What is the height to the line if the laser is setting on the ground. I'm looking for a laser that could get as low as 5" off the floor.

4.5" if it sat flat on the ground to the line of the laser... BEST friggin' laser EVER!!!

Use the Allen keys that come with it and a bench rest. Make your adjustments at 30 FT or the distance they give you on a range. Checking your zero on the targets with live rounds. If you eyeball it at a shorter distance on a wall or whatever you be able to acquire the target mass faster but your going to need to fire the gun and move the laser as you go it's not hard. Most ranges have a wood block rest. Once you zero it in it's set check it from time to time make sure it's tight not over tight. Ok

There is a tiny rubber button on the left side of the laser near the front...difficult IMO to manipulate in a extreme situation...but I get tons more battery life just leaving mine turned off as I do a lot of practice with the built in sites. But push it once and the laser pulses, push button again and it's on constant. Push button a third time and it shuts back off.

Look on the side of the laser. There is a small vertical handle with lines on it. Push it in slightly and turn it counter-clockwise. Needle nose pliers helps.

At night, I have played with the laser up to a mile away, but, in the daylight it is extremely weak, 20' max. If I were going to buy one now I would get the green laser.

I would suspect if your crimson laser is dead on, you won't see the flash of the laserlyte. But that in itself would be a very interesting exercise if it were me. I think the best thing it will do for you is help you pin-point the distances at which point your crimson laser becomes inaccurate. A mounted laser intersects the barrel at very specific distances. So if yours is dead on at say 20 feet, then the laserlyte trainer will show you how far off (if any) it is a 40 feet. It will definitely be off at some point. But at what distance and by how much. Be good info to know, and the laserlyte will provide you that feedback very quickly probably without even having to leave the house!

This laser is made especially for tile floor layout. It is great because it has a square and 45 degree line. If you use it on a wall you will need to use level on the wall. I use a different self leveling laser for vertical and horizontal level lines.

The laser can be zeroed to the sights but you need to pick a specific distance to set zero. Remember the laser is an inch or so below the barrel so it has to rise to meet the bullet line of fire. Any shot that is less than the zero distance will be high- any shot further than the zero distance will be low- to varying degrees depending on the distances. If you zero at 7 yards you should be inside a six inch circle at 3 to 10 yards - good enough for self defense inside a home. In my humble opinion.

fits on a standard rail...but, I would spend a little more and get a higher quality laser. Check the reviews, a very real concern is the low quality and inability to zero the laser - mine is now a cat toy and I would not buy one of these again for any reason. I attempted to zero this laser at 15' and 25' and cannot get even close or usable. Even at those short distances, it was off by a foot or more!

Long, just as any laser. However this does not work via trigger pull. It is constant on when activated. Might not be the solution you are looking for.

No but you can put it on a stool , a table or anything that you can get the 3 legs to sit on , I have used upside down 5 gal buckets and many other things to get it to the height needed. Tilting it back will just pin the laser it will not be able to self level , defeating the purpose.

I have the low profile and it is just a few inches off the ground. I'm not sure about the height of the 'new 8ft suede purple beam.'

Projection range of the laser beam is 5 m (up to 16 ft);Range projection laser point: 20 m (up to 60 ft);Accuracy: ± 0,5 mm / m (Up to ±3/16" @ 33-ft);

about 2' off the ground is the minimum height of the tripod that the laser sits on

Laser is attached to gun's lower frame's rail and it fits flush with the front of the frame and the slide. I think, It should not interfere with the barrel and slide compensator.

The one I bought is useless out doors, I can only see the Green laser spot at about 15ft in bright light. The only thing its good for is playing with my cat.

There is no true lock function despite what the instructions say. I confirmed this with SKIL customer service some time back I think. But what you can do is place the level in manual mode and use it to project non-level lines, i.e. tilting it beyond the self-level range of 4 degrees. The laser simply is against its internal movement stops in that case. In manual mode, the flashing beam warning for out-of-range is disabled plus the green/red light on top stays red. A bit more handling care might be warranted in this case since the laser is not truly locked
