    Lasers and proximity to an airport.

    I'm within 25 miles of a major airport and about 10 miles from a smaller regional airport. I'm currently using an app on my ipad called FlightRadar that shows planes in the sky relative to my position. I have checked it several times and sure enough I look up in the sky and see the blinking...

    Violet 405 vs Green 532 a newb's perspective

    I have read alot here in the great LPF community and took advice of many before jumping in. I was really impressed with the Optotronics 36mw 532 green I bought for my first laser. After more study my second laser was a Laserbtb 500mw 405nm Violet. I know I read everywhere, and I think I even...

    Looking for cheap ebay over spec 532

    Anyone have repeated good experiences with ebay sellers on cheap Green 532 lasers? I think I understand why everything is advertised at 5mw but my reading here on LPF says most are putting out quite a bit more mw. Obviously I would like to get the higher outputs but I'm sure it's hit or miss...

    Hello from Central Florida

    Reading alot and learning alot here in this great community. I've been a flashaholic for years and now moving over to some lasers. I've owned a couple in my lifetime and the first one many years back when the red was really expensive in a business presentation pen style. I had no idea about...

    Newby query

    Conair, I would consider also the mounting on a firearm. Recoil can be hard on electronics but others will have to weigh in on what works and what doesn't on firearms.

    Do you need to wear eye protection at all times

    You're flirting with disaster Jim. Technically yes you could look at the beam without causing permanent damage but four mirrors in a room creates ALOT of chances for reflection (BAD).
