Frequently Asked Questions — Spectra Precision LL300N
What is the Spectra Precision LL300N accuracy?
The LL300N is accurate to ±10 arc seconds, equal to ±1/16 inch per 100 feet or ±5mm per 100 meters. This accuracy rating meets the requirements of most construction and grading applications.
How long does the LL300N battery last?
Using 4x AA alkaline batteries, the LL300N delivers approximately 100 hours of runtime at 20°C. An optional rechargeable battery pack is available with similar runtime. AA batteries perform better in cold weather than rechargeable packs.
What receiver works with the Spectra Precision LL300N?
The factory-matched receivers are the Spectra HR320 and HR550. Any 635nm red laser receiver from Topcon (LS-80A, LS-80L) or Leica (Rod Eye 160) is also compatible.
What is the difference between the LL300N and LL500?
The LL500 adds dual-grade capability (X and Y grade simultaneously), a larger working range of 800m, and higher accuracy at ±7 arc seconds. The LL300N is a horizontal-only single-grade laser better suited for basic leveling and layout.
Can the LL300N be used outdoors in rain?
Yes — the LL300N is rated IP66, meaning it is protected against powerful water jets from any direction. It can operate in rain without damage to the instrument.
