Hello everyone,
today i was playing with my fully charged laser pointer. I tried burning a match, it worked and everything went fine but after burning it and trying to turn it on in the yard it seems that my laser lost its focus even with the head on. I may have accidentally touched it. When i remove the focus head it looks like the beam is getting stuck on the lasers head. This is sdlaser302 and yes it is with glue.

With the head(focused): Gyazo - 1fb3c132871fc257296eb58cfebe236b.png
This is a 30mw green 532nm focusable laser from laserpointerpro. Idk what happened..
Btw, in the photos it seems like its bright enough but its not, it used to be really really much more brighter and focused in one dot.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Please someone help me :cryyy:.

If its focusable, it might have been bumped out of focus, and you just rotate the focus ring, etc, to bring it back into focus.

Is there something else going on?

Looks to me like you may have gotten the lens too close to the smoke or match fallout when it lit and the lens either got dirty or it is actually damaged. Plastic lenses are VERY easily damaged.

Those lenses are with high quality i guess because they almost cost more then this laser :D. I need a cheap plastic lens for my focusable green laser 30mw 532nm.
