My indoor laser level works well if you wait until after dark but during the day it's colored glasses and white paper at 10-15 feet max - still it's better than my four foot level.
Larry, I have one of those lasers- tough to read for sure. May I recommend using a length of white pvc, marked in 1" increments above and below level. It is much easier to work with than level and paper. Still hard to read over 15' but easier to handle
