Hello everyone. I am new to the laser hobby, although I did get a couple red pointers when they were first coming out in the late 90's. Recently I found a deal on Yugster (!) that I couldn't pass up - a 30 mW blue pen for $11. At that price, who can resist?
This kind of thing is called a "gateway drug".
Yesterday I found on Rayfoss (which I never heard of, had it not been for this forum - thanks!) a "200mW" red pen for $21.50 incl. s&h. Again, how can I resist at that price? If it is only comes in at even 75mW, it's still a bargain. However, I expect I won't stop there, and I may even try my hand at building.
