HELP! - Buying a 200MW laser pointer from LAZARER - UK

[Dr Shinigami]

Hi,

I'm situated in London, and as you all know - the safety regulations here states that laser pointers must be 1mw or below. (Not sure if it's 1mw or 5mw).

Anyway, I wanted to purchase this:

LZMN - Mini 650nm 200mW Focusable Red Laser Pointer

Along with the power certificate and charger+batteries.


I've heard good things about Lazerer from these threads, can anyone please confirm if they're good or not?

Also, the main problem is that I am in the UK. Would it be able to get through customs? Can Lazerer disguise it as a 1mw laser to get it through customs? Or do they clearly write "200mw Mini-red Laser pointer"?

Also, what would happen if it does get seized at customs? Will it be chased up leading to me? Or does it just end with them confiscating it and that's it?

Dont worry. Always writes '' flashlight, waterproof flashlight etc. ''

Interesting that's the second time you have posted and the second time you have quoted UK regulations and asked ways and methods that are used to avoid customs seizures. I find it very strange especially seeing as your question had been answered, although probably not specifically enough for you, in your last thread...:tsk:

Dont worry it will be fine, they will write flashlight etc ... They are a good company for a reason. Good luck
