This is my first review so have mercy on me :D


Ordering, shipping and handling etc. So i ordered it and it took the laser 12 days to arrive to Sweden from Hong Kong. Not to shabby. But one thing that bothered me was that they shipped it to my local P.O instead of my selected shipping address (my home ofc...). So i get a letter from my P.O saying that they had recieved a package that belonged to me. And i was like ooookk that's weird... After a closer look on the letter i realised it was my laser. So i got really paranoid and nervous thinking that they had opened the package and found the laser or something and that i would get in trouble with the police and everything, LOL. But everything went ok. This is the only bad thing i've experienced with laserbtb. When i wrote to them saying that my laser was shipped to the wrong address they responded with absolutely horrendous english and grammar. I could barely understand what they were trying to say...


Enough of that! Time for the laser! :D :D


Packaging was fine i guess, it came in a really nice black solid gift box in a paper casing wrapped with a thin layer of bubblewrap.

The laser feels very solid and good in your hand. It has a really good weight to it and it looks really good. No scratches or anything! The only thing i can complain on is that the button feels a little bit cheap and wiggly. Could be a little bit more solid. And that it didn't come with a battery :( Otherwise i'm really REALLY happy with it!


OVERALL I'm really pleased with the laser and it has a really beautiful beam. I have never used a 100mW laser before and i was pretty amazed by it at first. Can't wait to get a stronger one:eg: i would LOVE to give you guys some pics of beamshots but my iPhone 4S camera is way to bad at picking up the beam so i'm sorry that i couldn't give you guys beamshots.. And i can't burn things yet either, i do not have the proper eyewear to be able to burn things. YET:eg:. I am going to order a pair of Eagle Pair safety glases when i have the money and time.


Thanks for reading and putting up with my bad english :D Take care guys! :beer:

Nice review. I still think you should take some beamshots even if you iPhone can't pick them up properly(100mW of 532 is always nice to see :D)

nice laser you got, remember to use it safe, since its 532 i bet it peaks alot more then 100mW so it should be very bright at night :D

I can take beamshots fine with an iPhone 4, odd you can't. Have you tried with the laser going directly away from you or towards you? Take care with the last one obviously.

Take care with the last but due to Rayleigh scattering the beam is brighter viewing towards the source vs from the source if viewing angle is asaumed near parallel with beam angle.

I can't belive i've never tried that, only tried taking pictures of it when holding the laser in my hand. I feel so incredibly stupid now *facepalm of shame*. I'll go out asap and try taking some pics with the beam shining towards me. Raining like mad now and it has been raining the entire day.. Swedish weather.... And sorry for responding so late, i have been through a lot of work and stuff lately. Again thanks for the help!
