~130mW at present - There's no blue at all in mine... pure violet (except on fluorescent surfaces). However the central dot does look like a very bright "pastel" violet with a deep purple "halo". In the dark the color looks more deep and rich than anything I've ever seen.
Weird stuff about the beam: Very occasionally, in a brightly lit room I've been surprised to see the beam out of the corner of my eye, but only when I wasn't thinking about it... the first time was when I first got the laser and was incrementally adjusting the output (was <100mW at the time).
The laser was on and pointed at the ceiling at a 90 degree angle to my line of sight, at the far right of my peripheral vision. I was talking to my wife when suddenly I was aware that I very clearly saw the deep purple beam as if illuminated by light fog, but the beam looked wide. I was so shocked I stopped what I was saying and turned to look, surprised that I could no longer see the beam.
I asked my wife if she saw the beam and she thought she had seen it too.
Even stranger, I've tried over and over to see the beam with my peripheral vision but I can't reproduce it when I'm trying. If I ever see it out of the corner of my eye it has to be when I'm not trying to. Like it's only visible by my subconscious. Kinda creepy... :thinking:
