So, right now I have a 5mW (more like <5mW) laser, and i wanted to get a more powerful one that i can use at my home and not in the general public (like i do with the "legal" one)
Is the $24.57 30 mW deal to good to be true? The review are very good on it though, but they have no IR filter.
So what I was wondering is if i shine it at a wall with no glasses on, would it hurt my vision? I know it would if i shined it in my eye, but i wouldn't do that!
Also, would i want to block the IR or the Green Laser? Cause the glasses they make seem to be the ones that block red/blue/green/IR, and i don't know about combo glasses. So does any one here have a good link to a site that sells the cheap glasses, whichever ones you guys think I need?
Don't know if I will be able to get this laser, but was curious, I am kinda new to the scene so go easy on me! lol
EDIT: Hmm... now i see that it may have a dimming problem, most people are saying it is the crystal and the cheap crystal they use is sensitive to temperature. There are a few people saying it is the battery output though... so idk. I personally don't have that problem with my <5mW laser.
