They both have equal quality (low-to-medium). The difference is: Rayfoss is also a manufacturer and o-like is just a distributor (reseller) of laser products [AFAIK].
They both guarantee output to meet what they claim, but I have gotten a few duds (poor laser alignment, bad lens, etc...) from o-like and never a dud from Rayfoss. (With over 20 laser shipments to me [USA]).

Rayfoss is not a manufacturer, they are a reseller.

Rayfoss

Hmm... Are you sure about this? Can you provide proof?
I was under the impression (from discussions with Faona) that Rayfoss was the original manufacturer of the following items:
RF532-xxxmW-FLX (focusable green)
RF532-xxxmW-QxT (waterproof green)
RF660-xxxmW-FxT (waterproof, focusable red)
RF405-xxxmW-QPT (waterproof, focusable bluray)
Also, I haven't seen the following product anywhere other than o-like:
OLGT200 & OLGT100 (Gatling laser)
If the companies offer a "repair" option, (IMO) they must be more than a reseller.

Personally, I would chose the Rayfoss one. If for no other reason; it is focusable (without a toothpick) and the o-like on isn't.
Also, you get safety goggles and a charger (which the o-like one doesn't come with).
Plus, you will get a more powerful laser (by approx. 50mW), and a 3-month (exchange) warranty and a 6-month (repair) warranty with Rayfoss.I guess the drawback (if you are worried about IR) is that the Rayfoss one has no IR filter (which would probably bring it down 20% [to <300mW), which is still very powerful. :lasergun:

Nah I dont worry about the IR.If I would buy from the O-Like I would want it without IR filter anywayPersonally, I would chose the Rayfoss one. If for no other reason; it is focusable (without a toothpick) and the o-like on isn't.

The only thing is if the O-Like has better quality than Rayfoss.Otherwise Rayfoss one is MUCH better.Goggles,charger,battery and nice warranty.
If they are both same in the quality I will buy Rayfoss.

O-like used to be better, but now I'm pretty convinced that Rayfoss has better lasers. O-like changed sites a while ago, which resulted in the loss of almost all of the lasers (not sure what happened), so Rayfoss has a better selection available, too.

sincerely... i quote you!!!
since olike created the new site... it lost a lot of lasers....and the price of olike is higher that rayfoss......yes.. olike is the first low cost TESTED company that sell lasers.... but i've heard too much underpowered lasers from many lpf members..... i don't know why!
also i....purchased a 120+ green pen...but i received a 30/40 mw pen.
i returned it... susie told me it was good?.....good? the power was the same of my DX 30mw kaleidoscopic pen. i think olike is a good store.... but the probability to get a n underpowered laser is becoming worrying

Although, I just ordered my 100mW FLX Friday. Faona told me it would ship on Monday, but she wrote me back on Monday telling me "her colleague" had confused the order number, and I had to confirm which product I was ordering. I hope it works out fine... I was assuming it would ship today.
She was really helpful during the entire thing though, so I have faith it will get here.

ya faona told me it would ship by tuesday, but it didn't end up shipping until friday, but since i had dhl it still arrived monday!
