ELECVELNO Laser tripod, 17–53 in, 1/4-20 thread
The only tripod here that says how low it goes and how much it will carry — seventeen inches and six and a half pounds.
- Stated dimension or range
- 17 in to 53 in over four different reach lengths, stated. Seventeen inches is the only MINIMUM WORKING HEIGHT published on this shelf — this shelf's buying tip says most laser work happens between 60 cm (23.6 in) and 150 cm (59.1 in), about 23.6 to 59 inches, and this shelf's introduction says the minimum matters as much as the maximum because a tripod that will not go low enough is useless for floor work. This covers the whole band and goes below it
- Reference and mounting
- A universal 1/4"-20 threaded screw, stated compatible with self-leveling laser levels, cross-line lasers, rangefinders, cameras and projectors. This shelf's introduction says the thread decides compatibility: 1/4 inch suits compact line lasers and camera heads, and 5/8 inch is the construction standard this tripod is not
- Body and fittings
- A 3-way pan head giving 360° horizontal rotation and vertical movement, with an adjustable 90° sideways tilt — stated. Four discrete extension lengths rather than a continuous column: this shelf's introduction asks whether an elevating column allows fine adjustment without resetting the legs, and four fixed steps is not that
- Also stated
- A load capacity of 6.6 pounds. It is the ONLY load figure on this shelf, and on a tripod whose entire job is to hold an instrument still it is the figure that says which instruments it holds — a compact cross-line laser is well under a pound, a rotary laser can be four
- Measuring mode
- A built-in bubble level, stated to let the tripod itself be checked and adjusted. On a self-leveling laser the tripod need only be within the pendulum range; on a manual laser the tripod's own level is the whole reference
- Material
- Aluminum alloy and PP, stated, with a triangular design stated to reduce vibration, and non-skid feet
- Supplied
- A carrying pouch, stated, with a minimum length of 17 inches folded — so the folded length and the minimum working height are the same figure, which is what four telescoping sections on a short tripod gives you
