A Guide To Buying Your First Green Laser

Could you perhaps recomend me a green laser pointer that ranges from 100mw-200mw but doesn't come over about $70 (or near that price is good)

i found this, has good feedback below. but that could just be the company doing them :X
Anyone had any experience with this company?
China Wholesale 200mw Laser Pointer Pen High Quality Green - Long Range 200mW Output (Free Shipping) | YoTang.com

Edit;
Found these two that look ok too, still not sure on the companies/their rep.

I could, but I need more info.

-What type of battery do you want to use, and can it be rechargeable? Stay away from AAA unless you're looking for a pen-style.
-Is the laser for burning? Does it have to be focusable?
-Does momentary or click switch matter, and does it have to have a safety key?

If you do want to use a rechargeable battery + charger, do you already have it? This would knock a few dollars off of the price.

Tenergy LiFePO4 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh Rechargeable-preferably one of those

-Is the laser for burning? mainly for the beam brightness but burning would be handy
Does it have to be focusable? if possible
-Does momentary or click switch matter, and does it have to have a safety key?
Doesn't need a safety key, and a click switch would be preferred

If you do want to use a rechargeable battery + charger, do you already have it? I have the charger + the above mentioned battery
This would knock a few dollars off of the price.

So RCR powered, focusable, and with a click switch. I think your best option is the Rayfoss waterproof torch, plus with these you've got the (obvious) plus of having a waterproof laser.

All the same thing, just different colors. If you contact Faona asking for the Paypal invoice for the laser without the battery & charger (IMO easiest way to pay), she should take about $5 off. So around $75 shipped, and RF backs up products for the first few months with their warranty.
 
Just curious I read that waterproof lasers aren't really worth it unless you plan on using it under water, doesn't it do something to the divergence of the beam?
Also I'm assuming the lasers from Rayfoss are up to spec because I don't have any method of measuring the strength of the laser.
Thanks for all the help/advice btw it's really useful, I think I'm turning into a laser addict lol :)

I haven't heard of that happening, but now that I think about it there was something about extra beam artifacts. The laser is really good for above-water use. Like I said, Faona is really helpful, and she might be able to send you a unit without the waterproof glass. Here's her E-mail: rayfoss.com@hotmail.com

Also, sorry I'm not sure if that laser is focusable or not. For some reason I was sure it was when I posted it, but I just saw that it didn't say anything about being focusable. You can ask her that too.

I ordered Via the website but haven't completed my order, gunna ask those questions.
I saw a few vids with the red versions of the laser being focusable, so i assumed these would be too.
Also my friend ordered the 200mw one @$130 for the laser $5 for shipping and on his and my paypal it says $150
He finished his order and the mail after from rayfoss says he paid $135
This kinda confuses/worries me lol

So it said $150, and it only ended up costing him 135? Lol this confuses me too. I've never used the website to pay so I can't offer any knowledge there.
 
but on the site it said the laser was $135
i found out that his paypal and his email after said he paid that much.
whereas my email and paypal says im paying $150
i mentioned wanting faster shipping in the request section below it, but the order confirm was an automated email reply so they couldn't have included that already (it was 1am in china at the time)
i'll just have to wait for their reply and see i guess
 
They look nice! I just did a site search, but only one thread came up which was unfortunately of no use. I would post this in the "Companies" section; you will get a greater response there. I've never even heard of the company before.

Well I asked them about this laser http://www.kelly-long.com/product_view.asp?id=1903 and they'd sell it to me for 230$.. I don't know if I should go for it..
 
Interesting that you would post this in the 532nm section... I would ask the blue experts in that section. But you can get a Dragonlasers 445nm Spartan for about the same price, so I'd get that instead.

Oh, sorry about that, I was linked to this thread and didn't see that I'm in the green lasers section.. However thanks a lot for the advice, it'll make my choice easier.. :))
 
No prob. I don't know a whole lot about blue lasers, but I do know that the Spartan is a really nice unit. And I wouldn't pay an untested company $230 in any case.
 
Bought the Rayfoss 300MW green earlier this month.
it arrived fast (DHL shipping), but wasn't able to use until batteries came with normal shipping.
Just thought i'd share this, don't go with fast shipping unless you have the batteries already :)
