Hello and welcome to the forum

Yes it can light match since it 100mw and focusable.
O-Like has a bad reputation, so it might be under-spec.

I guess you will know if the Laser you ordered will
light a match when you try it.

You will need to do a little research and reading on
the Forum. You can start in the Companies and
Reviews sections of the Forum to get an idea of
which companies will suit your needs..

The specifications say its working current is <300mA So i am positive it will be On-Spec .. I can tell because , the minimum diodes which are capable of handling 200+mA are the 16x DVD Didoes which output at 150-200mW max.. So it is safe to say these are actually a good deal..

One thing....if it is 100mW, you will probably not be able to light the typical red headed matches. Black headed matches, or red ones that you sharpie black, should be no problem, but 650nm lasers don't seem to burn as well at lower powers as 405nm lasers due to the difference in photon energy.

Hope that makes sense, I am currently suffering from late-onset food coma so my thoughts are somewhat muddied. :/

No one is going to spoonfeed you good companies, go read through the companies and reviews sections, all you need to know is in there, as Jerry said.
