I posted it in another thread but thought posting a new thread would be a benefit for other members doing slope work. I couldn't find a slope meter bubble level locally(or in Canada) that showed grade in percent and shipping and duty is ridiculous coming out of the US. I thought a digital level might work but all the ones I previously found were $200 and up to over $400. Then I stumbled across this 9" digital magnetic torpedo level. It has 6 modes including percent of grade, has a blue light if it's too hard see and can be set to beep when close to preset level and steady beep when at level. Not too loud but a nice feature. Good size display and works right side up or upside down with up to 60 hours battery life. It has strong magnets so I think I can mount it from the roof my tractor. If not I'll make a simple bolt on angle iron mount to stick it too. It should also work on the box blade and skid steer. You could also use it for fore and aft angle in a machine. It's actually made by Milwaukee and another great feature is it's auto calibrated. Can't wait to try it out.
