A few days ago, I was on here talking about trying out Amazon's high powered green lasers. So I did.
I bought this:
Amazon.com: MillionAccessories Adjustable Focus 5mW Green Laser Pointer Pen With Safety Key + Battery + Charger: Electronics
First, I'll start with the looks and price. It comes with the battery, charger, and there is even a lock on it. For only $30. The host is nice, black painted metal all around, with a metal focus. The focus to me is pretty nice. Twist it all the way down, and its a solid beam. Twist it all the way out and its for burning. Much easier than my Yobresal to focus.
So for looks and price, its a solid 5 star.
But what about the power? How powerful is "high powered"?
I did some testing, and found out some things:
When focused for burning, it burns:
Electric tape
Green matches (very fast)
Black clothing
Stings skin on contact
Black plastic
When focused for a beam, it burns:
Makes electric tape smoke
Stings skin quickly
When seeing what it does, I looked at the chart from wicked lasers. According to their chart, 50mW stings skin. So it is above 50mW. But it does not light black tipped matches without being focused, so it is below 100mW. They say that it takes 75mW to pop a black balloon, but unfortunately, I don't have one.
SO, for power I would say that this is around 75mW. On Amazon, it says that it is 5mW, and the power label on the laser itself says 5mW. So you definitely are getting a much more high powered laser.
So, for power and performance, I will say 5 star. As long as it doesn't break on me later.
Here are some pics: It looks better in person.
Here are some pics with effects:
So, to sum it up, I would say that if you bought a laser off of Amazon, you won't be disappointed. I wish I could tell you exactly how powerful it was, but I don't have a meter. But to get a near 75mW green laser in a nice host with a lock and focus for only $30 Prime, I would say that you are getting a pretty good deal! 5 stars!
