i have a 200mw red laser and suddenly it goes very dim and does not stay lit? does this mean the laser just died? it is a few years old so its possible but will they just die randomly ? i follow the duty cycle and it was burning the night before..ot is this a fixable issue...i charged the batteries..did not work

Have you tried changing the batteries?

i used some rechargeable ones that work in a different laser so yes...but it looks just like when the batteries are low...like a 5mw red,,, instead of a 200mw..

well tha bats work in other lasers so they are good...i had the laser for about 3 years...and it was $35 so it was a good run for it...it was just random for it to die like it did...
