I recently got a $5 laser at a garage sale. When I saw size of it and heard that it was "industrial" I instantly imagined cutting metals, etc. :drool: Only after I brought it home I realized that it's just 5mW. It'a a Siemens (made in Germany) and has power supply with a key and works perfectly as far as I can tell. It's class IIIb (but I think that's old standard). Is it any more powerful than a $3 keychain laser with same 5mW rating? Can it's power be increased or is it pretty much worthless piece of antique tech?
