Well, I ended up getting this. Showed up yesterday morning. At first everything seemed fine, and I left positive feedback. I got maybe 15 minutes of use out of it (Not continuous, longest I had it on was two minutes) and it's dead. It was working fine when I turned it off, but the next time I turned it on I had a dim dot that quickly faded away to nothing, just a very faint flicker on the diode. I figured that the batteries Mitch sent with it probably didn't have a full charge, so I bought some more today, same thing.
Is my $700 laser toasted?
