I've read posts that say looking at the beam of a laser outside isn't bad without goggles, it's the dot you have to worry about. With the higher powered lasers, like those over 1W, I wonder about that. I can see the beam because it's reflecting off of particals in the air. Is there a point where the laser is putting out enough power to make even those tiny reflections dangerous to look at without goggles?
I was playing with my Lazerer 445 LZSK 1W the other night. It's pumping out around 1100mw. The beam looks amazing, especially on humid or dusty nights. While pointing it into the sky on a cooler evening, the beam caught my breath, and I was caught off guard by how bright it was. That's what got me seriously wondering.
How about waving it around in the smoke above a fire? I haven't done it, and won't until I get more feedback about it. Any thoughts?
