hey guys im new here and tried to search around but it seems like everyone has graduated and moved on to better lasers than the ones im lookin at. i want a nice intro laser. im looking at

http://www.o-like.com/b2b_cpinfo.asp?id=1063

it says 50mw . i read the sticky in the green laser section and it says eye protection should be used for anything over 5mw

so if i buy that 50mw, and im jus messing around with it, nothing serious, and the beam just so happens to cross someones eyes, it could harm them? i dont want anything like that

if that is the case, what laser should i get for just recreational use

or am i fine to get that one

edit: will i need goggles for this laser too: http://o-like.com/b2b_cpinfo.asp?id=1068

you just anwer your question,enery laser above 5mW can ba dangerous.if you want cheap goggles that are working buy them from focalprice.com.i own this goggles and they're pretty good,the block almost all the light.
 
if you are "messing around" with lasers... you probably should stick with <5mW
