My new O-Like 50Mw Laser

Hi all, well I have just recently bought a 50mW laser for O-like which seems pretty cool. It can pop balloons without any black marker as well burn plastic, the beam can also hit the clouds or at least it appears that way.

Here is some pics :





I have some balloon popping video too,


YouTube Vid- O-Like 50mW Green Laser


Compared to my old 30 True green from dealextreme, my new O-Like Laser is pretty bright.

I was just wondering is there any point in having the laser focusable? As at the moment I have got it turned all the way down so that the dot on the wall is the smallest. But If I turn it up the dot becomes bigger, besides making it look like a cool torch is there any point to a big dot? I know the smaller it is allows thing to burn easier.


Also when I shine the laser indoors in a confined space, everything starts to have a weird green snow like tv effect is this normal ?
Its kinda trippy.

Anyway its on cool laser that I am happy, it seems so much powerful than my 30mW.
I have no idea what its real output is though.

Nice laser, it would seem the hobby has snagged another unsuspecting person :evil:

The speckling you see is normal, it could be from dust on the lens causing some of the
beam to scatter.

There's a DX laser with the same host. It's also 50mW up to spec, maybe overspec.
(The same wrong label too)
Take a look at mine.

And, about your question: When it's focused to give you a big dot, it burns things MUCH better, when they're close, cause it aprproaches the focal point.
