Ooooch, your not really going to get much for 25.00. Nothing of decent quality. You can try eBay, but there a crap-shoot at that price. Sorrry to say :(

Hello im not trying ebay because you can end up with a stick and some light or an amazing laser with burning abilities :)
Maybe im going for an artic spyder 3 when i get the money and of course some glasses but for now i just want like these 200mw lasers. I have seen sanwu lasers have one. The green 100mw 532nm cost around 18 dollar and the red 100mw cost 10$ i think
What is the difference and which would burn best?

I stand corrected, didn't even think of Sanwu's 304 series. I have their pocket series and am very happy with them. Come to think of it I bought a 304 green off them awhile back as one of my first lasers, was very happy with it. So yes I think for the money it would be a great way to go. Think the green would burn better than the red. :thinking:

But I would stay away from the Wicked Lasers, for the money stick with Sanwu much better host and build quality. Check out their Spiker or Silver or any of them, their much better than WL's, and I own both. My opinion, hope it helps :)

Like that you know about safety glasses with the higher power units they will put an eye out quicker than you can blink . Also welcome and be safe :)

To get anything of real quality in the 200-500mw range you'll need to up your budget a bit. The Sanwu pocket series comes to mind.

Are you just trolling the forum with questions over and over again??

As Hap said --use the LPF search function to find answers

You already have the best answers you can get from everyone, a couple of times now.
Good quality lasers and /or high output lasers that burn well don't exist in your price range.--got it?
For what you want to spend all you can expect is low quality, bottom of the barrel, low end, mass produced, cheap toy quality Chinese laser.

The best you can do for the nothing you want to spend is a laser power metered Sanwu 304 which you said you were buying in your last similar thread. Did you buy one?? At least the output power has been tested.
See: https://www.sanwulasers.org/product/304green
You are not going to burn much with any of them but the 200mW 405nm violet focused properly will burn better than green or red ones offered but be less visible.
