In this video I demonstrate
In this video I demonstrate another laser alignment system to help you with your heat press productivity needs. In a previous video (like below) I demonstrated a cost-effective system based on the popular Harbor Freight laser guide. In version 2.0, I show you a more secure and refined setup that costs just $26 more than the previous version, assuming you already have a USB power bank and a few USB cables.
Note, you can OBVIOUSLY use a USB power block or extension cord with USB inputs to continuously power the lasers. My previous video used battery-powered lasers and this was a modification of that. In my setup, I only have one outlet close to my press area. Hotronix recommends a dedicated outlet for the press, so I used the battery to run my beams instead of getting a really long extension cord.

GEAR USED (Note: Affiliate links may be used for Amazon items. As of this posting, any links to other sites are not affiliate link) :
Lasers [horizontal recommended] shown in video: amzn.to/3wwgqo3
Lasers [2 pack, alt link since the ones above have been out of stock]: amzn.to/3lzswZl
*MANY lasers are now out of stock for some reason. Here's another that I found that's very similar, but I have NOT tried this one personally: amzn.to/3rWnSZz
Mounting Rings: amzn.to/2Ufz5pX (These have been in short supply too since posting this video. I've not yet found a suitable alternative, unfortunately)
*The above-linked rings might be out of stock. If so, these are listed with the same specs in the 1/2 size and SHOULD work. I've not tried them myself, I'm simply linking them as a possible alternative because I've been getting a lot of messages about alternatives: amzn.to/3BuCNNT
Mounting Arms: amzn.to/3pYaqBQ
(Recently switched to this one) Solo Monitor Stand: amzn.to/3gkmqdi
Dual Monitor Stand (shown) - www.walmart.com/ip/onn-Full-Motion-Dual-Monitor-De…
Power Bank: amzn.to/2S5nk4C (closest to what I'm using)
If you have easy access to a wall outlet that isn't shared with your press, I'd recommend bypassing the battery bank and simply use a wall plug (with extension cord if needed) as it will provide constant power and won't need charging. I use this one when I don't need battery: amzn.to/3IcP4cg
