Lasers

Having fun with my laser. A buddy shot it with his cell phone!

Most pointers are 5 milliwatts (mw). This one is 125mw. I can shine it on a building two miles away and the dot may as well be two feet away. VERY bright. Here is one on a building about a quarter mile away.




All from www.wickedlasers.com ! If you buy, tell them I sent you. :-)

Someone over here took one into a football game and pointed it at a player whilst in play, it was quite serious matter, the authorities didn't appreciate it. It is incumbent upon the user to act responsibly, never point at or towards the eyes.

Having said that one can have a lot of fun, their strength for such a low level of power is quite amazing.

Yes, folks wanted to see it and then point it at cars on the road, airplanes, etc. No way! That's jail right there. I actually make sure the laser has three points of contact before I turn it on so as to avoid a bump to make it go where I do not want it to go.

That said, I do carry it for personal defense. :>
