My house is situated out the country, about 5 miles away in one direction is a hill, so one day we decided to test out the lasers. We literally took turns driving over to the hill to shine back the lasers and compare brightness at that distance. Believe it or not the laser that came out on top happened to be a 200mw green fixed focus pen.
I haven't bought lasers in a a wile, so now i'm doing some online shopping again and here's the thing, i want a green laser that will beat our 200mw pen from such a distance, so i am looking at a 500mw green laser on o-like Powerful Crown upgrade 500mW green laser torch/waterproof [OL-532-500] - $274.99 : Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce this price for such a beast is reasonable in comparison to other sites however, that's not what i'm concerned about! Will a focusable green laser ever be a powerful at distance as a fixed, since even the slightest turn left or right of the focus head will widen the beam significantly at a distance right?
My only option is to maybe find a fixed green laser with a separate focusable head or a focusable one that can be switched to infinity and locked into place.
Thanks to readers any suggestions on lasers?
