I just received my Nova x125 today. It came with a label on the box stating 150mw maximum power and 141mw average. I quickly put a fresh set of AAA batteries in and give it a test. I was rewarded with a very bright spot on the wall. Cool. now, lets burn something. I grab a wooden match and attempted to light it from 6 inches away. No good after 20 seconds. I move farther back to maybe 1 foot, still no good after 20 seconds. I back way up to 3 feet, nothing. This is weird because the blu ray I just bought from kai burns a match from 3 feet away in 5 seconds. I can focus the blu ray though, not the Nova.
I move on to my skin. Yep, I get a small tingle when I leave the Nova in one spot. Still, the blu ray will make you flench it stings the skin so much.
Next up, ballons. I have some blue balloons. The blu ray pops them in a second. I test the Nova x125, more dissappointment. Nothing happens unless I use a black marker on the balloon with the greenie. Why? Is it because I can focus the blu ray and the Nova is fixed?
