Thats the DX 200mW, so normally it is blinding bright! but with those red shades from scope stuff, I can see the dot with very little discomfort, and the beam is invisible.. and normally the dot is a pin head size, but in that pic it is a couple inches, the same size dot as if it was 50 ft away! lol

and... btw... how does this look for a much diffused and dimmer dot, shot taken at about 6 ft away.

Those are just red lens goggles. I found an extremely good pair for cheap at scope stuff. I recieved it just a several days after ordering and was very surprised! I tested then by shining the laser through the glasses and seeing that the dot was not too bright, I know they won't be good enough...

Thanks, I just hope that it didn't get permanently damaged when the batteries shorted out and overheated. I think it must have reached around 200 F or 100C degrees cuz it burned me and expanded the battery tube, so now things jiggle around a bit :-/

Here is a pic of the beam in a dark room, while it is visible in daylight at certain angles, it doesn't show up in the camera with no tripod.

Hi there, I am a new member. I just recieved a Deal Extreme Laser, it was well worth the investment! I made some high quality goggles and got the rechargable e2 bateries. At first, the e2's overheated and may have caused some damage, but that's because the Deal Extreme spring for the batteries...
