I had great 5 beam laser made by Robotoolz. The size of a 30′ tape, fit in my belt. Used it all the time. When it broke, I saw the same design online, bought out by Porter Cable. Turns out they inflated it!! it’s the size of a Bosch jigsaw! I’ll keep the lunchbox sized thing for the crew, but need one for my briefcase/belt.
Anyone have a recommendation for a good small 5 beam? Dan

What abought the PLS3, it's only slightly larger than a 30' tape.
You can still get the small Porter Cable in a 3 beam. Those bigger ones suck because of the mechanical leveling method, as compared to the pendulem of the small ones.
Hilti makes the best laser bobs. I have seen them fall 3 stories and still dead on. Plus they will recalibrate for free, I believe. Pretty pricey though.
PLS 5 is a 5 beam self leveling laser. Fit well in your briefcase, but you'd need a fanny pack to keep it on your belt. They also make a PLS5 that works outside.
