Hello Community!
I found this forum after googling reviews for a 1W Blue Laser, which fascinated me. I thought about buying one.
Reading through the forums a lot teached me though, that thats no good idea!

Would you say a 100mw laser is ok, for a beginner?

The forums also teached me, that wickedlasers is not so good and that dragon lasers is pretty good.

So I searched around dragon lasers and found this one:
Hulk Series 100mW Green Handheld Laser :: Green Handheld Laser --- 532nm Laser ----- Hulk Series Lasers :: Handheld Lasers :: Dragon Lasers

Would you recommend it? I would think there are cheaper 100mW Lasers, when a 1000mW Laser only costs ~100$ more? Is this one worth the price?

I hope these are not too general questions, which you get asked all the time and somebody feels like helping me out!

Thank you for reading and your time!

Have you tested the hulk for IR? It does look like a nice Laser.

Here's a nice one too from a good company....

RIFLE532nm - 100mW Focusable Burning Green Laser

You can get the effects lens kit for it too for $10 and adds to the enjoyment. A lot cheaper than the Hulk. Not sure if it's as reliable, but might be a good choice for an entry level laser.

They are out of the 150mw...

If you do deside to get that or any other laser from lazerer remember to select the "power certificate" option. Just 5$ extra and you will know for sure how strong your laser is :)
