Welcome to the forum... :yh:I am also intrested in best first green from dx. Currently i am looking at DX true 30mW. Any thoughts ?
I've been buying from DX for about a year now with no regrets or risks...I already ordered 50mw one from ledshoppe, I think buying from DX is RISKY (click to see why)
try rayfoss.com or o-like it is better. dont just buy china made cheap lasers.. you will just lost your money...
I agree with both posts. I've made more than a hundred and fifty orders from dealextreme only 2 didn't arrive and one came defective. You usually see 10 guys saying the product is shit on every product, but note that for every 10 that say this there are a thousand that bought it and as the porduct was Ok didn't say nothing.Where do you think RayFoss and O-like are situated....

everything eventually shows up...
The shipping is Uber Slow.. but you can't beat the prices and Free Shipping.
Once in a while the site does go down... just like any other site could...
That does not make DX RISKY...

Is very visible beam on this red one?The 150 mW or 200 mW or 100 mW of green lasers of DX is not better choice,this green lasers can burn?THXHi Raul, welcome to the forum!
Please do a bit of searching on the site before you ask questions.
In this case I am going to answer since even searching a lot might not guide you completely to answer this question.
For seeing the beam clearly at night you need about 30mW or 50mW.
DX's site is not working right now but the green lasers which I would recommend are the:
50mW True - this one is the most expensive of the 3 but most visible (only a bit more though)
30mW True - this is the most sold one.. cheap and bright
30mW Kaleidoscopic - this is a VERY beautiful laser. It is about the same price as the other 30mW but has a head which can screw on and off to create hundreds of tiny dots instead of one. If you turn that head it will also make all the dots move around each other in a magical way. If you screw the head off, it is just a normal pointer at around 30mW. The other 30mW may be more powerful but not by a lot.
In fact, I suggest you begin with the Kaleidoscopic one - as it costs about the same and can work in the same way AND you get the brilliant bonus which makes it into a whole little lightshow, it is easily one of the best starter lasers. Beam will be very visible in the dark, especially if there is fog/smoke in the air.
They should all cost between $18 and $25 if I recall correctly.
If you are interested in something which can burn (yes, handheld lasers can burn stuff) and also want quite a visible beam the 200mW Red Burning Laser Pointer (the version with a rounded head) is the best option there is. You can buy it from DX or even better, get it from O-like for a bit more, but with batteries and charger!
