A few days ago I received two orders I placed from O-Like. I am not amused.
One was basically dead on arrival... <5mw the first time I used it. After changing batteries, it stopped working altogether. The other has a bunch of crap being projected with the beam. Apparently this is "normal" for their multimode lasers.
Power Rock waterproof Red laser torch 250mW /Focusable 650nm
200mW 635nm waterproof red laser torch /bright
The 405nm 200mw was from Lazerer. I also purchased a 1.2w 445nm, a 500mw 405nm, and one of the mini 100mw 535 from Lazerer. The 445nm and the 500mw 405nm are flawless. The 200mw 405nm does have some stray light due to something internal moving about, but just turn it to the side and it'll go away.
Sorry for the crappy picture. The 635nm is bright, but that's as close to collaminated as it could get out of the box. I had to adjust the lens myself. The 650nm didn't even put a visible dot on a white wall 20 feet away during the day.
I'm returning these and filing paypal dispute. And I'll be ordering from Lazerer... hey it takes them a long time, but so far their products are at least collaminated and QC'd before they leave the shop.
And no, I'm not affiliated with either O-Like or Lazerer. I'm new here but I've been on Candlepower Forums for ages.
Susie asked for a better picture. The 650nm stopped working completely. The 635nm is shown here after I adjusted the collaminator lens and underexposed to better show all the artifacts or whatever you want to call the garbage coming out with the beam:
