Shipping 9.5/10 (Very good - Excellent)

I was pleasantly surprised that this laser took only 10 days to arrive from the day I bought it. It comes bubble wrapped in the usual white packing

Appearance 8/10 (Good)

I think aesthetically this laser is quite good. It looks like the younger brother of the new wish lasers.

Safety --/-- (N/A)

This is not one of those <1mW red keychain lasers which 10 year olds can buy from K-Mart. This is a dangerous laser that can cause life long eye injury and as such it should never be treated the way people treat those <1mW red keychains.

The laser is actually relatively safe with the diffraction head on though since the 30mW gets spread into about 50 different dots and as such I don't see a problem with bringing it to parties as long as the head stays on and you're not drunk enough to shine it on peoples faces and other such idiocy

Power and Burning 9/10 (Very good)

On full batteries it is certainly above 30mW and almost as bright as my 50mW green. It can pop balloons instantly!

Diffraction (Kaleidoscopic) Head 10/10 (Excellent)

This is awesome and "trippy"
Looks really nice in my room at night. Its a light show in your pocket

Stability 3/10 (Poor)
It isn't very stable. It is sporadic and mode hops and dims. Sometimes it only gives out IR (don't worry I pointed it into my cellphone camera to test not my eyeball like some retards have)

Sometimes adjusting the end makes it get brighter which suggest contact issues

IR Leakage 3/5 (Moderate leakage)

It leaks quite a bit of IR refer to video

Video --/-- (N/A)
Youtube

Overall 6/10 (Average)

The laser is overspec and more often than not a very powerful good laser. However its instability is indicative of bad build quality and I wouldn't be surprised if many of these are DOA. However since its only $9.80 shipped I would recommend them but have low expectations

Hey,

I think it's ok for you to post a link to the laser (minus any referral codes, affiliate codes, etc) in the review.
