As my first post i figured i would contribute somthing somwhat usefull to you guys. I've ben following the forum for quite a few months now, but have yet to register because i didn't feel i need to clutter up the forums with my pointless banter.
Anyway, on to the review.

So i have no way of actually meaasuring the ouput of this laser, but i assume it is in the range of 5-10mw.
comparing it to a 30mw laser that i believe to be actual output.
Pros: tight beam
heavy feel
no mode hopping
Cons: not 50mw by any means
Beam was hiting the side of the lens appeture
cheap threads
bad clicky button
I would probably buy this again just because it is so cheap. the appeture i had to round out with a drill so it wasn hitting the side. When the laser is turned on, it is instantly bright, then drops to about half of its peak output, as well as the beam moving to one side (hence it hitting the appeture). it's a fun laser to just play with and have around. nothing super spectacular. and it still blows your friends mind when they can see the beam, even when it as poor as this one.
I plan on giving this one to my girlfriend, and buying the 50mw led shoppe.
Shipping from them was okay. it was actually opened at customs, and not confiscated. it arrived with the batteries already in the body of the laser. that just shows how poor the output is when customs won't even take it haha!
sorry for the lack of pictures.
my computer is down, and im on a friends laptop.
Thanks to everyone on this fantastic site for all of the info on these lasers.
I also have a Dilda from 0-like and i Love love love it!!
