It’s $37 dollars……how much cheaper does it need to be?? From the picture the dots are bigger than the tip is. Not sure how that increases accuracy versus just bringing the tip down to the print.
I generally punch in hole center dimensions anyways.
I was thinking that its to low, or maybe a typo I like the concept
@Bob Lasers are notorious for not photographing well … the dot is about .8mm in diameter significantly smaller than the tip and it allows for no contact centering on stuff so trust me it’s handy.
The tip is now also alloy steel to improve longevity as well.

@Andrew Very good. Will have to give one a try. Does the laser turn on and off with the trace pushbutton or is there another switch? Laser powered by the Droid or batteries in the stylus?
Laser on full time when plugged in… powered by the ArcDroid
Just put my order in!
The price is cheap, its the shipping that is outrageous $249.00
Where you from Mars?
Hey @Billbeaty
Shipping for the Laser stylus should not have been anywhere near that.
However we were doing some updates to the site recently, maybe we got something wrong? Can you please reach out to CS and let us know exactly what happened and we’ll look into it.

I just did a false order to check it out and it worked
I just looked at the order page and this might be the confusion. It states shipping is capped at $249.00
Oh, forgot to mention I have the laser stylus, and I feel it is far more accurate than the original stylus that comes with the Arcdroid, especially when used with the foot pedal switch that I also have. It allows one to control the stylus with both hands and be very precise with locating the exact point one wishes to enter. The LED is very small when looking at it, and I can still see it in my very well lit shop. Well worth the price. ymmv
I really like the laser stylus. In lower light conditions I thought it was a bit brighter than I cared for. I never knew you could dim it down by turning down the screen brightness on the controller.
I realized this after going with the Plus controller. Because of power restrictions, screen brightness is limited to 50%. This makes the laser really dim but still useable. Now I wish it was a bit brighter…..
Thats the most you would pay per order I think order ten machines and only pay $250 shipping
an important point on the Lazer styles is that it has a metal tip verses a aluminon on the old one I ruined my first one on day one when it crashed while making traces when I first got it
