Hello,
I know that there was just another review on the same laser.
But I decided to post my review anyways because I think that you can never have enough reviews.
First the shipping:
The shipping took a long time. This is not really O-like's fault though. China customs held a bunch of orders for a few days, and I guess the Iceland volcano delayed a bunch of shipments. Overall it took about a month from my order date.
The Package:
The packaged arrived in great condition. The label on the box entitled "Sun Glasses as Gift". Which is good so that it doesn't get caught by customs.
The box was well padded and the laser came inside of a nice little case for storage and what not.
Performance:
I don't have a LPM but this thing seems like it is up to par. It burns just about anything that isn't light colored. And even a few light colored things. It lights matches, cuts electrical tape, engraves certain woods, and lights firework fuses in an instant.
The Focus is pretty nice. It focuses fairly easy. The only con that I have with it is that it started squeaking (just needs some lube). That gets a little annoying while your focusing though.
The Waterproof works great. I submerged it inside of a bowl of water for a good 15 minutes. It focuses fine under the water. When I took it out of the water I removed the battery to check to see if any water slipped through and it was bone dry.
As far as the Beam goes. It is a lot better than I thought it would be (but it is no green laser). I was under the assumption that I would not see the beam at all with a red laser of this power. To my surprise, you can see the beam quite well. You cant see the beam indoors. You can however see the beam pretty good at night. One thing that I noticed is, if it isn't humid or muggy out, you can only see the beam if you are looking down the laser (like a gun sight).
But on humid and muggy nights the beam is clearly visible from just about any angle. Tonight it was very muggy here, lots of water moisture in the air. It left for some pretty cool beam shots.
Overall it is a very good buy for $53. The only thing that you might have to worry about is the shipping. Or maybe it was just me being to excited and impatient.

And Here are the pics....
First some close-ups of the laser itself:
A size Comparison with my other lasers:
As you can see, it is a pretty decent size. Not to long, and pretty slim compared to my other two lasers.
And for the Beam Shots....
These first three beam shots were taken outside with no smoke or anything. Just a good muggy night.
The next three beam shots were taken in doors with some fog from my fog machine.

Thanks for reading my review :yh:
