hi im debating witch laser i should buy... a 300mw blue 445nm or a 100mw green.. i want a laser that is extremely bright...has a good beam and can hit distant objects such as stars, trees sides of buildings ect and to inpress people ... witch should i get for this? how bright will each be in comparison to each other?... note-i already have a few weaker maybe 15mw and 50mw green lasers
both from lazerer

LZSK - 532nm 100mW Focusable Green Laser Pointer --100mw green

Green is a brighter, more visible colour to the human eye but i' m not sure about it with the difference in power... I know blue laser pointers are a lot cheaper then green ones at higher power levels and they have quite the burning power... Personally I think Blue looks a lot cooler (maybe because its uncommon). If brightness is the only thing that matters I'd say go for the green one...

The green one may be more suitable for your needs. i am looking for a laser pointer for burning online and in a site blog i find this post, which may helps.
green is the most visible laser pointer color for the human eye is most sensitive to green light. Therefore, it is more visible to the distant places. The other reason could be the effect of light in the earth’s atmosphere. Green is a medium wavelength so it scatters more and is more visible than longer wavelengths such as red. At the same output power, a green portable laser will appear much brighter than either a yellow, blue or red laser.

well the blue one would be great for burning but the most important thing is being able to focus for burning...also 405nm violet is the best burner.

one with more than 100mw output power can burn matches, fireworks, balloon, etc
