well WELL ! so i bought a laser from ALIEXPRESS ! YES I DID ! Free Shipping 301 100 200mW 405nm Adjust Focus Violet Laser Flashlight with 2 Switch and Lock (2CR123A)-in Laser Pointers from Office & School Supplies on Aliexpress.com

well just like any other non trust able Chinese online store :scowl: i received a bad laser :cryyy: not a non working piece of crap, but still its not that well build >_<" hopefully i got the laser in a nice little white green laser box :) with the charger,the keys and the safety strap (: (no batteries due o new Chinese customs laws) ANYWAY HERES WHAT HAPPENED: the laser was not working ! the button was broken!! i was able to push the button and hear the click but the laser was not working ( used new batteries! ) what was the problem.... well ...the spring that returns the button from the module( not sure if thats the right definition ) was not springing back enough for me to push it again and make that laser work, making it impossible to turn ON the laser. At the end i managed to make it work but i had to struggle to not break module from the diode. ONE THING IS THAT THE COMMUNICATION IS REALLY GOOD AND THEIR SERVICE TOO ! somehow i got a bad product, it could happen to anyone. The good part is that the laser is able to burn things like paper pretty fast, light matches,cut electrical tape, burn rubber,almost anything, i even was able to smoke black metal !!! WEIRD BUT TRUST ME ! I DID ... also you can really see the beam at night...i would say good enough to battle with my greene ( 100mW). The focusing ring is pretty smooth,the laser host and tail cap is made out of metal, the keys work pretty good and they look sick ^_^ ,
the strap ......well...its just a strap ^____^ . the laser will not drain up the batteries in one hour, it actually depends on own you use it , to much use low battery life, not much use = "long battery life" anyway ! i hope you like this review ! please comment and if i HAVE TO IMPROVE SOMETHING PLEASE LET ME KNOW !!! THANKS !!!!!
HERE ARE SOME PICS (: THERE ARE VIDEOS AT THE END !

BASICALLY HERES THE PROBLEM...SEE THAT WHITE BUTTON...WASNT WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE THE STANDARD BUTTON THAT YOU PUSH WAS NOT LONG ENOUGH TO REACH THE WHITE ONE AND BLA LA BLA !

HERE ARE THE REPLACEMENTS FOR THE STANDARD BUTTON, THESE ARE NOT ACTUAL BUTTONS THEY ARE JUST SIMPLY 2 PIECES OF ANTENNA TUBE HOLDERS FOR RC CARS ^_^ ( I HAD TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING ^_________^) THE SMALLER ONE FITS JUST RIGHT TO MAKE IT A PUSH ON RELEASE OFF BUTTON, THE BIGGER ONE ITS A BIT FATTY SO IF I NEED A MOMENTARY BUTTON I JUST REMOVE THE SMALLER ONE AND STALL THE BIGGER ONE ! LOL :D:D:eg:

I'm not sure if that was a negative review or glowing recommendation. :) J/K good for you makeing a bad situation ok all with a positive attitude. Congrats on the 405nm
But when I look on AliExpress I always think "you get what you pay for".

ITS LEANING MORE IN THE POSITIVE SIDE ( not MARKETING !!! SO IM NOT TRYING TO SELL IT !! ) JUST MAKE YOUR OWN DECISION IF YOU WANT TO BUY ONE ( IN GENERAL ) :san::D
YEP THATS TRUE ! YOU GET WHAT YO PAY FOR (: :wave:

Thats a very nice laser if it burns metal, seriously though.. metal doesnt burn, but i am pretty sure it was the paint layer or some kind of organic residual compounds on the surface of the metal..

Yea the metal is covered with some kind of black paint, but still it's metal :D :shhh:
 
Cool review! How much time does it need with matches? What is the color of the matches?

as soon as you put the matches in the focus point !! its really fast ! :drool:
doesnt matter at all of wat color are the matched with this laser ...it just burns them...NOTE: if you paint black or color the black the tip of the match ...it will be easier for burning.:p
