Notes

Recommended Applications
The Topcon RL-H4C is engineered for outdoor use on large sites.  It is ideal for grading, excavating, general construction, and commercial plumbing applications.  With a machine-mountable receiver, it is useful for large-scale excavation and grading, and the 600 rpm rotational speed guarantees an accurate reading at all times.  The RL-H4C can match a custom slope, but it does not calculate or display that slope, so you'll need to select a different tool for pipeline work or other projects that require a precise custom slope over long distances. 
There is no reason that the Topcon RL-H4C can't be used on smaller applications or even indoors.  You will be somewhat limited by the one horizontal line, but the superior line will easily cover any indoor contracting application.  Keep in mind that this is a class III laser, and all workers will need to be mindful to keep their eyes protected and diverted from the laser.

•	Exceptional range beyond 2,600 feet (diameter) with the included receiver
•	Rapid 600 rpm rotational speed enables use for mobile machine control applications
Cons
•	No degree of slope indication in manual slope-matching mode
•	Requires rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack in order to use standard AC power
Our Rating
The Topcon RL-H4C is a serious tool for serious contractors.  The investment might seem high if you're looking for a laser level for home use, and to be honest, this laser is probably overkill for most private homeowners.  The Topcon RL-H4C is engineered for outdoor use on construction sites and for municipal-scale applications.  If that's the type of work you do, this is the perfect tool for you.
The range, speed, and power of this laser are best-in-class, and Topcon backs their product up with a relatively strong 5-year limited warranty and access to the TotalCare website where you'll have access to online training, product documentation, and even live support from Topcon-trained representatives. 
The Topcon RL-H4C has the range and speed for machine-mounted control.  The interface is simple and intuitive.  And it has a good reputation for reliability and lifespan.
