Well I thought I would try these out. They were on ebay for about 1 day before they went away and I bought one. But they refunded my money thanks to ebay. After finding their store and learning that they are in the USA I decided to try them out.
Silver 50mW Green Laser Pointer : BargainCell.com - Bargain Cellular Phone Accessories

They shipped fast and I got them in less than 1 week. They came in a nice gift box without batteries. My first though was standard china version probably <20mw. Then I noticed the lens cap unscrewed upon removal I noticed it had a red/pink AR coating. After inserting 2 Wegmans generic AAA batteries I was greeted with a very bright light. All 4 worked well but I noticed 2 were brighter. So I got the old LPM out and got the following results 52mw, 52mw, 78mw, 84mw. Holy crap 84mw on startup with no warm up time. Shining it through my red glasses I got almost no green out then looking through my camera I was not able to see an IR dot so maybe they are filtered? These are great. I just thought I would share so here are pics.

I do not know if it means anything but through my glasses I see more light from the IR LED on my TV remote through my camera then I do from this laser.

Try placing your glasses between the laser beam and your LPM and see how much the LPM shows.

So I tested it on the LPM after the glasses and I got 81mw before the glasses and I maxed at 6mw after. Does not seem like a lot of IR.

Forgot to mention, if you spend $25 or more, you can use coupon code "bc5free" for $5 off your order.
