Viper Laser Throw Line

The Viper laser line throw line works well for my purposes. I'm casting the throw line onto carpet and it is very visible. Hardware is included to mount either to a cabinet or the wall. I felt the included cabinet mount screws were a bit short for the need and would have made it difficult to feel that it was secure. Wall mount includes 2 wall anchor mollies which in my experience with the design isn't the best. I used 2 of my own mollies and securely mounted this to my wall.

Pros:

Does what you need it to do.

Cons:

Adjusting the projector is a little tricky as once you think you have it; the torque of the lockdown screws will throw you off a bit (pun intended). Patience will get you there, just slowly work the lockdown screws rotating sides with gentle turns.

It was easy install and works perfect. We are very happy not to have chalk or tape stuck to the floor.

I bought this one for a friend because I really like mine. The batteries seem to last forever. It’s super easy to use and reliable. The only down side is the initial set up adjustment requires a bit of patience. The adjusting laser arm is about 3/4” long and you’re projecting a 9 foot beam, so it’s very sensitive. Once you get the line correct, you’re set for good; totally worth a few fussy minutes. I’ve never had to touch mine and it’s still spot on.

Why even bother with tape?!!! This is the best thing for a line ever. Bought a GLD backboard, and drilled this beauty on the bottom of the wood frame of it. Looks fantastic and the wife will never complain about her precious floor being ruined with ugly throw lines! Worth every penny. Just remember to spend about a good 10 minutes with patience. Because you have to screw the two side screws on each end of the laser to tighten it down and prevent it from moving which can be a bit of a pain as the line moves slightly! Other than that, 5 stars all the way
