The pole?

I actually don't know, but from my experience with Stanley, I would say the difference is this:

The Stanley Fatmax is more expensive because it says "Fatmax" in the name, and is either bulkier or has some shiny metal parts here and there (or both).

About 3/32 in 30' & a pole

I looked up the stanley site & the only difference I found was the CLL came with a pole where the CL2 has a separate attachment that has a magnetic hold, a screw hold & a tripod attachment.

I have the CL2 ...Love it.

It attaches to my builders tripod with the 5/8" nut as well as the 1/4" nut that is on most camera tripods.

Quick, easy, accurate & affordable.
