Can anyone recommend me a good <1mW red laser?

(@ LaySir, re: ThinkGeek); I'd GUESS that it is less than 5mw. It is marked as <5mw. The red spot is *relatively/somewhat* weak compared to most "garden variety" red pointers that I have seen. The beam can't be seen at all unless I pass it through particulates (steam from boiling water, hot water from a bathtub, etc).

The required batteries make it "unusual", but it isn't so bad. Battery life seems to be good (low current draw probably).

Would be an excellent cat toy.

buy the atlasnova. if you can't tolerate rattling, put a paper inside.
you can safely take the 5mW
