Hey guys,

new to the forum, but I have been reading alot about lasers. I got my little brother a 5mw for xmas and was impressed with the beam... So I ordered a 250mw from DL and am hoping for epic results.

You'll be impressed to say the least. Shine it around at outside night and you'll be blown away. Just be careful where you point it and make sure you get some goggles if you wanna burn stuff with it.

They won't give you proper protection.


I suggest you to not use the lasers in close area, until you have proper eye wear.

This power level is dangerous, unless pointing up in the air.

My eyes feel like there is sand in them after about 15 minutes of playing around with my greenie indoors (and that is with good wrap-around goggles)
Have fun but also have respect for the lasers.

DL has good goggles (for average power lasers) quite cheap. You could take the chance to buy them with a single package :)

Plan on about a month to arrive from any China based Co.
Most do not get in a hurry to ship. Once tracking says it has arrived in the USA ,it will sit in the NY post office (customs) for days, also.:yabbmad:
