A few years ago I bought my first green laser off of ebay which was very close in looks (if not identical) to this...
Stylish 5mW 5 mW 532nm Green Beam Laser Pointer Pen New - eBay (item 280572810176 end time Dec-07-10 11:53:28 PST)
...but I don't think that is who I bought it from.
It was actually a very good laser IMO but it was my first so I had nothing to compare it to. Then I bought an O-Like 100mw module and compared the two. I could tell no difference in beam brightness or apparent distance. I have nothing to measure the output with. So anyway... I felt good about the first laser and it used AA batteries which made them cheap to replace and they had a decent life.
Now it has come up missing. (I still have the o-like module but that is for a project) I would like to replace it with another hand held pointer style laser. I have looked at o-like again but they appear to use somewhat expensive batteries.
Here is the o-like I am looking at...

I always have AA's on hand and they are cheap. So what should I do? Are there rechargeable lasers? How long do the CR123's last?
