Is the Cigman CM-701 any good? - Wacky Wood Works

[@kiwigrunt330]

I purchased the CM701 some months ago and got a receiver/detector for it as well. I love it, especially for the price. It is within +/- 2mm at 25m. I now also have the CM701SE with receiver. The laser is identical except for some cosmetic differences. This one is a bit less accurate though, but still within the stated +/- 3mm at 10m. Interestingly, the laser beam is weaker is some directions than it is in others. Consequently, the receiver only works out to 20m to the left and right of the laser, from horizontal. From the front and rear windows, it easily works out to 50m. This applies to both lasers. It is disappointing, but I can work with it as long as I remember to orientate the laser in the direction that matters. This brightness variation seems to be unavoidable with all lasers with cone prisms.

Thanks... I was pleasantly surprised by it. Thanks for watching.

I am unsure if it is more disturbing if Alexa does that by default or if you programmed her to do react that way... 🤣🤣

lol... I guess one will never know... lol. She may be more involved in some of my next and up and coming video's just for a bit of fun. Thanks for watching.

Does it work well under sunlight?

Depends on the range you are expecting... ie; I would say at 30m you put in to pulse mode and need a receiver but I doubt you would see it visually. Thanks for watching.
