I would suggest that you use the [Search] button and do a
search on the Forum for "laserpointerpro" and see what falls
out of the tree...:whistle:

None of them.

Go for O-Like, or Lazerer.

^yep these companies have a pretty good rep around here when it comes to delivering up to spec lasers on the relative cheap.
You might want to consider getting a cheap 405 on Amazon for ~ $10.00 first to see if you even like the color in person
(assuming you don't have one already). In my experience all of the cheap 405 pointers I've picked up
on Amazon were around 20-50 mW in power.

You might also like Rayfoss..

Make sure you have good safety goggles. Anything over 5mw can permanently blind you. :(
