Neither. Both are most likely crap.

You should create an introduction thread and tell us more about yourself, how you came to lasers, etc.

You should also edit your profile so that we can see where you're from. It might seem silly, but it does actually help sometimes, when asking questions.

In your introductory thread, you can also describe what kind of lasers you want, reasons why, etc. That will make it easier to give you a better referral.

Also, read all of the stickies on the forum. You will learn who is and who is not a good retailer for lasers.

Finally, for the love of your god, get yourself some quality safety eye wear BEFORE purchasing a high powered laser. You DO need it!

Check the lasers I have for sale in the BST section. You will find nice tested lasers and that is what you should get as your first laser, not some untested chinese laser that might have less than 1/10 of the declared power.

Norbyx, did you get to have a lot of fun w/ the 405nm I made for you before you sold it?

I still have it, I haven't sold it yet. As for the fun, to be 100% honest, I barely use my lasers, the 405 maybe has 10 min. total run time. It is a nice little laser, that is for sure.

Great advice having had a selection of lasers that came into the only about 1/10 of actual output compared to what they should be at least approximately :bowdown:

I found this
"http://www.rayfoss.com/productn.asp?ArticleID=230"

"Power Output >250mW"

probably more like 50mw right?

EDIT: on second thought, I think this one looks better
LZBH - 532nm 100mW Focusable Green Laser Pointer

your thoughts?

I'd go with rayfoss because it won't be that much off and I forgot that, lazerer has been ALOT worse lately, but both are bit of a gamble. But at least from them you will get your money back. Here's both sites compared( lazerer- is lazerer.com a scam or legit | lazerer.com reviews |check lazerer.com for fraud and risk | is lazerer.com safe | is lazerer.com fake |is com safe )

Rayfoss- is rayfoss.com a scam or legit | rayfoss.com reviews |check rayfoss.com for fraud and risk | is rayfoss.com safe | is rayfoss.com fake |is com safe

And I've heard good about this laser-
