i need help in purchasing a new laser

[palmer]

its been months since i even thought about picking up a laser, much less buying one. and having that said, i havent kept up with there reviews either. ive been looking at o-like and rayfoss, and have my eye on a few. they are:
Cute High power 300mW red laser torch/focusable [OL-CR-250] - $59.99 : Welcome to O-Like.com, Your source for laser products
New Style waterproof red laser 200mW /adjustable [OLNWRL200] - $55.99 : Welcome to O-Like.com, Your source for laser products
and
www.rayfoss.com


if anyone could help me on the one with the best reviews because ive looked and cant find them, i would be very greateful

Look at the link in my signature.

I would say o-like cute.

ok would it be possible to make the cute laser waterproof? because my friend likes to dive and she wanted to know if the waterproof one worked. i personally want the waterproof one but i also like the one with more power

palmer you are at the wrong forum apparently! You need to be over at tinker-toys.com.

Stop double posting!!

im going with the o-like waterproof one because it has the bigger battery and just seems better

 

[palmer]

does anyone know of a laser of similar qualities either?

I just took apart the host that "cute" O-Like laser uses. (same host, not from O-Like, and different color, but same host for sure)

You could very likely take a circular piece of glass, and epoxy it between the diode and the lens. It's hard to understand what I mean, so take a look:

The lens slips down into that cylinder. I'm pretty sure everything else about this host (battery compartment, switch, etc) is waterproof already (at least within reason)

Dude check out my reviews. The links are in my signature. I have a review of the cute red and the blu-ray laser is in the same new style host that the 200mW red is in.
