Hi, I been browsing on dealextreme and they had some very good prices but its seems like they do not ship laser higher than 5 mw to the US. Can anyone tell of a place I can get a good reliable 50mw green laser for a good price in the US?

Thanks

Wejll lets see, there is SkyPointer you will have to ask for the higher mW lasers as they are not advertised and Howies lasers have a 1yr warranty with the lowest beam divergence you'll ever find, about <0.4mrad. My 50mW cost me about $180.00, like I said, these are great lasers and they are guaronteed. For example, I can shine my 165mW green laser at a building (during the daytime) and then shine the 50mW at the same building and I can see the 50mW farther away because of the much smaller laser dot. The other option is Optotronics Laser Products and here you can find great lasers too. His premium +55mW laser is $96.00
http://www.optotronics.com/green-laser-pointers.php and has a divergence of 1.2mrad. Then there is Z-Bolt.com they sell lasers too. That is all I know without Googleing for more options. Hope this helps.

Hey Emc2, thanks for the info. But I'm not looking to pay $180 or $96 for a laser. DealExtreme has the 50mw for $20.90. Is there anywhere I can get one for $50 for less.

Well yes there is... amazon.com has the green 50mW green lasers for under $30.00 but take in mind a frind of mine had ordered one and it was not up to spec. It was no brighter than his 20mW and he sent it back, got another one, it too was 20mW or less and advertised as a 50mW. Most of the so called 50mW lasers for under $30 are not very good and don't put out the advertised mW. I would go to amazon and read the reviews of these first before buying one.

O-like.com has some good greens I think.

I'd say go with o-like. They test their lasers, if you look around the forum everyone seems to love them. And they're cheap!!! Excellent prices too

Yes, you have to go outside of the U.S. for the better deal. Susie at o-like will make you happy.

hey, if you're looking for cheap, good lasers... these are the best I'd recommend :http://ledshoppe.com/Product/ledp/LP1076.htm and 50mW 532nm Powerful Green Laser Pointer (Silver) $21.94 - Free Shipping

Basically, most of the ones on FocalPrice are cheap like DealExtreme, but the one I linked has a good review by JayRob, and I too have that one (not the LEDShoppe one, but the LEDShoppe one has great reviews too), and the FP one I'd say is quite bright and is in a more unique case. Personally, I think you'll love it.

Ohh, and LEDShoppe has coupon codes, just look on the "discounts" section of the Forums... and as for FocalPrice, if you do order, would you kindly go through this referral link before you do (since I did refer you)... it works the same as DX's referral system: http://www.focalprice.com?d=6MY/Oi5...r6OjDu4HXiaSdBwW6K&s=cPAB8bHuQH9ylhjpUu/WFQ==

And, FocalPrice also has DX's NewWish style Pen laser 50mW here for only $17.45 (but, it may be underpowered... the other one I linked will probably be stronger): 50mW 532nm Powerful Green Laser Pointer Pen $17.45 - Free Shipping
