Hilda levels are for the budget segment. The American manufacturer tried to make the maximum functionality for the minimum cost. Therefore, most often, you will find a device in a case made of cheap materials. And inside there will be an ordinary Chinese laser, and not Japanese or German, since they cost even more than the Hilda level itself.
Ray. Of course, budget devices are suitable for construction and household needs no worse than more expensive counterparts. But it is impossible not to notice the difference in the brightness and thickness of the laser beam. In addition, very often buyers complain about the unevenness of the vertical line. Although this can be adjusted with an adjusting screw.
Lids on lasers are equipped with thick bridges.This is very disturbing during operation, since the partitions leave large gaps on the laser beam.
Battery. Hilda levels can be purchased cheaply on Aliexpress. These are one of the most common models. Just be careful: the declared battery capacity does not always correspond to reality. The Chinese like to overestimate such figures, about twice.
Dust and drop protection. As for the protection of the device from dust, despite the declared IP56, there are simply no rubber gaskets on the covers. It is clear that dust will still get inside. And this is catastrophic for the bearing, the balls of which are not protected at all. Usually, under construction conditions, this level works up to 1.5 years.
Due to the heavy pendulum, if dropped, the device can be severely damaged. Then you have to adjust the downed pendulum. This is easy to do, but you will need a few special tools. Therefore, most likely, you will have to take the device to the service. Since the device does not have a bottom, you will have to find a stand to adjust.
All the simplicity of the Hilda design makes it compact and light, which cannot be said about more expensive massive counterparts, such as Bosch. Yes, and setting up the Chinese level is much easier than the German one.

The level is easy to understand. Here the covers are removed to gain access to the adjusting bolts and the battery is disassembled. To do this, you will have to unscrew only one or two bolts.
- Average cost: 3500 rubles.
- Power: 5000 mAh battery
- Self leveling: 4 degrees
- Bottom horizon: 1.6 cm
- Top horizon: 11.3 cm
- Accuracy: 2mm/10m
- Lines: 12
- Temperature: -10 to 40℃
- Protection: IP56
- Range: 30 m
Outwardly not very attractive, but the protection class is already IP56. This is despite the battery simply snapping into a slot rather than a sealed battery compartment. As for the beam, as in all other Hilda models, here it is bright and thin. And if you buy a more expensive package, you will get an additional level mount to the wall with all the required regulators. Any beginner can handle the device. Everything is simple here. The only thing is that the toggle switch is too loose.
- budget cost
- Autonomy up to 9 hours
- High protection class
- Charging while working
- Cheap plastic and rubber
- "Clumsy" assembly

This is a budget option for builders. The level is equipped with sound and light alarms. They can be controlled from a remote control. The device responds to remote control signals at a distance of 15 meters, but if you go around the corner, it will no longer work. The beam remains as bright even at a distance of 18 m. Among its analogues, this is almost the only level whose line remains as clear at an angle. Although the beam is green, in sunlight, it still fades. Therefore, a receiver is required for outdoor operation.The model is equipped with adjustment bolts for beam alignment. To get to them, just remove the top cover. It is one-piece - all elements are planted on hot melt adhesive. That is why it is easy to take it off.
- Metal bottom
- Rubberized upper
- External interchangeable battery
- Pendulum lock function
- Gaps on beam
- No range of motion up and down

- Average cost: 4990 rubles.
- Power: 6000 mAh battery
- Self leveling: 4 degrees
- Lower horizon: 1 cm
- Top horizon: 11.5 cm

- Range: 25 m
Professional model with an adjustable number of lines. The level can only be used indoors. On the street, a thin beam fades. The bottom platform is made in a slightly rounded shape, so the device dangles on flat surfaces. Unfortunately, the device does not have an air bubble, so it must be used on a floor that is known to be level or on a suspended platform. The main thing is to ask the seller to fix the pendulum when buying. In this model, when transporting with an unlocked latch, the vertical is lost, after which adjustment is needed.
- Remote control
- Practicality
- Good value for money
- thin beam
- Problems with brightness control
- No good tripod included
Top 7. Hilda LD515

- Power: 6000 mAh battery
- Self leveling: 3 degrees
- Lower horizon: 1 cm

Budget level for 16 lines. Like most representatives of the brand, the device is made of cheap materials, so burrs and scratches can often be found on the case. However, this does not affect the functionality in any way. In the richest configuration, a tripod is attached to the level. Inside the case, in addition to inexpensive emitters, a magnetic compensator is installed with a total error of 4 degrees. The total weight of the device is 1.5 kg, but this does not interfere with the operation of the level on weight. Problems are caused only by the transport of the level. The pendulum is knocked down, and it is difficult to adjust it yourself. You have to contact the service.
- Ability to work from the network
- Long autonomy
- Touch buttons
- Pleasant green light
- Poor case quality
- Problem transporting the device
Top 6. Hilda LS-100

- Temperature: -20 to 40℃
Modern professional model for working with space at 360 degrees. Level control is carried out with a remote control or gestures. The level can be attached to metal structures with a magnet. Here it is quite powerful. 4 laser lines create a plumb point and a nadir point. The battery will last for several hours of operation. The device will please not only functionally, but also aesthetically. The cheapness of the case materials is only betrayed by the rough surface of Chinese plastic. The kit includes a rich set of accessories, which is made, surprisingly, with high quality. In addition, the level is transported safely as the pendulum is blocked here. And this is not in most cheap models.

A semi-professional model that can be used outdoors. Additional accessories included to make the job easier. For example, a magnetic platform is equipped with a rotation and angle control for the device. Level error is within reasonable limits. And the metal case is not afraid of mechanical influences.The main flaw of the model is a flimsy tripod. Many prefer to buy a good one separately. But a good surprise will be a remote control with rubberized buttons, which are not only well pressed, but also pleasant to the touch.

Semi-professional model with LCD display and remote control (buttons on the device itself are touch-sensitive). Users note the high accuracy of the device. True, the vertical requires periodic adjustment. Another disadvantage of the model is the rapidly discharging battery. But you can buy a spare. The wall mount is made of ordinary plastic and is equipped with an adjustment screw. The level itself looks decent, despite the cheap materials. The laser beam is clearly visible even in sunlight. The battery level is displayed as a percentage on the LCD.

Household level, working in a plane of 360 degrees. The model does not belong to the semi-professional, since the high accuracy of the device is possible only indoors. In addition, the range of the beam is not very large. Of course, the unit can be used with a receiver, but it is not provided in the kit. The powerful accumulator provides autonomy till 12 o'clock. The device can also work from the network. Comes with protective case and tripod. Touch buttons are responsible for control. Vertical and horizontal can be adjusted separately. The self-levelling function will help in case of uneven position of the level.

Another professional level with 8 vertical and 8 horizontal beams.The device can work up to 9 hours without interruption and without recharging. This is the cheapest 4D green beam laser level. To say that this is the best device for its price is to say nothing, because there are a lot of analogues of this model. And those that are of better quality are much more expensive. Hidden in the Hilda case is a cheap crystal emitter. The range of the beam is highly dependent on lighting, reaching from 12 to 25 meters. The kit comes with a lifting platform with a sliding elevator. The maximum platform height is 8.5 cm.
- Speed and accuracy
- Value for money
- bright beam
- Excellent outdoor visibility
- Cheap materials and emitter
- IP protection does not match the declared
