Ok, i recently got a Green laser pointer from a friend for Christmas. Now I know a Class IIIa is 1-5Mw and a Class IIIb is 5-500 Mw. From what I have seen, basically Class IIIa is less than 5mw.
My laser says wavelength (532nm green) and the power output says <5mw but under that it says Class IIIb product.
So I was looking around and really couldn't find out why. I am not sure, but i know class IIIa is ok and fine in public, but i read that Class IIIb could be illegal in public?
Basically, I am just trying to figure out what mine is considered.
Thanks to any one that help! (I hope i posted this in the correct section)
btw, If you guys/gals would like to see a picture of the warning or laser, I can post them this weekend if you would like/need to see them to make a judgment! ;D
EDIT: Apparently, the forum will not let me post links (and won't allow attachments) so i guess no pictures
My Profile on ImageShack is linkinpark9812 so you can go to that and see the pictures!
