I was going to buy a laser from Day's GB but it fell through .  :'(  Now I don't have a clue where I should get one.  Can anyone recommend a good green leadlight that puts out at least 100mw?

I recommend O-like, which is also situated in China and has great prices. Although the prices aren't as good as DealExtreme (Which you cannot order a 100mW green laser from DealExtreme if you are in the US), quality tends to be much higher, shipping is slightly faster, and the power is guaranteed, as O-Like is a laser company.
Another suggestion, which would really be the better choice if you have the money, would be to buy from NovaLasers, as they are the highest quality pen lasers around.

I've heard o-like was good, but I was hoping there would be some place where I could get deals like in Day's GB, but I guess that's not realistic. Thanks for the advice- I'll probably go with o-like.

I love my O-Like 100mw module, however I have yet to get around to putting in a nice host. Mine is easily capable of unfocused burning at close range, and sports a nice visible beam.

Why is DX not as good as O-like? Is it just that they tend to be under-spec or does it actually have to do with lifetime/quality?

DX doesn't ever check what they send out, they ship out whatever the factories send them. You never know what you'll get, there is a lot of good stuff shipped out, but some bad stuff too. I hear o-like tests their lasers before shipping out which helps eliminate future problems.

ACTUALLY dealextreme ships two lasers to the us. the true 50 mW and the true 100 mW green. why? i have no idea they will ship you any laser really but the 100 mW will be shipped with no questions. im telling you it works
