Dewalt DW0825L & DW0822L range of Spot + Line laser
Sometimes when using a laser level for interior fit out applications a laser line is best and sometimes a dot or spot laser is the way to go.
The New Dewalt DW0822L & DW0825L range provides both laser lines and dots so giving you basically two lasers in one. The Dewalt provides a bright horizontal and vertical line with large fan angle ideal for internal levelling, and vertical alignment such as installing windows or cabinetry. The laser also produces 5 dots for plumb up and down for transcribing points from floor to ceiling ideal for downlight etc. It also produces three level dots at 90 degrees to each other providing level and square great for kitchen installs and interior wall squaring.
The Dewalt DW0822L models come with “AA” battery compartment and the DW0825L models come with the 12V rechargeable Li-ion battery and charger. Both models can be purchased in either red or green laser outputs. This is denoted by either an “R” or “G” at the end of the model number. The green model provides greater visibility indoors up to 150ft with the dot compared to the red beams 100ft range.
Each model comes with a magnetic bracket which can also be mounted onto a 5/8″ tripod.

CONCLUSIONS
For a highly versatile interior fit out laser you can’t go too wrong with one of these Dewalt models. Im happy to see these models by Dewalt have a pendulum lock to prevent damage when in transit, many other models do not feature this which in my opinion is a negative. Red or Green is the first thing to decide, green laser is definitely clearer at greater distance compared to the red but for most domestic work sites the red is fine. The second choice is “AA” or 12V max. If you are going to use the laser allot then you should seriously consider spending the extra on the 825 model with the Li-ion battery included. However, if you already have a Dewalt 12V max product then you can buy the 822 standard option and plug on your existing li-ion pack.
There are other combination spots and line models on the market but the Dewalt is worth considering with flexible 12V max battery system and build quality.
This model is not available in all markets at present but below are some links to the Amazon US site.
