I purchased this 150mW 532nm Green Laser Pointer from SZWholesale or also known as http://www.qualitychinagoods.com/. The exact item I bought is this one
http://www.qualitychinagoods.com/532nm-green-laser-pointersetl150g-p-1151.html
Ignore the main picture...it is incorrect. They have since fixed the picture. They also sell this same version as a 200mW laser http://www.qualitychinagoods.com/200mw-532nm-green-lasersetlg200532-p-1167.html for $5.00 more??? Go figure? Anyway the 200mW item wasn't offered when I purchased the 150mW laser. The laser took about 4 weeks after I ordered it to arrive, supposedly it was on back order. Anyway, Jerry is there customer service dude and he is very responsive to my emails and has been very good to keep me updated on its status. I also ordered the 200mW Red laser Pointer but have since returned it because it was way under spec (not that this was any surprise), the red laser was only outputting about 30mW's. I'll update this thread when the red one is returned to me. Anyway, here are the pro's and con's of this item:
150mW Green portable Laser
Pro's: None...lol ;D Just joking...
Arrived in a nice box
Smaller then expected about 6 inches long and maybe an inch wide...hmmm reminds me of when I was a kid ;D
Has a small aperture window
On/off button with no delay
Focusable by twisting ring which is kind of cool because almost turns into a green flashlight
Nice key switch at end of barrel and once turned on the key can be removed
Uses a 18650 which are easy to buy and cheap
Cons:
It is not 150mW's of power, I measured it using a LaserBee I and it is putting out a max of 75mW's
I have tried several batteries and get the same results.
However, I am not really that surprised by the low output. I guess you get what you pay for and in this case I paid for a 50mW laser and received a 75mW by chance.
It is not IR filtered.
Other then being under powered it is a cool little device. It would also make a good host to drop one of Susie's modules into it if it ever quits. I don't plan on returning it because of the hassle and plus I will probably just use it as a cheap pointer during lectures. If you have any questions...fire away.
Awesome box...
Fancy cutouts for each piece...Awesome!
Closeup of special Key Lock
No Chinglish here folks...you have to be Chinese to work the "LASER"
Super technical sliding aperture window
Lasing the house on fire with its' awesome power
Be careful or you'll take your eye out boy!
Razzle Dazzle...
