it arrived in exactly 2 weeks to WA state, USA and since it was my very first laser i was very impressed. i went to radio shack and bought a cr123 charger with 2 batteries. i went home and charged them and as soon as they were charged i put them in. the laser seemed very bright (this was indoors during daytime). the dot was bright and i loved it because it was my first high power laser. but i now know the flaws with this laser, such as that it starts out extremely bright and after 4 seconds it goes dim. at night the beam is clearly visible outdoors. the laser does not pop balloons or light matches or even heat up anything. but that was to be expected. this laser also eats through batteries extremely fast, and i will only let it be on for 15 seconds with 5 seconds of off time because otherwise it drains the batteries too fast, the build quality is very nice and i haven't noticed any paint chipping, (i take good care of it) the threads are greased and the lens is glass. over-all i love it and i hope it lasts a long time. i usually only use it at night outside because otherwise it is just bright, with no cool stuff like a visible beam.
if you have questions feel free to ask ;D
EDIT: the laser doesn't dim, well it does but only when the batteries are extremely used
