well WELL ! so i bought a laser from ALIEXPRESS ! YES I DID ! Free Shipping 301 100 200mW 405nm Adjust Focus Violet Laser Flashlight with 2 Switch and Lock (2CR123A)-in Laser Pointers from Office & School Supplies on Aliexpress.com
well just like any other non trust able Chinese online store :scowl: i received a bad laser :cryyy: not a non working piece of crap, but still its not that well build >_<" hopefully i got the laser in a nice little white green laser box
with the charger,the keys and the safety strap (no batteries due o new Chinese customs laws) ANYWAY HERES WHAT HAPPENED: the laser was not working ! the button was broken!! i was able to push the button and hear the click but the laser was not working ( used new batteries! ) what was the problem.... well ...the spring that returns the button from the module( not sure if thats the right definition ) was not springing back enough for me to push it again and make that laser work, making it impossible to turn ON the laser. At the end i managed to make it work but i had to struggle to not break module from the diode. ONE THING IS THAT THE COMMUNICATION IS REALLY GOOD AND THEIR SERVICE TOO ! somehow i got a bad product, it could happen to anyone. The good part is that the laser is able to burn things like paper pretty fast, light matches,cut electrical tape, burn rubber,almost anything, i even was able to smoke black metal !!! WEIRD BUT TRUST ME ! I DID ... also you can really see the beam at night...i would say good enough to battle with my greene ( 100mW). The focusing ring is pretty smooth,the laser host and tail cap is made out of metal, the keys work pretty good and they look sick ^_^ ,
the strap ......well...its just a strap ^____^ . the laser will not drain up the batteries in one hour, it actually depends on own you use it , to much use low battery life, not much use = "long battery life" anyway ! i hope you like this review ! please comment and if i HAVE TO IMPROVE SOMETHING PLEASE LET ME KNOW !!! THANKS !!!!!

BASICALLY HERES THE PROBLEM...SEE THAT WHITE BUTTON...WASNT WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE THE STANDARD BUTTON THAT YOU PUSH WAS NOT LONG ENOUGH TO REACH THE WHITE ONE AND BLA LA BLA !
online photo storage
HERE ARE THE REPLACEMENTS FOR THE STANDARD BUTTON, THESE ARE NOT ACTUAL BUTTONS THEY ARE JUST SIMPLY 2 PIECES OF ANTENNA TUBE HOLDERS FOR RC CARS ^_^ ( I HAD TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING ^_________^) THE SMALLER ONE FITS JUST RIGHT TO MAKE IT A PUSH ON RELEASE OFF BUTTON, THE BIGGER ONE ITS A BIT FATTY SO IF I NEED A MOMENTARY BUTTON I JUST REMOVE THE SMALLER ONE AND STALL THE BIGGER ONE ! LOL:eg:
