Don't get the non-newwish 50mW. I had one and it was slightly worse than my True DX30mW, which is not crap. It is just not as aesthetically appealing as say a WL Core, but a whole lot more powerful and fun.

If you just want to mess around with it, Just get a 5mW Leadlight from stonetek.org. Expensive but QC probably better than a DX5mW. Your choice really.

I have a WL Core and it is really pretty. Not much power to it but still a pretty neat laser to have, assuming it is putting out 5mW that is. ;)

I like to mod the WL Core as it has a neat case, it's fairly cheap, and I can usually mod with no drilling or disassembly other than removing the button. :) I guess I find the Core more elegant I had 2 of those 50 mW DX lasers and they are much brighter, and only a little longer and fatter, but I think it's all in the application and the beam and case sharpness for some of the wants/ needs!

I have pot modded a few lasers, and with a WL Core, I pry the button off. Then I use a ice pic tip to turn the plastic shroud under the button rotating it out of the way. looking thru the button hole, upwards toward the beam exit end, I see the pot screw, carefully turn it clockwise, test by wedging a toothpick sideways between the inside of body and shroud to light up, when beam is bright as wanted, carefully reverse rotate shroud and re apply button (I use the spot of double sided tape that was on the button before). If you are very careful, it looks like you never touched or messed with the inside. Viola! ;) :) :) :)

I was going to get the dx 20mw stainless steel leadlight clone but it is out of stock.
looks just like a leadlight except forthe switch at half the price.
Our favorite friend picrthis ;) measured it at over 20mW
