 , wherein the plurality at least four magnets each have a rectangular cuboid shape.

15. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the battery pack has a maximum initial battery pack voltage (measured without a workload) of at least 18 volts.

16. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the battery pack has a maximum initial battery pack voltage (measured without a workload) of approximately 20 volts.

17. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the laser level is rotatable about a central axis of the laser level.

18. The laser level system of claim 10 , wherein the battery pack has a capacity of at least four amp-hours.

19. A laser level system, comprising:

a laser level;

a bracket; and

wherein the bracket includes at least a base portion, a battery pack receptacle and a mounting portion;

wherein the laser level is mounted to the base portion;

wherein the battery pack receptacle is configured to selectively receive a first battery of a first size and a second battery of a second size;

wherein the second battery pack has a capacity of at least four amp-hours;

wherein the laser level is rotatable with respect to the bracket; and

wherein the laser level is rotatable about a central axis of the laser level.

20. The laser level system of claim 19 , wherein the laser level comprises a 3×360 laser level.
