I am looking for advice for optical lasers used in construction - the usual red and green types. I want to split the beam so that there are two beams at right angles to the original in a T fashion, so the original vertical beam is split into two horizontal beams.
Is there any such lens/cube out there that does this operation? The idea is to project a marking from a central point in both directions and thus identifying any deviation along that plane.
Also the question of red and green.
from what i can gather, the red laser is cheaper and uses less energy at the expense of range. (to the human eye)
Are there any other factors to consider when choosing an optical laser?
Thanks
