    HI miked! It had a little note on it what was wrong with it. I looked up what it was and it seems it needs another item on the other end to work? Anyways, I haven't taken it apart yet because I don't know if what was wrong with is is fixable.

    Hi, NA,

    Neat find!

    What did the note say about what was wrong with it?

    For those interested, it is part of a laser levelling device for construction sites....It doesn't seem to have the actual laser unit that would sit on a tripod and send out a rotating laser beam.

    Jon.

    The quick read I did on an ebay listing stated it was a laser receiver.

    I don't see any reason not to sell it as "Broken for parts or repair". This way you may get something out of it and you don't have to become a repairer of this devise.

    I would do a google search for the manual for this system and see if you can learn a bit more about it. 73 Mike
