I'm new to lasers and to start off I bought a 5 mW 405, 532 and 650. The 405 and 532 are from Chinese sellers and the 650 is from a U.S. seller. I know from reading the forum that "5 mW" 405s are actually in the range of 40 mW to 80 mW. My question is: is it likely that the 532 and 650 are stronger than 5 mW?

I'd say the 650 is 5mW. The 532 Could be anywhere from 5mW to 50mW its usually luck of the draw with 532's from the cheap chinese sellers.

The only way to know for sure is with a Laser Power Meter...
