What do you guys use your lasers for? Do you use them for experiments, astronomy or any other uses.
 





I use them to repel the zombie hordes that attack every night :tinfoil:

I for one use them as a pretext to waste countless hours of my life on this forum, talking about them.

The way I think about it...
You can either waste hours of your life doing something you enjoy or you can waste hours of your life doing something you don't enjoy.

I do plenty of both. :(
 
Well, for one I design and built my own high powered LED fixtures for reef tanks, night clubs, etc. Laser based fixtures are next.

It also helps I volunteer for two animal shelters with about 150 free roaming cats between the two.

You have no idea what it's like to walk into a room with 35 cats bored out of their minds, and then firing up a 40mW greenie. You become the most important thing in the universe - instantly.

Hmm picking up hot chicks with lasers! Can you optically trap them:eg:

No, but you can blind them, knock them out, tie them up, and throw them in your car's trunk for later, uninterrupted enjoyment. :shhh:

Do not try this at home. It can only be done under the supervision of trained professionals.

The beams are pretty, and it is a great way to learn more about electronics. :)

(The girl thing sounds nice, although I might get some comments when carrying a trussed up one onto a subway train or buss.:eg:)
 
You can always tell people you're doing a stunt for a TV show like Jackass. Works for me. :tinfoil:
 
There are not too many other things you can use laser "pointers" for. If you went on PL and asked the same question, you'd get a much different response.
 
I got mine simply because I like unique things and I feel a 500mW+ handheld will soon be illegal to buy. I do have fun shutting off my street lights. Also, nightime photography just got more fun for me.
