Hello Everyone! This is my first post 
My name is Hayden Barton, I am 15 years old (currently lol, I may be older if you read this at a later date) And i make product reviews for companies. The types of products i review are Gadgets, Computers, Games, Electronics, Weapons, Archery and everything else cool, but i also love LASERS!!! I may not have any videos of some of the things in that list, but that is what i will be reviewing on a whole.
You can find my Review Channel on YouTube, called TechBiteReviews, the link is here:
TechBiteReviews's Channel - YouTube
So anyways, enough about me :na: On to the review!
I have included the Unboxing and Review videos at the end of the post! after some of the sections of writing I have included the video to watch and the time to skip into the videos so you can see what i am talking out in that section.
So today I will be Reviewing a Waterproof 200mw Red Laser from Texas Laser Systems.
Whats in the box?
The Laser came in a well packed cardboard box from, it should of come from Texas Laser Systems but they was an error with the postal service or something, so they had to send it from there Chinese supplier.
In the cardboard box was the lasers box and a battery charger with a US plug socket for the included 18650 battery that was included (which I will talk about in a moment).
The lasers box was distinctively marked on the top with the words 'Laser Pointer' and a picture of a pointer lasing, all of it in shiny gold printing (Image 1).
[Image 1]
The lasers box lid was secured down with 2 magnets, keeping it closed. Inside there was the lasers wrist strap in the bottom left corner that attached to the laser with a simple loop. The 18650 Ultrafire Li-ion battery rated at 3.7v & 2400mAh, Turning the battery round shows some small writing that mentions ''Short-circuit and Over-current protection'' so the battery has a built in protection circuit which is always a good thing to be included. And in the top was the laser pointer (Image 2 & 3).
[Watch the Unboxing Video]
[Image 2] (A bit of burning and name engraving on the inside lid lol)

The Laser
The laser give a steady feeling to the hand, it seamed well made and gave a real RUGGED look with a nice shade of grey.
After switching it on, a cloud of precious red light poured out of the end of the pointer. I screwed the focus ring all the way down until it could not be turned by hand any-more, i then counted how many turn it took until it came off the threads, into my hands, it took roughly 5.5 turns for it to come off.
The Laser 'DOT'
When the focus ring is screwed all the way down, the dot from about 2 metres away is around 2 inches in diameter (Image 4). Between ~1/2 a turn and 4/5 of a turn, there is a smaller, little circle of read light separate from the main laser, i suspect this is a small scratch or something on the focusing lens (Image 5).

Burning Tests!
This laser will light matches almost instantly, cut electrical tape, burn skin, make plastic smoke and lots of other things too (yes, it will burn ants).
[Skip 2 minutes 55 seconds into the video to see the Burn Test]
Waterproof Tests!
The laser worked very well being submerged in water, after taking it out i dryed off the outside casing and checked inside for water, but non could be found!
[Skip 4 minutes into the video to see the Waterproof Test]
The Specs Of The Laser
Laser Power Output = 200mw
