Your going to have to be a little more specific with that question.............

 

[Droyd]

is it really blue and can u see beam

 

[photonaholic]

Looks like a "china direct" to me.... there are better deals out there.

 

[photonaholic]

Yes you clould see the beam in the dark.

it is violet not blue.if you want that effect of the star get it from focalprice for much less money.

Technical Details

• Star lens diffuses laser beam into several patterns as you twist it
• Lens can be removed for use as a regular laser pointer
• 10mW blue-violet GaN laser is visible in daylight, but especially bright in darkness

Apparently its not a Blue laser but a violet.
Ðx is much cheaper and o-like too.

It's not a true blue laser, just ask your self "Could I really get a blue laser for $84?"

And if you think, well it's too good to be true... It is.

It's in fact a violet laser (405nm) not a BLUE laser, and overly priced at that, also I would be very surprised if you could see the beam of a 10mW Violet laser but that depends on your eyes as not everyone see's it the same. I can barely see the beam of my 90mW one for example, day or night.

If you are interested in a violet laser, you can pick one up with a PHR or the newer 6X and a decent host+driver for under that price. (maybe not with a 6X)

Hope that answers your question a bit more clearly

I'll quote the amazon page,

"10mW blue-violet GaN laser is visible in daylight, but especially bright in darkness"

BLUE-VIOLET
