Throw out your chalk lines and trash your plumb bobs—-Crossfire is all you'll need. Just place it where you need it and the Crossfire levels itself for accurate straight, level lines every time. It's spendier than Black & Decker's Sight-Line model, but you do get more for your money, and its "cool factor" is high. First, it levels itself automatically, eliminating the need to squint at bubble vials and ensuring accuracy, something we've never been fond of. But what distinguishes this laser is that it projects two lines at once—-one vertical, one horizontal—-and the position of each can be adjusted individually. So if you need a square work area, the smooth rack-and-pinion mechanism will let you create it easily. We think this is the perfect tool for laying floor tiles or hanging a suspended ceiling. Once you've got your hands on it, you'll find dozens of uses around the house.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

From the Manufacturer
Black & Decker raises the technology bar even higher in the laser level category with its new Crossfire Auto Laser Level. The power tool laser category exploded two years ago when Black & Decker introduced the first auto-leveling laser with the Bulls Eye. Black & Decker continues to lead the laser category with this auto-leveling feature and other laser innovations. The Crossfire emits level lines to take the guesswork out of getting your projects straight and level whether you are installing picture frame moldings or window boxes on adjacent walls, hanging pictures or laying tile. The Crossfire eliminates the need for chalk lines, carpenter levels or straight edges to create and mark a straight line. The Crossfire projects a horizontal level and vertical(plumb) line across the room and on to the wall it faces. These lines can be adjusted to intersect and create a square work area. The Crossfire hangs on a screw or rests on an innovative wall-mount system that attaches to the wall with small pushpins.

Customer Reviews

good homeowner laser
The B&D Laser Level is a good laser for small areas and short runs. The laser is only projects a bright line to about 15 ft then drops off dramatically. The line is a lot thicker than other laser lines out there. The attachment chasis is a bit confusing to use with the spikes that come out and must be set into the wall. This is difficult on finished surfaces. I should have got the PLS 2.

BDL310S v. BDL170
This is a great product with 2 comments that would've made it a 5 out of 5. The first was mentioned in another review which is that the nut that a tripod screw is supposed to engage is recessed too far. I have 2 tripods, neither of which could reach. The saving grace here is that the bottom has a magnet in it so I was able to set it on the tripod somewhat securely. The second is that it would've been nice to have been able to lock down the self leveling laser (basically the laser is hung freely in the case)so that if you wanted to sight it on an angle you wouldn't get the dotted line laser telling you it's not level. You can work around this.
I was going back and forth between this device and the BDL170 and am happy I got this one. I used it for the first time to put up a chair rail around the room that still had furniture in it and across windows with trim. I was able to move the tripod w laser to various spots, rotate the laser to get the next section after resetting the height to the last section (I was on a rug so height varied) and when i got back to where i started it was dead on. I'd still be measuring and compromising (and not writing this review) had I not had this tool.

I don't know how I would've done this with the BLD170, particularly when it came to going across the window trim (which is raised from the wall) since it would've broken line of site for a device flush with the wall.

To net it out, I'm very happy with this tool. and if you're doing corners or adjacent walls with the same line and there is anything on the wall to break line of site (like raised trim), this is the better unit. And you can do non-level lines with a little fanagling(sp?).

Very Accurate!!
I set up two level reference points using my Zircon Electronic Water Level and my best 4' level, then I checked them with my new Crossfire Laser Level. It was right on the money!! Very nice tool.
