Hey
Only difference is battery: one is cr123 and the other one is cr2.
I can only say that my 200mW bluray looks like this one: www.rayfoss.com
had a really bad divergence. But on low distances it was easy to focus and was a great burner. Well I don't know if it's the same eith the red one.

So should I buy it?

I would go for the cr123 style laser. The cr123 cells tend to have a higher mA rating compared to the cr2, giving more power over a longer period of time. You can also find them a little easier the cr2 cells.

Are you buying this laser as a straight up burner? If so I would get a dilda from O-Like.

It comes with rechargeable cells, and a charger. Plus you will find that it will burn things much easier, since it wont have the extra piece of glass found in the waterproof model.

I just wanted to quote that particular line.. I noticed this recently on my little Romisen flashlight style green laser. Take out the glass lens (that appears super clean & clear) and the output gains over 10mW. The lens does rob some power.

For cheap red, I always vote dilda.
