I just purchased a heupar laser and loved it so much I purchased the receiver. But annoyingly the receiver doesn’t pick anything up. I ordered a replacement receiver but that’s the same. Other than pressing the pulse mode button is there anything else that I need to do so I can get it to work ?
Hello, same problem with me! How you use your receiver, outdoor or indoor. Indoor where there is no sun it works perfectly, when I go outside where the sun is shining It stops working instantly. I found that when sun hits the receiver it stop working instantly, when I make shade with my hand on to the lens it starts to work again but it is not possible to work outside it that way....
@@mo-ni mine doesn’t work regardless. Only tried it indoors and nothing. Now returning the laser in the hope that after trying 2 receivers that this solves the problem. . If not I’ll be sending it all back
Yes handy having a receiver paired with your laser level - I have a more basic older one with a single front indicator but it looks very similar. Last used mine for setting out the fall on my septic tank pipe run 😷
Ah yeah it would have been handy if I had it when I done my trenches, I just eye balled it though and hoped for the best 🤣 for the pipes themsleves you can't beat the spirit level trick with a block taped to one end though
I got the receiver a few weeks ago so stumbled across your video to research more into it. If it helps, mine is also missing the 2nd rubber pad so I guess thats normal ;)
Does the laser reciever work in bright sunlight. My huepar laser and reciever works fine indoors but go out into bright sunshine and the reciever becomes faulty. Rather sad
Hello! Are you use this receiver now or only you use it once? I have problems with my receiver and in outdoor, when the sun is shining my receiver is like blind and do not show nothing, if I go under some shade it instantly start to work again...
I'm not sure Pete. I think in general, if you stick to the same colour green or red then you might be ok. The detectors might detect a slightly different wavelength though so it might not work 🤷 I'd probably get one off Amazon and test it because if it doesn't work then it's quite simple to send it back
Hi mate, does the receiver fit into that hard case at all? I have the same receiver and I am looking between this laser and the GF360G. The fact it comes with the hard case and the micro adjusting clamp is swinging my choices a bit... If the receiver fits into the box with the laser then i'd probably go for it, but if not then I may have to find a case I can do my own cut outs in. If you can please let me know that would be ace! Cheers
Couldn't say for sure but it's my understanding if you stick with the same colour laser/receiver it should work. There may be a chance it won't though if they're designed to detect a certain pulse 🤷♂️
Hi aiden bit off topic from video but what mix did you use to achieve such a light mortar on your brickwork? Looking for similar to bring the colour of our bricks out abit more!
Hey, so it's a 5 to 1 mix. White soft sand and white cement. The colour of soft builders sand varies across the country, our standard stuff here is a darker or deeper yellow brown but the white sand is a light yellow. You can also get silver soft sand which would give you a light colour. It's best to ring your local aggregate supplier and ask them if they can get soft white sand or something similar
Cheers dude 👍 yeah scalping are the same but not the same 😆 if it's scalping then it's unclassified, so it may not have the same load bearing qualities because it may be too heavy on fines etc
@@THE-AIDEN-PROJECT Life is complicated sometimes....most of the time imo. I expect for pathways & light use unclassified scalpings would be acceptable. For areas of high & heavy traffic the regulated MOT (ministry of transport?!) stuff would be better. I expect most builders would use it and treat scalpings the same as MOT I love the stuff. Creates a really solid foundation when it gets moisture in it....bloody hard to dig up when it gets wet. I have even used it for concrete (add a bit of sand & cement) for fence posts & the like. Have a good weekend ☔👍

@@MarcJWebbMusic may be your laser can not work with receiver? Not all line lasers can operate with receivers.
I did check before buying and is one of the names models to work in the instruction manual and on their website
@@mo-ni it’s the one the manual and the website say is compatible
@1:03: for detecting a vertical laser (plumb); turn it sideways
Thank you very much for your understanding and support! This video is really great!
Do you have a uk support team by phone I have new equipment that is just not working
Thanks for the insight - I need 35m for french drains

Unfortunately it doesn't work in bright sunlight, I've just checked it. I suppose for the price there will be some limitations

Hey, yeah I've just checked and confirmed it doesn't work in direct sunlight once you're over a meter or so away, if a cloud covers the sun it's fine
You’re a star Aiden! Love your channel mate.
Thanks dude 👍
Is the huepar receiver compatible with other makes of lasers?

@@THE-AIDEN-PROJECTawesome thanks so much 😊👍🏻
Can you use it on pulse mode for the vertical lines? To set vertical lines? (Rotate the receiver horizontally?)
Yep
Does the receiver have to be used with that laser, or will it work with any green laser ?
Couldn't say for sure but it's my understanding if you stick with the same colour laser/receiver it should work. There may be a chance it won't though if they're designed to detect a certain pulse 🤷♂️
If you do the levelling during twilight you would be able to see the laser line.
Good idea 👍 although I was on a time limit with the digger hire so getting the receiver worked out a treat 😁
