HI I just got my new dragon laser, supposed to be around 95mW. The problem is is that when I press the on/off switch the dot is very very bright for a second or two, like what it should look like, then after that second or two, it is very dim. It's really strange. It's like it is the 95mW laser for a second after I turn it on then after that second it is like a crappy 5mW, it actually dims while its on. Help!!

Heres a pic

Sorry bout that - return material Autorization - talk to them, explain the issue - even email them the link to your vid if need be. They SHOULD then offer to have you return the laser for a new one. You will probably have to pay for return shipping, though so be prepared for that - not sure how they do it, I could be wrong. Lots of good things being said about that company - so they should do the right thing. Let us know how it turns out, okay ?

Sure, as long as there's interest, I'll keep everyone updated ;D

Yes, updates please nin

It looks like the lens is damaged too or possibly the crystal itself......just look at that line going across the dot WOW.....not good. If its losing power its definitely the crystal thats cracked I reckon :eek:
