New to the forums here!
Last week, I was so pumped because I ordered my Nexus 95mw laser from WL. Then the next day I found this forums....you can all probably imagine what I was thinking..."I made a mistake!". Then I thought maybe I might get one of the nicer units...maybe even an upgrade!
Friday: The laser arrived. Open it....I did get upgraded to a fusion! How cool! So I get new batteries and start attempting to pop balloons and light matches. I found some dark colored balloons thinking I won't need to use a sharpie to aid the popping....After several tries, I couldn't pop it no matter how close or far I was, so I resorted to a sharpie, which then took about 3 seconds to pop the balloon from about 6 inches. I then try some matches, and was once again disappointed that I could not light a single one WITH sharpied tips. So, I kept it for this weekend to show some friends since they wouldn't really know the difference. This so-called fusion is definately underpowered.
I have decided to RMA it and get a full refund. I plan on ordering an x105 from Nova lasers, due to all of the positive experiences I have heard along with the awesome prices.
Of course, I'm not going to place another order yet until I get my money back. Has anyone had any experiences with returning a laser to WL for a full refund? From what I've seen people haven't had trouble, but how long might it take?
