I think the lase one might be more bacause its waterproof. www.rayfoss.com - this one has the best design in my opinion. I bought it a couple years ago but it broke within a few weeks :/ I would recommend also checking out the lasers at o-like.com :)

I recommend the second one. It looks to have a much better heatsink than the others and it looks to have a sturdier design overall. It's not waterproof, but you should not use your laser under water anyway (Laser radiation reflecting back into the diode is bad and shortens the lifetime).

the diode randomly died maybe i was just unlucky lol. but you the second one is the nicest it has a shutter in the front to keep the dust out and a nice focusing ring. also has a nice weight to it and the keys a nice feature. theres also an led that lights up when you lasers in use.

#3.

With 1 cr123a it's very compact for pocket carry. In combination with the side button which has to be held, it makes for a very safety friendly laser.

Also I have two of the same design from o-like, and they both work very well. I would keep the duty cycle to two minutes... although the laser could probably handle longer.
