800mw 445+Fireworks Show

[kevinmassey]

I have to say I love the 4th even more now that I have lasers to entertain with. One year ago I'd barely even heard of a green laser. The only site I'd seen was WL lol. This year was amazing. I've never seen such awesome beams in my whole life! I used a lighter less than 10 times! Across the canal people on a dock were shooting mortar shells, and I could completly light the smoke clouds up with a 200mw red. Then to top it off during my towns fireworks show I pointed my 800mw 445 at a cloud of smoke, and the whole cloud turned bright purple-blue! This was from atleast a half mile away! After I did this a couple times I got a text from my sister saying "WTF is that your laser?" lmao! That made my day. She was over 3 miles away from me! I called her after the show and asked her about it. She said all the kids around her were asking what the purple light was, and their parents replied "Some sort of laser". As if that wasn't enough to make this an epic 4th towards the end of the show when I was pointing it at puffs of smoke again a low powered green started following my laser . lol Needless to say my girlfriends parents were very impressed with my lasers. Before people start to think I was being irresponsible. I did NOT light fireworks at all with people around me, and I was extremely careful when pointing in the sky. I also don't let anyone else touch my lasers. That really pisses my girlfriend off lol.
Feel free to share your 4th of July experiences here!

lol-this 4th was pretty lame, all my friends were gone but I got my "50mW" pen working again and lit up some smoke across the highway with my 445. Unfortunately the casio lens won't focus very well... I shot some mortar shells, one went about 10 feet then blew up all over my yard The 4th before this was fun, I used the same greenie before it was dead and everyone liked it a lot-that was a fun year!

I impressed some 8-10 year olds with my 5mW Greenie. They had never seen a lasers actual beam before. With all the smoke in the air it was very visible.
