I have a Dragon Lasers Spartan 1W blue which I bought several years ago and rarely use because I have since upgraded to better ones. The other day I went to use it and absentmindedly forgot about the little safety plug that screws into the hole where the beam is emitted. I clicked the activation button and nothing happened, so I clicked it several more times before realizing my mistake. At this point I hadn't kept track of how many times I had pressed the button and now had no idea if the laser was on or off. I thought about it for a bit and removed the batteries. When I examined it I found that the laser had indeed been firing with the plug in place - less than a minute in total.
So is there any possibility that the contained beam and/or built up heat has damaged any of the components? I think I recall reading somewhere in this forum that the lenses are plastic in these models. So far it seems to be functioning normally and I don't see any difference in the beam but I thought I would check with the experts here.
