Hello everyone, I just joined and wanted to introduce myself. I joined LaserPointerForums because I believe I want to get into lasers or even just try it out. I look forward to talking with many of you!

Thank you! I think I want my first laser to be a pre-built. To start off anyway haha. I visited a few different companie's sites. Laserglow, Wicked Lasers (I read on here that they're questionable), DragonLasers (I read a lot are overspec), and a few more.

Welcome and enjoy.
I see you're from Louisiana, are you anywhere near Canal Street or that Harrah's casino there? If you are I'm sure you know to stay away LOL
It's been a while since I have been to Mardi Gras but I always enjoyed it, I used to combine Bourbon street with my Biloxi trips, it's just another 80 miles or so and my wife loved it there.
I still look at the web cam sometimes just to remember, but you may not live near there and if you do it's no probably no big deal to you I bet. I was there after Katrina, wow that was something, like Armageddon with all those dark houses and cars pushed up underneath the overhead roadways.

Shipping will be an issue for some of the ones you listed.
Sanwu.org is an excellent option. Very high quality. Size and power output choices too. They have a presence on the forum as well.
If cheapies are what your after then your really just gambling. It may work for a long time or a few hours. I suggest a $50 cap on gambling with cheapies.

Good call, Sanwu was my first pre-built laser and aside from an issue I had the company is great. You may find that as you buy from quality companies that cheapies will disappoint you.

Thank you! Oh no, I live near Bossier city. I've visited New Orleans but it worried me a bit haha. Oh yes, Katrina was terrible. This last flood they had was bad too, over in Denim Springs.

Oh ok, I appreciate it! I wasn't looking to spend a whole lot of money, but wanted something that was decent in quality and would last a good amount of time. I'll definitely visit that site, thats one I haven't visited yet.
