Help with next laser purchase from "itemquickship"

[tacomanmcjab]

Im in the market for a pen style laser from "itemquickship". They have 2 models that appeal to me. The 2011 Adjustable 2in1 Green Laser Pointer 85-105# Burn - eBay (item 110649912925 end time Mar-17-11 22:43:05 PDT) and Super Power #90-105 Green Laser Pointer Visible W/Box - eBay (item 120679490168 end time Apr-02-11 13:14:55 PDT) . I have about $50 dollars to kill and cannot decide between the two (other options are welcome). The more expensive one takes AA batteries which is a huge plus. But it comes with a strange push/pull focus system which seems quite gimmicky to me and I suspect low beam quality. On the other hand there is the newwish style laser which has been reviewed by another forum member. This laser was over spec and appeared to have great beam quality.

Any suggestions?

Does or has anyone had any experience with the AA host?

Havent had any experience but ive hears great overspec lasers from item quick ship, also the super beast green sometimes comes as overspec as 100mw,s and you cant ague about 100mw with quick shipping for 30 bucks with a great heatsink can you?

There is a review of the newwish style one here http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/iqs-itemquick-ship-laser-round-up-60193.html and it appears that is is nice in/over spec. But I feel if I purchase it I will regret it and wish I had gone with the superior host of the other.


EDIT: Ok I bought the cheaper AAA powered newwish style 100mw laser. I figured since its only $20 I could always go back and get the cooler host later.
