Well, it's the standard newwish pen, might be or might not be.If someone actually tested it and it was up to spec, who knows.It's not really recomended buying from ebay.You might get lucky, but just don't be surprised if it's a POS. :p

well i believe you jsut got scammed.

the pictures are photoshopped. the test wasnt even real.
in the videos, that isnt even the same laser, you can clearly see it's a flashlight style laser being used in that video.
the price is too low to be real.
its not real. :-/

You just got scammed. The test is clearly fake and even shows a different style of laser. Wouldn't they use a real video if the test was real? If it isn't too late you should get a refund.

Oh....it's that lame gif you were calling a test? :-/ Sorry to hear that, and yeah, it's most likely it will never reach 100mW.You're lucky if it works at all.....

USD$20 though. That's not a huge loss. Even if nothing works, you'd get a nice case to turn into a DIY :)

The laser looks like a DX true wish. All the videos and tests are glimmering false advertising. It is likely you will receive a 5, 10, or maybe 20mW laser if you’re extremely lucky. The chance is more likely that it will produce less then 5mW IF it even works at all IMO. The shipping costs kills!! (isn't that where *they make most of the profit? At least for the inexpensive items?) A lot of time and effort was made to make this sell, so I doubt it is just someone trying to pawn off a broken unit. I would imagine that this person is either swapping labels, or removing them all together.

*They = Habitual scammer
