Hello I am on a budget but I have caught the laser bug. I am looking for a USA based seller so I dont have to deal with the Customs taking it. If I can get a reasonable price then I will order Friday. Thanks in advance.

Hi welcome to the forum. Are you new to lasers or just to the forum? 2w is a lot of power for a new user, you have to make sure you learn how to use it safely and which laser glasses to get. Im guessing you want a 445nm (blue) right? Add some more info like what color and your price range.

I am not new to lasers, I have a green laser but I would be new to something in that power range. I have seen them advertised here for 100-200 and so i hoping to stay in that range if possible, glasses would be nice but at the least if the seller could point me in the right direction for those then that would be great. Also maybe some links on laser safety. :) Anyway let me know. The ones I saw may have been 1.2 or 1.3 or something if that's the case then that would be ok also I guess.

445nm are usually sold 1w-1.5w here. A 1.2-1.3w 445nm is usually $100-$200. This one is a little bit expensive but it comes with everything you need. Glasses,charger,battery, and the laser.It also comes with 2 chargers just in case. A 1.2w laser is plenty for burning and the beam will be very clear.

Considering what's in the package, it's a very good deal imo.

Then again, I am a tad biased since that laser spent a bit of time in my desk drawer:p
