In the Wickedlasers contact section I wrote them something. I put it as a critical priority. If they reply, I'll post it here. Here's the message:

You made a mistake. The Spyder 2 GX is far from the most handheld lasers. Laserglow's Hercules 500 is. The Spyder 2 GX can't even instanly pop a ballon, so it is more like 40mW. Stop lieing. How do you live with yourself? Lieing to customers and sending them underpowered units! Any customer should stick with Optotronics/Laserglow/Novalasers if they want top notch quality lasers.

The reply:

Can you please provide your original order Id of your purchase? I will need to
look up your purchase order. Is your Spyder II GX underpowered? Our Spyder II GX
is a 200-300mW green laser. If your laser is having manufacture's defect and
your laser is still under warranty, I might be able to assist.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't they even tell some of the minor employees that they sell underpowered lasers. They ignored the fact about the Spyder not being the most powerful handheld.

Even though I have heard nothing good about wickedlasers :-/but for being wicked lasers, that sounds like decent service... If I was the person replying I'd probably say the same thing....

Yeah, that was kind of mean. Their employees don't know; they're just trying to do the best job they can.

Now, LC rampaging is a totally different story...

I've never herd anything bad about WL in all my 8 months at LC. Do you know why? The communists at "555 Fahuazhen Road, Building C, Floor 14-15 Shanghai 200052, China" own those forums. ::)

We all like to make fun of WL, but with this really necessary?

1) Most Powerful
"Powerful" is a marketing term, much like gourmet. It all depends on how they define "powerful". They are not misleading anyone, just as the $1 pack of gourmet hot dogs I just bought is not misleading me.

2) Pop balloon
You know, we all watch that video and laugh. But honestly. We can all plainly see that the chic isn't even close to focused. And the moment she moves the laser close in, it focuses and instant pop. While we can joke about it being underpowered, we also need to be honest about what we actually saw.

WL sells a product and they market much better then any other laser manufacturer. This is why people buy from them. WL is the Bose of the laser world. Everyone loves Bose and thinks they're the best. I'm sure most members on this board would tell you to buy Bose if you have the money. But go on a A/V forum, any A/V forum, and tell them you are buying Bose. You will get laughed off of the forum.

It's all a matter of persepctive, and sending these emails to WL is childish and immature.

what do you mean by focused? :-? the spyder 2 is a fixed focus laser, all of my greens are fixed focus and they can pop pink balloons pretty much instantly at <10ft and a few seconds for further ::) and they were all rated under 150mW ;D ;D

WOW !  WAY TO GO !  You are my HERO ! {steps around small puddle of puke}

NOT that you are going to listen to this, but what the heck....

If you are going to TRY to seem intelligent, or to TRY to make a point - SPELL CHECK and check your syntax.  All you accomplish is this: someone working for whatever company you are TRYING to slam, laughs at your stupidity.  Just like me, and anyone else with more than one neuron firing is right now.  Grow up, "man".  I'm suprised you had the guts to actually use your own email address for your little love note to them  ::) Go ahead and start your little third grade attitude, and flame away - I'll simply skip over your worthless posts.
