hey guys
I got a niceish laser for my birthday two years ago
and it died resently
so I want I new one
I want one were I can see the beam in the sky rather easily
still rather noticeable inside in the day time
and will last for another two years
for the most part I know nothing about lasers
annnd im cheep :x so if I could spend less than $50 I would be extremely happy
but I will look at anything



so do you guys have any suggestions? :scared:

If you read around and look through the reviews they can be extremely helpful. Just to let you know, when lasers are cheaper, they are almost always underspec or put out a lot of IR.

Also 50$ might be a little tricky. You say you want quality but don't wanna spend a lot.

What is good isn't cheap. What is cheap isn't good.

Check out the recommendations on my site: Where to buy lasers from?

I would say o-like is your best bet in that price range. You could also try PA.

You would need a charger from that site too. Radioshack has rechargeable ones and primary ones. At least mine does.

Seems like a good way to start yes. I have that same charge floating around. And you never can have to many batteries
