Hi, can somebody help me? I have a 200mw red laser from budgetgadgets and i now want to buy a green one. (that ships in the us). Can anybody find me a good 1 from 100mw-200mw. I would really apreciate that and that if you tell me if like for example

a 50mw green is brighter than a 200mw red laser. (dont know if its true.)

so can you guys give me links and answers.

:)

glad to be of service.

the first link explains why green is brighter than red as well.

go to the companies section, look up o-like.

Other than that I gave you ALL the answers, that's why no one else is going to repeat them. ;)

optotronics is in the U.S. and it seems like they are very well respected around the forums!

How that 200mw red treating you? I'm getting that one and would like to get a green one next as well. Can you tell me how you feel about your red one?

I'm been looking at rayfoss, o-like, opto, and laserlands.

Yeah. It's nice and feels sturdy in the hand. It burns great! I mean it can light matches, pop balloons, engrave wood, even sometimes light steel wool! It's awesome but now I need a green 1 100mw+, for display reasons. :D Hope that can answer some of your questions.
