hello,
I recently made a bulk order for some 70mw green modules, and the seller was kind enough to add a 150mw pointer for free, though i checked and they sell it for about $18, but still im happy i got it. best of all, its strong enough to pop balloons at close range, and because of the bad divergeance (dot grows to 1m wide at 500m or so), my parents aprove of it, since it wouldnt be able to bring down a plane, though im not going to be irrisponsible with it.
obviously its a cheap one, when i press lightly on it, so the output is very weak, i get a red dot, which indicates no IR filters. this brings me onto my main concern.
the laser has varying outputs depending on how i am pressing the button, im not sure if this is intentional or not.
its advertised as a standard pointer, and nothing else, it looks like your typical cheap pen laser pointer.
i ask, is it normal for the laser to take a while to output at maximum power?
and is the need to get the pointer to work at full power by jostiling the button, intentionally built that way, or a flawed design? when the battery is full, i can adjust the output, but when it gets a bit lower, its just on or off.
im not complaining, i love this laser, but it would put my mind at ease if i knew exactly what was going on.
thanks
