Is this the best laser for the money?
I look to see how it holds up and even may have broken it in the process.
The laser would suit a lot of scenarios, from people in the trades, diy and handyman.

At least you pushed the test at the max, we know the limit of the product, thank you for this!
Great video. I'm sold on this laser level.
your passion says it all!
I'm close to pulling the trigger on my first laser level. I work alone and this would help immensely with a million one-handed level and fasten in place tasks. This sucker seems to really stand alone in the field for value per dollar. Not the best build quality as the US and German brands, but as far as features and price...you can always buy another and still be ahead of the game. By then, the next generation will arrive.
Thanks for the honest review.
I came across this brand a couple years ago and have been using it with no problems. I do still have a Bocsh. I have the B03CG pro model and was considering getting this model you just reviewed which thank you for doing it btw. A little disappointing about the moisture getting in the laser. However I will say I have dropped mine a couple of times and it still works great. I did have to re-calibrate it at one point which It’s very easy and done by removing the towers which expose a brass Allen bolt and dialing it in. Good to see one of the better channels do a review on it and please let me know what Huepar said about the IP54 rating. It’s only $250 in the states so I think I’ll pull the trigger on it thanks again!
Hey Steffen. Good to hear yours is going great. Can’t go past the Bosch lasers either.
I’ll have to give the calibration a look. Good to know we can do it ourselves.
For that price, it’s really hard to go past it. A few guys at work have now used this and will probably get one as well.
What sort of work are you doing with the laser?
@@AddictedtoTools What don’t I use it for 😂. I first started using them for control lines to lay out Interior Spaces/interior build out wood and metal stud. It can obviously be used for laying out your track or plate for walls But I find it great for squaring up rooms to snap control lines to pull my lay out numbers off(Wall placement). I.e. to square up a room we would snap two intersecting control lines and then pull a 3-4-5 or 6-8-10 To square them up and then pull all of our numbers off of those control lines. The laser does the same thing by shooting a perfect right 90 angle for you eliminating the need for the3-4-5 method or Pythagoras formula. I use it for setting cabinets, setting doors, or trim work like chair rail etc.. i’m constantly finding new uses for it. There is a Russian guy on CZcams that actually shows you how to calibrate Huepar lasers by removing the towers it’s a huge benefit to these lasers and extremely easy. FYI I have a Huepar rangefinder as well that is extremely accurate and intuitive has more features then the Bosch blaze with a camera for targeting at far distances for under $200 it’s worth taking a look at. Thanks again I really enjoy your videos let us know if Huepar gets back to you.
Thank you for willingly offering to sacrifice your tool to test its durability. I presume you contacted Huepar about this to get a warranty replacement. It would be telling if that was successful.
after watching different reviews on laser levels , this is a real nice laser , maybe more then I need , and I need a plumb bob , so the 2 line's crossing , Daaaa ,lol , thanks for you reviews
No worries mate. Let me know how you go and what laser your get 🍻
Update: I ordered the S04CG It arrived yesterday I got it on sale for $199 which is unbelievable. This thing is actually incredibly well built imo for the price.. And I’m comparing that to my Bosch and my B03CG pro I don’t plan on taking a hose to it though. The remote that comes with it can be little finicky but works well and I like that it also recharges with the type C USB the app for my iPhone works flawlessly great feature. I found that the microadjustment stand works a lot better when you use it with the magnetic mounting plate instead of the tripod. Looking forward to your next laser review and throwing the Huepar in.
Shit where did you get it? Amazon us?
@@mgren3727 No Huepar_ Kingdom there a authorized Huepar dealer on eBay. They had it on sale I’ve never seen it that low before anywhere. About six months ago I purchased the receiver from them for my Huepar B03CG Pro so I was familiar with the seller and yes I am in the US. As a sidenote I have a Huepar rangefinder that is twice as solid and nice as my Bosch blaze. It’s got a nice size LCD screen has a video camera for targeting etc. I’d like to see him do a review or a tool duel With rangefinders.
@@steffendetrick9403 how does it go outside with the receiver happy with accuracy? I’m looking at buying one. Most jobs are between 3-10m distance but outside in Aus with the sun the receiver is a must
@@MrPandatheman It works well outside with the receiver I would definitely recommend purchasing it.
love your vids , you make me laugh , your so real ... 2 thumbs up
Cheers Danny. I appreciate. 👍
In chemistry class we had those little platforms. They were called Lab Jacks.
Scissor lift
Great review. Just wondering - the laser beams across your face multiple times. Is this just not an issue? Thanks.
did you put some sealant on the parts befor mounting them back? i am getting this huepar, but the 3 d model, geat that you see the angle when you want the 1cm per meter waterflow for pipes underground
I got this lever around 3 years ago, ive spent over 3800 GBP on Hilti Levels over the last 33 years. This huevar S04CG is by far the best deal ive had.
That’s great to hear. I’d have a hard time going to something more expensive
@@AddictedtoTools TBF there hasn't been much of a choice, the Hilti's lasted around 7 year each unit, I couldn't get them repaired so at 700 to 1200 GBP per laser, I'm getting a great deal with this Hauper
Hi, I am curious if you are still using S04CG laser if so have you noticed any noticeable build quality issues after all those years? Thanks in advance for your answer.
Any chance you can give us an update after one year of use? :)
It seems to be a nice INDOOR tool 🙂
Puedes hacer un vídeo de como funciona el huepar cg621 porfas
In case I or anyone else missed it, did it dry out and can continue to work okay?
Pretty nice features - same price point as the CPI
Yeah true.
Me gustaría que me ayudes con el 621 Cg huepar porfa en modo manual está desnivel es así o porque
I have the 3 beam. I checked the accuracy. 3/8" over 135 feet difference when spun 180 degrees. Not that I would use it for such a distance. I would use a builders level for that.
That sounds accurate
Not everyone has a 135 ft long level. Must be a b**** to carry on your rig. 😁
Seriously though if the laser was out and you turned it 180 would you divide your 3/8 error by half or multiply it by 2?
I'm trying to think outside the box but nothing's happening. 🤯
@@randywl8925 Yeah, I think I split the difference, as in I cut 3/4 in half.
I have a Huepar B03CG and just dropped it off my 2 step ladder and caught it and that's it, it says it is turned on but it clearly now has a loose contact and the laser will only flash on if I give it a bump with my hand otherwise it's dead. Worked great for the last 6 months... but I hadn't dropped it until now. 😔 Not good internal connections. Looks like a return to Amazon is the only solution.
How did things turn out?
Probably not well after 6 months.
I only want that lifting base. Ca t find it Anywhere.
Wish they could sell that separately
Would buy 2 of them
Hey mate, where are you located? I’m in the middle of setting these up to sell separately in aus
Never heard of the brand until now. Great innovation with 4 knobs. What was the height difference between the 2 horizontal lines? Or does it change on distance? Ps. You see Bunnings got the new Compact Dewalt 360 18v.
the bottom mounted light is raised 1.5 cm from the ground and the difference between the 2 horizontal line is 8 to 10 cm. you can't change the distance between the two laser lines but you can adjust the height of the laser using the bracket that comes with it
You usually get what you pay for? I’m not impressed with all the issues and things that don’t work!
Compare them with their receivers
What is the benefit of the second horizontal level line? I believe Huepar makes a similar model with just 3 orthogonal laser lines, rather than four. I don't understand how the second horizontal one could be of use. Thanks.
I bought this laser and immediately found out the valuable reason for the second (lower) horizontal laser: its close proximity to the bottom of the device allows shooting a line very close to the floor or to whatever horizontal surface the device is sitting on. In my case, I was able to shoot a low baseboard and cabinet kick platform in directly, rather than by offsetting from a benchmark.
@@michael.schuler its basicaly made for all kind of flooring work, and the 4-th lower plan its amazing to have on a laser, i also have the 3plan milwake and i was so disapointed they didnt had the 4-th plan for my flooring work, so i purchase the huepar
4 lines no needed
U beter get 3
@klinteriors74 With 3 laser lines, try to shoot a level reference just several inches from the floor. The usefulness of the 4th line will become clear.
So what are you saying? You shouldn't have a bath with your laser?
Ok tu l'as mi à rude épreuve, c'est bien, t'as fait ton SHOW! J'ai mi un pouce en bas, non pas pour la marque, mais pour ta présentation où tu manipules le laser comme si t'avais une balle entre les mains, sans même connaitre les consignes de respect d'utilisation de cette appareil! Et un conseil, quand tu présente un appareil d'une marque c'est toujours bien vu de parler que de cette marque en mettant en avant les + et les - des versions précédentes!
أحسنت صديقي كم اشتريته
How does this compare to their GF360G?
I'm using this level more then 1 year,great for the money, I have all the models,have the thinest green light.Great for rooms,not long distance.
At the beginning of today ,i wanted to buy simple laser level,now im pondering spending 200$ CAD on it 😅😅
I got one from Amazon,it last me 2 days in the job site then it broke.
What happened?
@@AddictedtoTools I was plumbing walls with it,then it fell from like a 10 inches high,and the glass broke and the tip inside where it gives the level line around come off,i understand they have to be taken care off,but a little bump ruined after 2 days of use,thats brittleness,Junk.
@@joelethalcruz4417 did you have the same model with metal protectors or a plastic protector model?
So you dropped it and it broke? No shit lol
definitely not spraying my huepar... fake advertising... time for a lawsuit 😅
No Name companies from china make claims that are false? I am so shocked!
what's the point of this? where is the full comparison to the others?
What others? This is a video showing a product….
Hello,
Huepar S04CG has an IP54 protection level, the following is the explanation of the protection level,
IP is the international code used to identify the protection level. The IP level is composed of two numbers. The first number means dustproof; the second number means waterproof. The larger the number, the better the protection level.
Dust class:
5 Dust protection It is impossible to completely prevent the intrusion of dust, but the amount of intrusion dust will not affect the normal operation of the product.
waterproof level:
4 Prevent the intrusion of splashing water and prevent the intrusion of splashing water from all directions. (It's perfectly fine to use on rainy days)
The water spraying with the hose in your test video belongs to waterproof level 6, which is beyond the IP54 range. Thank you very much for testing this, we will keep improving our products according to this problem until it becomes better.
Where I live, a rainy day is a helluva lot more intense than his little hose shower demonstration.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH I think the point they are making is that it is as advertised and not a case of false advertising.
Don't lie that wasn't a direct strong jet which is what IP 6 is. IP 5 is a weak jet. Also not what was shown in the video. He had the hose on low power mist or shower and was angling up mimicking rain.
I was thinking of buying this laser but this reply by your company has changed my mind. Looks better to own up rather than make excuses.
Maybe you are doing your IP testing incorrectly because you don't seem to have a clear understanding of it.
@@Geo-vw9oz IP 6 is an intense direct jet of water from all directions. No where close to what was done in the video. Lookup videos of actual IP water testing. A real IP 4 test is more intense than he did in this video. If that wasn't just a faulty laser then their products are really IP 3
Probably just bad luck, but my came with a faulty battery, tech support can't send it, they say I have to buy it locally and then pay for it (but you can't get it locally either). Moreover, the visibility of the green laser of this model is very poor. Indoor, on the wall it is almost invisible 5 meters away and outdoor is invisible 2 meters away. Probably faulty piece, waiting for reply from their technicians Right now, I am not very happy with this one. But so far all the way to tech support, which is trying to sort it out.
I bought Huepar S04CG and just today tried to use it for the first time on a job. Using brand new Duracell AA batteries, the unit shut down after less than 30 minutes run time. (It dhad done the same when I first tried it with the OEM supplied off-brand AA's, which is why I went to the Duracells.) Do these symptoms sound familiar, and do you have any idea why this would happen? I am currently charging the provided Li-ion battery, giving it the initial 24 hour charging the manual recommends. Hopefully, it will run much longer. But if it will not run as long as promised on AA's, this will be an ongoing problem when I might need to count on AA's to get through the work day. Thanks.
ACCURACY?? It kind of matters!! Well, unless you use the same laser on a whole house, then maybe balls will roll on their own across the floors but at least the doors should close!
Oh, and WEAR THE PROTECTIVE GLASSES - this is a Class 2 laser, not eye-safe!!
I agree it matters….
I'm surprised you didn't immediately put it in a bag of rice overnight to absorb the water.
Don't believe everything you see on the internet. The bag of rice trick, is just a myth! When it says it's waterproof in the instructions, it should at least have survived the test in the video.
I hear you have to rub peanut butter on it, then hit it with a hammer.
Such funny and ignorant remark at the same time. You made laugh out loud. Thank you for that. The bag of rice hack is actually a good one and actually works. Try it next time you drop your phone in the toilet. @@MAGAMAN
@@MAGAMAN Yes, must be 100% peanut butter though, others don't work
Drop it and you lose all 😅
So don’t spray your laser with a water hose and you’ll be fine. Got it.
What? This is a review
Treat it like a camera. Wait. He sprayed his camera on purpose???
I’ve never sprayed any of my Nikons with a hose. 😢😢
He's testing for our benefit. It has a moisture rating.
If a little moisture hurts it, we'll simply know not to use it outdoors if it starts raining.
Knowing a drip or drizzle won't harm it is a plus.
Who does that anyway.
If I was building a high school or a hospital, I'd be spending many thousands on a waterproof, fireproof, earthquake proof Lazer.
I bet a bag of rice fixes it.
Looks more as if if the battery died, nothing to do with moisture.
I just bought the 3 plane 603 cg by
I've only had mine a few days and I'm liking it. The battery life and the ability to plug it in if the battery dies sold me.
Checking out my old mobile home at night showed me an easy 130 feet of readable distance, confirmed by my Leica laser measuring tool....
...which will see no more rain than my Canon F1 😁
Construction still happens in the rain. They claim it's IP 4 so it should be able to handle this fine. And yes pro level cameras are weather sealed and would most likely hold up to rain like this some photographers also use their cameras in the rain.
I review and test tools. It says it could handle this water so I tested it. Hueper even did their own video where they did they same thing recently which I laughed at.
@@AddictedtoTools I don't know why people question you doing this. If it did happen to be set up outside and started to drizzle or mist... The information you provided would give a little comfort.
You're absolutely right doing this test.
Buy cheap, buy twice. I don't learn, SMH.
Those laser are crap a little bump and they done
Cheap junk is all these are.
Thats doom thinking man😁
11:07 - Just use igelit (hdpe or ldpe) bag to make it waterproof.
