I ordered it on January 19 (honestly, I'm surprised it arrived so soon), and I have two questions about it.

1) the battery charger is provided with a standard US-style plug, but I live in EU, which has a domestic voltage of 230V, as opposed to the 110V standard of the USA. Does this mean that I need a voltage adaptor (so that the charger receives a voltage of 110V) as well as a plug adaptor? Or does the charger work correctly with 230V as well?

2) When I use it, I put on these glasses I got from DragonLasers. There's a "small problem": when I put them on, I cannot see the red dot at all, which is good for my eyes, but does not allow me to see where the dot is, nor to focus the laser. So, how do I proceed to focus the laser at something? Do I have to record it with a video camera and look at the screen of the video camera instead of the actual laser?

1) you only need a plug adapter, the charger is 110-230V 50-60Hz

2) :/
Don't know what to do here.. Take the goggles off while focusing or buy new, weaker goggles.

Your goggles are too dark if you can not see the beam dot at all. Buy some with a lower OD.
