some of you have probably seen my earlier review with just pictures, i didnt complete it because there was a problem with the laser. the problem was with the front piece of glass that sealed the laser. it was cracked on the outer edges.
well as soon as i noticed this i sent a PM to niko and he emailed steve.
the next day i got an email from steve telling me to send mine back and that he was already sending a new one out.
so heres the timeline
16th- placed order
19th- confirmation on order
21st- recieved first laser
22nd- sent laser back, steve sent out replacement
24th- recieved replacement
so overall my experience with wicked lasers and their customer service was by far the best i have ever dealt with. in a total of 8 days they managed to send me two different lasers!!!
im using the same pictures because the new one i recieved was exactly the same. it has the logo on the cap and the on off marked.
i measured the divergence to be roughly 1.25mrad which is what it should be
pros:
very sturdy
sexy
uses AAs (i like double AAs)
decent burning capabilities
...really sexy
waterproof design
at or above specifacations
very comfortable to hold
cons:
rather have a clicky on off switch
stolen from nikos review
Specifications:
Built with military grade aluminum
Dimensions: 179mm x 25mm (thanks bryce007)
Waterproof design (up to 20 meters deep)
Divergence: 1,2mRad (fixed focus)
Beam diameter at aperture: 1,5mm
100mW of 532nm
Powered by two AA batteries
Turn On-Off tail switch
conclusion
this is my favorite laser by far and i havent had a regret since i bought it...
but this is my only laser that costs more than a 100$
sorry for the sloppy review. i was in a hurry when writing this.
