I finally got my 30mW from DX. When I first push the button it is pretty bright but I can visually watch it fade. After it fades it is not that bright. Happen to anyone else. Lasers don't have a "burn in" do they?
I think that may be it. I have Rayavac in right now and it still fluctuates but is much better. I guess the ones supplied can't supply high demands for long periods of time.
Well, I put in the brand new batteries and it worked good for about 5 times (around 5 seconds each time) then it faded again. Does this thing really eat up batteries that much? Tons of people have this unit and I haven't heard of any problems like I am having. 2 sets of batteries and 1 minute of running time?
I also wanted to mention that I cannot feel any heat of the beam even with the new batteries and the beam is only impressive for <1 sec.
