Need Recommendation For Green Laser

Hello, i have some questions about these lasers:

1. Is IR important and less safe?
2. I have seen on DX True Green Lasers like this one. How does it compare with this one?

What does true mean? Non-counterfeit laser?

I mostly need green laser for pointing at products in stores, pointing at objects, maybe for presentations and less for pointing at stars and playing. I need a safe and affordable normal quality green laser that is around or little over 10cm. The one with focus would be preferrable unless considerably more expensive.

Cheers!

A 5mW Green Laser would be good enough to point at products
in a store and would also be safer as well as being inexpensive..

IR from an unfiltered 5mW Green Laser should no be a problem
if you are careful not to shine the Laser at your eyes or get hit
by a reflection off a shiny object.

Browse the 'Reviews' section to find a laser that you like.

1. IR is bad, you won't see it. Thats why IR filter is important with high powered green lasers. (or you can use goggles that block 532nm & IR)

2. Those lasers are pretty much same.

I recommend you to order from Lazerer, its a really good site.

What is filtered laser?

1. IR is bad, you won't see it. Thats why IR filter is important with high powered green lasers. (or you can use goggles that block 532nm & IR)

So high powered lasers are unfiltered?

Lazerer has 30mW > lasers only and i need 5mW to stay safe.
