Dangers of 200mw

[MiV]

Hi!
i might sound like a dummy and probably there is a thread like this already writte.
I'm just wondering if it's dangerous to put your hand infront of a 200mw green laser pointer?

No nothing wrong with that but if you won't move your hand it's going to hurt after a while still no danger

Depends on how the laser is focused... at most you'll burn your skin a bit. Not exactly healthy... but no great danger.

Staring at the dot won't do your eyes much good either.

Please let us know how long you could keep your hand in the beam :crackup:

You might want to strike up a relationship whith Matt Ohrenberg (forgive spelling Mo), I understand he is a qualified and practicing EMT.

Screw that. If he wants he can see what it's like sticking his hand in front of my 40W Co2. It shouldn't hurt to bad :eg: :eg: :eg: :eg: :eg:
