"No IR filter for maximum output" is found in the product highlights. This could be a potential drawback, especially for that price. For that much money, you could have a MUCH nicer laser. Maybe not 150mW but the overall product would be enormously higher quality and last much, much longer. Just check laserglow.com or optotronics.com.

I know it doesn't have a IR filter and that the quality may not be as good, but I already have a lower power green laser that works fine. I want a little more power this time around.

Well, if you've decided that's what you want then by all means buy it.

If I answer a question, I give an honest answer. I still feel that you could find much more value for your money if you keep looking.. :)

Did you watch that video? It looked like the V2 50mW in the video couldn't even burn the black plastic at point blank range! With the plastic stretched and everything!

Good Luck... If you do buy it please come back and give it a good review. I'd be interested in its qualities/power.

Yeah well ElectroFreak is right I think I'm still gonna get the alpha 105. :) I don't want to deal with replacing it if it turns out to be crap. Plus I talked to someone on YouTube and he said his mode hops. He's getting two 75mW dots at twenty feet. :(

Yes I live in the US. The only problem with mine in general is that it mode hops when it gets too warm inside, so I need to let it cool down. I guess that's good in a way cuz it's warning me that I'm gonna fry it if I continue to keep it on lol.
So, not all of these lasers will mode hop, but mine does. Besides that, it's a great laser, I love it, it's bright and powerful.

really? dang.. my first one didnt mode hop.
Strange, when it first started modehoping it it was the 2 dots merged together, but now it's 2 seperate dots! that's only when it actually does mode hop.

kaidomain com/ProductDetails aspx?ProductId=1222 (Cant post links, put a period in the spaces *.*)
