I have read at dx that the normal pen style GREEN lasers does not always have the right output but what about the flashlight style laser:[dealextrame's site]com/details.dx/sku.12341
There isn't written that it does not have the right output. And it is much cheaper that even a X125.

P.S: if you think this laser is not good, what do you recommend for me for max 300$

Thanks for your fast answer!

First i prefer Nova to dragonlasers...
Second, I can buy a red and a green laser(mW) which are both more powerfull than dragon for even cheaper than Viper 125 mW.
If i mind that i'll have to buy two glasses the price will be almost the same
So what do yo think, what worths more:
DX 200mW green laser, 200mW red laser, glass protects aganist red laser, glass protects aganist green laser
Dragon or Nova Viper 125 mW or X125 with glass protects aganist green laser?

the high powered DX greens are known for not being very reliable and emit IR, but can still be decent for the price, the dx 200mw red however is an amazing deal you will not be disappointed with.

Are you referring to the DX lasers?

LOL

I laugh at you sir!

I doubt the greenie from DX is more powerful than the Viper (maybe for a bit, depends if it has an IR filter or not) and it is nowhere NEAR as reliable as a laser from the proper laser companies ;) I wouldn't trust a high powered green from DX, IR is dangerous, and the complexity of the laser means it might break on you. Always go from the proper laser companies for high powered greens (though lasers under or around 50mW are okay from DX).

But the dilda laser (red DX200) is a different kettle of fish! I have one, I love it. I think EVERY laser enthusiast should have one, just because it is so good for what you get for that price!

Thanks for the info!

So i now have to choose between NOVA and Drgaonlasers
I used to prefer Nova but i really don't know which is the better right now...
i don't know what is the differance between x125 and Viper 125
Nova has got nice accesorie but they are expensive, Dragon don't have much, but they are cheaper.
Which do you recommend?

Personally, I would go Dragon because they are a reliable company and the laser is much cheaper. They used to be much more expensive, but the price dropped.

NOVA is probably a better company, but Dragon is still very good and the Viper 125 is much cheaper.

Though, don't just take my opinion on it because I'm not totally sure. Wait for some more people to post and give their thoughts, people who actually have one of those two lasers :)

actually x125 is cheaper(280$) than viper 125(300$) so i don't think so that is a good reason XD

go with nova, the x125 is cheaper and you will most likely get an output ~ 140mw

Oh that's right. NOVA have a sale on those lasers at the moment...  :-X

$50 off! So I'd go with NOVA then, you'd get a pretty damn awesome laser ;)

What do you think which is the better:
Optotronics PLL 125 with basic optics kit or
Optotronics RPL 165?

First off I think you mean PPL and not PLL, but I think the RPL would maybe be better, though I'm sure, I'm looking to buy one of them myself  ;)

I think I will most likely buy the PPL, as its cheaper ( although less power ) and I really dont have $600+ for an RPL ;D

But i don't think i'll be able to buy the optics kit anytime if i buy the RPL
And i need the filters like IR/heat blocking filter and colored filters
