Re: Best mw for the buck?
Also not open to Sanwu lasers because it costs 18$ for a 303 design laser but only 100mw plus I have to add on batteries which comes out to 40$ for only 100mw.
Thanks I will check out sanwu now! I just assumed it was glass because it had properties of glass and looked for like glass an acrylic don’t know for sure though. :)
Should I not continue to use my laser until I get safety goggles? Also many websites say if your careful you don’t need safety glasses for 40 mw and below? Could there be any permanent damage to my eyes already done? Kinda got me worried :/

I just joined the laser pointer forums website and the community seems awesome and very knowledgeable! I have just been getting into the lasers hobby and have been scammed on my first laser by BurningLaserPointers, apparently it is pretty common for false advertising of lasers! I am hoping to...
Thanks NexGen I have contacted the company I bought it from and am asking them why they advertised it as 200mw when it is really 40-80mw. Can you recommend any EBay sellers that advertise truthfully/ are the green/blue 1 watt lasers listened on eBay for 30$ really 1 wat?
So I purchased the laser off of this website

But upon receiving it I began to question wether it really was a 200mw because it appears to be just a cheap Laser 303 I could buy off eBay for 7-8$. I...
