  • My first level as an apprentice, still using it as a journeyman.
Size: 6" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
When I joined the trade in Texas (mostly non-union) the hefty fee of the large amount of general tools an electrician needs was daunting so I cut corners where I could. A magnetic level was one of those items I couldn't justify the 30 to 40 dollar price for. After all, that's how much my Kleins were. This proved to be a solid investment. As a professional there aren't many avenues where you can cut corners when it comes to tools but this may be one of them. The magnets are strong and have not fallen out, the vials are highly visible even in low light situations and very accurate, and the unit is very durable. During my first 2 (mayyyybe 3)years as an apprentice I dropped things often, particularly from lifts and ladders. The Swanson level was unphased every time. Highly recommended for people new to the trade. ... show more

  • Good torpedo level for tradesman, could be better if one issue was fixed
Size: 9" (inches) Digital Style: Savage Digital Torpedo
So, this level is pretty good quality and definitely helps in a lot of situations, especially bending conduit. 3 stars for a few reasons- 1- I had to Dremel the on/off button to sit below flush because the thing turns itself on ALL THE TIME. In my bag, in my pocket, etc. Inevitably it kills the battery sooner and the fact the designers didn't think about this probably knowing this level would really be used by tradesman in a cramped toolbox/bag kind of makes me wonder what they were thinking. 2- I returned one because the bubble would be in different positions depending on it's orientation, not exactly great for accuracy. The 2nd one I got was better in this regard. Overall the digital aspect of it works pretty good and is accurate with the bubble when calibrated correctly. The problem on the first one I had was calibrating it then have it off when the level was flipped over due to the machining error. If the button was fixed and assuming the first 'off' 1 I received was just a fluke, this would be a 5 star product -IBEW electrician ... show more

  • Very satisfied.
Size: 6" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
*Update* I have had this level for over a year now and still no issues. It remains accurate and in good condition, regardless of many drops. I have owned this level for over 5 months. As an electrician, I use it very frequently. It is as good as a $35 Klein which is made in identical shape, size, and material. Its been droped many times from 6+ feet and never broekn. I love the earth magnets which give you a very strong hold. Couldn't be happier especially for the price. ... show more

  • Ditch the plastic levels - This is the real deal!
Size: 6" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
Why buy multiple flimsy plastic levels when this bad boy will last a lifetime? Seriously solid construction on this level, I wouldn't have a single reservation bringing it on any job site (other than it being stolen because of how nice it is). Looks like machined aluminium faces with an epoxy glue holding the glass gauges in. Magnet is adequately strong for the purpose, won't fall off the work but you won't have to fight it to get it off either. Electricians may find it more useful than others with the built-in conduit angle levels. I don't bend conduit much but this thing is just as good for general purpose leveling as it is for specialty conduit bends. 5/5 would buy again for myself or as a gift to others. ... show more

  • Remedy?
Size: 6" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
The level doesn't level and I'm fairly confident my bubble has been getting bigger and bigger. Nearly leaked a 1/4 of the fluid that was in it and originally I purchased this item 6 months ago.... after 18 years as a tradesman this is the first time I've been dissatisfied with any Swanson product

  • Sturdy little level with strong magnets
Size: 9" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
I really like this level. It is thick metal so I'm not worried that a accidental drop is going to knock it out of square. The vials are easy to read and I like the variety of positions. The rules is also useful, but doesn't go all the way to the end of the level which I would have preferred. The magnets on this are very strong. The level will "snap" onto a metal surface with authority and pulling the level off requires some effort. Be careful if you are holding this up to delicate metal object (or turn it over so the magnets are away from the object). Overall, a perfect tool bag level for me. ... show more

  • Really well made level
Size: 9" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
I purchased the 9" non-lighted version and not only is it functional but the design makes you proud to own and use it. My tool purchases have changed over the years from straight value/the cheapest functional tool I can get, to now spending a little more to get something which displays more craftsmanship and is something I could hand down to my sons. The magnets are strong and the vials are easy to read. I did not perform an accuracy test (yet) but it certainly seems dead-on. It's not the lightest torpedo level but I'd gladly trade a little weight for a sense of quality. I've got plastic versions from different brands and they all work fine and they all seem cheap. I'm glad for this upgrade. ... show more

  • sturdy accurate level with pretty strong magnets
Size: 9" (inches) Style: Heavy Duty Torpedo
I work in commercial HVAC and use a my torpedo quite often. For what I do, I need strong magnets and a level that can handle falls onto the hard concrete from sometimes over 15' up. The savage does the job well. Its made well and doesn't dent up too bad when it does fall onto the concrete, thus throwing off the accuracy. I will continue to buy this level until I find a better one. This one does NOT come with the lights, so if you're looking for the lighted version, this is not it. ... show more
