The DW079LR is DEWALT's 20V MAX* red-beam rotary laser designed for demanding interior and exterior layout work. It delivers ±1/16-in. accuracy at 100 ft (±1.6 mm at 30.5 m) and a working range of up to 2,000 ft with the included detector. Guaranteed Tough construction withstands harsh jobsite conditions. Self-levels automatically within its compensator range. The 20V MAX* battery platform provides extended runtime and is compatible with DEWALT's entire 20V tool ecosystem. Includes detector, 5/8-in. tripod adapter, TSTAK storage case, battery, and charger. Backed by DEWALT's 3-year limited tool warranty.
What is the working range of the DW079LR?
The DW079LR reaches up to 2,000 ft when used with the included detector, making it well suited for large exterior layout, grading, and site preparation tasks.
How accurate is the DW079LR?
The DW079LR achieves ±1/16-in. accuracy at 100 ft (±1.6 mm at 30.5 m), which is high-precision performance suited for finish-grade layout and critical alignment tasks.
What battery does the DW079LR use?
The DW079LR uses a 20V MAX* battery (included). It is compatible with all DEWALT 20V MAX* batteries, giving extended runtime options with larger-capacity packs.
Does the DW079LR self-level?
Yes. The DW079LR features automatic self-leveling and indicates an out-of-level condition when placed beyond its compensator range.
What is included with the DW079LR?
The DW079LR kit includes the rotary laser, detector, 5/8-in. tripod adapter, TSTAK storage case, 20V MAX* battery, charger, target card, enhancement glasses, ceiling bracket, and detector bracket.
How does the DW079LR compare to the DW079LGK?
The DW079LR uses a red beam while the DW079LGK uses a green beam. Green is up to 4x more visible to the human eye, which helps in bright outdoor conditions. The DW079LGK also includes a tripod and comes as a more complete kit.
