Good for astronomy [Posted on 2007-07-17]
This product is good for those who want to set circles manually with altitude. (You have to a computer/palm with up-to-the minute altitude/azmimuth data to do this.)
In my testing when mounted to my dobsonian telescope, the angle of the object is dead-on in a 0.8-degree FOV eyepiece! (+/- 0.1 degree error!!!)
Since it's water-resistant and can handle lower temperatures, this can handle observing in tough environments.
This is a wonderful product not only for home-improvement products, but astronomy!

Love it! [Posted on 2007-08-09]
I have the 2ft framing version of this level, and I bought this to fit tighter spaces. It's a great product. I would have given it 5 stars if it were a little bit smaller.
We use them in our factory [Posted on 2007-10-04]
I work in a furniture factory. Between the Smart Tool and the Bosch Protractor, we measure all angles digitally now. Quality and precision are way up. I bet we have 20 of them in the factory now. Tool and fixture makers, engineers and quality control all use them. Why be pretty close when you can be right on.
The other half of the order [Posted on 2008-04-05]
I used this tool when working with the last company I was employed by and it is great. Works even better when you have the magnetic bracket that attaches to it so you can align the sat dish while watching the values on the tool. Unfortunately the company would not ship the bracket to me here in Iraq, so I have to wait until my vacation time in order to pick up the bracket. Bum deal.
Perfect for Finding ANY Angle [Posted on 2008-07-06]
I bought this to use on my 4x4 truck to find some different angles, it works great ;)
