Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Review – Design and Functionality
Our Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Review will focus on product design and functions.
Its enclosure uses top-tier composite plastic, enveloped in a layer of rubber 2mm thick, ensuring a near-complete coverage. The rubber layer boasts remarkable density, creating an appearance akin to soft-touch plastic.
The housing design prioritises ergonomic elements, resulting in a comfortable fit and grip. Despite the intricate contours of the enclosure, the manufacturing quality remains exceptionally high. The integration between the two primary segments is precise, rendering the seam nearly perfect.
Hidden beneath the rubber casing is one side that houses a USB Type-C connector. This interface serves a dual purpose: it works by recharging the internal battery. Even without the latter, it also enables direct operation through mains power.
This design configuration establishes notable versatility concerning power sources within the S04CG. It accommodates power supply from a lithium-ion battery, standard AA batteries, or direct mains connection. The provision to integrate a power bank further enhances the array of available options.
Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Laser Modules
We should also note in this Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Review that the company uses high-quality laser modules. The integration of these is a big plus since they project thin and bright lines perfect for various activities.
This feature is the most crucial difference between the S04CG/CR and similar products. Generally, these laser levels with screens exist; however, these only display the remaining charge and details about the enabled mode.
For this product, you can see the housing inclination angle along the X and Y axis.
Compensator
The product sports a traditional tilt compensation mechanism, allowing adjustments within a 3.5° range. Its setup allows the calibration of its pendulum to remain perfectly vertical.
An automatic visual and auditory alarm will activate if the angle surpasses the threshold. In simpler terms, the laser lines will emit brief flashes every half second, accompanied by an audible warning. This feature alerts you of any incorrect alignment during the marking process.
Sometimes, the operation is in a mode where the compensator is locked to accommodate markings at arbitrary angles. In these cases, the laser lines similarly exhibit intermittent flashing. However, these occur at five-second intervals without any auditory cues.
This type of signalling indicates the engagement of a specialised mode. Upon activation/activation of its switch, the compensator aligns itself within five seconds. This duration slightly exceeds the initially stated timeframe.
Laser Level Control Methods
The product has three control options, which we will discuss in our Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Review.
Toggle Switch and Control Panel on the S04CG/CR
On the side of the S04CG/CR, you will find a two-position toggle switch resembling the compensator. It lets you switch the planes and the laser level on or off. Activating it lights up all four planes, and then you can control it with the buttons on top.
The H button is for switching horizontal planes separately, while the V button is for verticals. These are convenient features since they allow you to select any combination of planes.
The button in the middle switches the receiver mode and activates the TILT function.
Bluetooth Remote Control
Huepar packs each S04CG/CR with a Bluetooth remote control you can use to control the laser level.
Before using the Bluetooth remote control, switch the S04CG/CR on. Next, hold the white power button on the remote control for five seconds. The white colour should shift to green, but if it turns red, it requires charging.f
According to the manufacturer, F1 and F2 buttons are inactive since these are for newer models. The H and V buttons work like those with the same labels on the S04CG/CR.
The remote control also has an upper button for adjusting the brightness of the laser. It works like the lower button that works for the receiver. Both switch the S04CG/CR to a pulsing mode to work with the receiver.
Controlling via Mobile App
Finally, the last control method for the S04CG/CR via the Huepar mobile app. It is downloadable from Google Play Store for Android devices and the App Store for iOS.
After downloading the app, launch it and switch the device on. If things go smoothly, the app will lead you to the first screen, and you must click the S-serials. After this, the application menu will show information and new products.
In the Settings menu, you can change the language used in the app.
The main control panel of the Huepar app is where you can see the activated planes. Plus, you can select the necessary planes for your project and adjust the angles of these.
Key Features of the Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level
Four 360° Planes with Top and Floor Line Laser
The S04CG/CR has four 360° planes of laser light. The top horizontal line is handy for ceiling installation, while the horizontal line is for tiling. Two vertical lines crossing at 90° angles allow quick visualisation and finishing a square layout.
Its lifting base allows raising the 360° floor laser from the surface to go over obstructions and uneven surfaces.
LCD Screen and Bluetooth Technology
We used the laser level for this Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level Review to discuss our user experience. One of the things that made the laser level user-friendly was its LCD screen. It displayed the battery level, pendulum and pulse mode, and angle.
The product also uses Bluetooth to allow managing the setup from a distance. Aside from that, you can pair two devices simultaneously.
Triple Power Methods + USB-C Charging Port
The S04CG/CR is an excellent laser tool powered by a 7.4V 2600mAh Li-ion or AA alkaline battery. You can also remove its battery and use it while plugged into a wall socket. Its USB-C charging port allows charging by power bank, car charger, or laptop.
Multifunctional Laser Tool
You can select the four 360° laser planes of the S04CG/CR with the separate H and V keypad buttons. It has an intelligent pendulum that works for self-levelling and indicating out-of-level conditions when unlocked. Once locked, the laser level switches to manual mode to lock lines at different angles.
The S04CG/CR has a Pulse mode for extending the laser range to 61m. It also uses the green laser unit of Osram to provide adequate brightness.
Durable Design with Magnetic Brackets
The sturdy magnetic brackets of the S04CG/CR enable quick positioning on metal surfaces. As a result, you can hang the laser level for wall applications. It also has a mount thread for a standard pole mount or tripod.
The over-moulded laser metal bracket has an IP54 water and dust resistance rating. It can withstand harsh conditions on job sites. Plus, you can remove and replace it with a screwdriver.

Hands-on with the Huepar S04CG/CR 4D Laser Level
For starters, it is easy to use, and the included accessories help make everything more convenient. If you need to check the alignments of things you hang, like frames, curtain rods, etc, this laser is best.
The laser allows you to work comfortably and efficiently, thanks to the two 360° horizontal planes. Also, the S04CG/CR lets you project verticals closest to your walls.
The advantage of this laser is that you do not need to remove its bubble level. Once you set up the product, it will stay in that position. You only need to place it on the ground so its green lasers will project line rays to help you.
If you use a laser that projects directly to the ground, it can help lay out tiles. How? Its vertical lasers can work for paint jobs. It can also ensure the straight positioning of anything you plan to mount on walls.
