1000mW is the highest that is even sold on the internet, and those are around $800+ so its pretty much guaranteed to be a scam.

Yep,,,thats in the 200mw price range.

Its funny how the pictures where you could possibly read the power output on the warning label seem to have a red smudge.

Hi guys since i'm reasonable new to here i would like to know is this a real site and how can they possible sell lasers this strong and cheap?

5000mw green laser laser 5000mw green laser pointer burn cigarette for sale

Also look at the ridiculous prices on there site
All items for sale

I don't know whether to buy from these guys?
Even you say that the prices are ridiculous... Why then
would you ask us if you should buy from them...:thinking:

Common sense dictates that you can't buy a 5 Watt 532nm
Laser for $103.00USD...

They no doubt have 2 too many Zeros in that power rating..

You can't even by a Raw 5Watt 808nm Pump diode for that
price...

If it sounds to good to be true... it usually is...

It's not too good to be true you can buy stronger then 1w lasers online and for cheap my roommate went to Tokyo and came back with a 3w laser and after playing with it I decided I wanted one so after about an hour of surfing the web I found the same one as his for 10 bucks cheaper and it's 5w I just received it today (took a month to ship over seas) and it is a legitimate 5w laser kinda scary how strong it is I can't remember the exact website I got it from but I'm sure I can find it in my email so message me and ill get you the URL

I would like to find a 500mw for that price I got a 800mw one time and it was 80mw on my LPM I would say it is a 50mw it would take around 20w 808nm to get 5w 532nm so look at the price of a 20w 808nm diode.

Did you verify the power on a LPM?
If not then it's not 5W. Burning power and visibility are not good for estimating power.

Alright I guess I shouldn't say it's a legitimate 5000mw laser since I haven't tested it thats just what it says on the label on the laser but I paid 100 bucks for it and I can burn holes in dark cd cases from 10 feet away so I'm happy with the burning power and I think it's better then spending 800 bucks for a name brand one that does the same thing
