Featuring a massive 5-inch reception height—more than double the industry norm—it ensures rapid laser beam acquisition. Dual front and rear LCDs provide clear numeric elevation data with ±2 inch accuracy, all while its rugged, waterproof design withstands drops up to 10 feet. Enhanced with an anti-strobe sensor, it prevents false readings from construction lighting, making it the go-to tool for millennial managers demanding efficiency, durability, and precision on every project. ## Description The Spectra Precision HL700 Digital Readout Receiver features digital readout of elevation that provides a numeric display of ± 2 inches (±5 cm). Patented reception technology allows nearly infinite resolution for greatest accuracy. The readout is displayed on the large front and rear LCDs and show exactly how far the elevation is from on-grade. Accurate measurements can be made without moving the rod clamp, saving time and increasing productivity. The HL700 has a 5 inch (12.7 cm) reception height, more than double the industry standard, which allows quick acquisition of the laser beam. Six levels of sensitivity (accuracy) offer maximum flexibility to meet jobsite requirements, from rough grading to fine grade checking. Also included is a patented anti-strobe sensor that prevents construction equipment lights from giving faulty signals. The receiver is designed to survive rough construction site conditions. It is waterproof and can withstand accidental drops of 10 feet (3 meters) onto concrete. Highly visible LEDs on the front show red for high and low and green for on-grade. Review: Makes life a lot easier Review: In terms of laser receiver performance, this laser receiver from Spectra Precision (which is a re-branded Seco Apache Storm, Trimble owns both Spectra Precision and Seco) and outclasses not only the LS-80L that my RL-H5A came with, but the recommended Topcon upgrade (the LS-100D) as well. All three sell for about the same price give or take, but the HL-700 is the better performer of the bunch in my opinion. The HL700 is designed to be compatible with all red beam rotary laser levels, more or less. On the topic of compatibility, I'd say that compatibility is good, except for two noticeable areas: you lose the ability to monitor the rotary laser battery status and the height alert of the RL-H5A remotely on the laser receiver (you keep these functions with the Topcon LS-100D). Only you can decide if these are showstopper issues for you. They were not for me, as I tend to keep an eye on the battery status (4 D cells last over 100 hours!) and in my application no one really messes with my rotary laser. For me, I decided to trade off those two alerts for the added features and robust design of the HL-700. Note that I am referring to REMOTE alerts that display on the laser receiver, my Topcon laser itself will NOTICEABLY display that these conditions have happened locally on the rotary laser by flashing all of its panel lights and slowing down its rotation. Low battery occurs once the battery voltage drops below 4 volts, so pretty soon afterwards the rotary laser will just stop working. The only other nits I have to say about the current version of the HL-700 is that you will need a flat head screwdriver to pry open the battery compartment, the latch is way too tight to use your fingers. This is probably intentional, to ensure a strong watertight seal on the battery compartment door rubber gasket. And the included rod bracket should have a molded indicator pointer showing exactly where to read grade. On the HL-700 bracket, you need to realize that the top edge of the rod bracket handle is at the same plane as the indicator on the HL-700. Its OK once you realize this and are used to it, and just read off the top edge of the rectangular handle. One other thing to be aware of is that if you wear polarized glasses outdoors, you might have trouble reading the LCD displays on the HL-700. When I wear my polarized sunglasses, the LCD screen on the front and on the back has all sorts of rainbows on it, making it hard to read. I just peek over the top of the glasses to see the screen, but this might be a problem for you if you wear prescription sunglasses. Keep in mind that this happens with other LCD screens for me too, not just the HL700. Otherwise, for the money the Spectra Precision HL-700 tops anything offered by Topcon. One point to note is that the HL-700 is a much bigger and better built laser receiver than the LS-80L, thus it is noticeably heavier, which is to be expected. When moving it from section to section on your grade rod, it is much easier to fumble it and drop it. Thankfully, it is designed to take a 10 foot drop to concrete and survive, something I cannot say about the Topcon laser receivers. I do not think you will disappointed with the HL-700, it does everything the marketing literature says it does, and does it well even when paired with a non-Spectra Precision red laser (except the remote alerting described earlier). With desertcart's excellent return policy, you have nothing to fear buying it here! ## Features - Highly versatile laser receiver for basic and advanced leveling and aligning applications; Designed for all concrete, general construction and site preparation applications - The HL700 accurately measures elevations across the site and can be used with most red beam rotating lasers; use as a handheld or rod mounted receiver for a wide range of applications - Provides digital readout of elevation with a numeric display of +/- 2 in (+/- 5 cm) on the large front and rear LCDs, showing exactly how far the elevation is from on-grade - Accurate measurements are made without moving the rod clamp, saving time and increasing productivity; User selects units of measure displayed in mm, cm, ft, in or fractional inches - A 5 inch (12.7 cm) reception height, more than double the industry standard, allows quick acquisition of the laser beam; An anti-strobe sensor prevents false readings from site strobe lights ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001G7R4NC | | ASIN | B001G7R4NC | | Batteries | 2 AA batteries required.

It does have a screen on the back so you can see what the front is reading. The Spectra Precisions CR600 has something similar to what you want. **Q: is this compatable with all rotory laser levels?** A: It is "compatible" with all red beam rotary lasers, yes. However, not every feature of your non-Spectra Precision laser may be supported. For example, if you have a Topcon RL-H5A rotary laser level, the HL700 and other Spectra Precision and Apache laserometers will not alert you regarding the height alert (HI) or the low-battery alert that the Topcon laser sends out to the laser receiver. It is an annoyance yes, but not a showstopper for me, as I tend to keep an eye on my batteries and my rotary laser is usually not subject to anyone messing with it. But if you want total compatibility, including these two alerts, you will need to buy a Topcon laser receiver like the LS-100D (which is no where near as nice as this HL700). **Q: Does anyone know the approximate horizontal angle of reception?** A: The reception angle for this laser receiver is plus or minus 45 degrees minimum. **Q: Es compatible con todos los lasers?** A: Si funciona para cualquier tipo de láser lo recomiendo para mi gusto una de las mejores marcas lo que es esa marca y la Hillty eso mejor ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***S on 6 September 2021* Makes life a lot easier ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***O on 14 September 2020* In terms of laser receiver performance, this laser receiver from Spectra Precision (which is a re-branded Seco Apache Storm, Trimble owns both Spectra Precision and Seco) and outclasses not only the LS-80L that my RL-H5A came with, but the recommended Topcon upgrade (the LS-100D) as well.
