Well, I made the plunge. Had some PTO I could cash out at work so I did just that and purchased an RPL-400 from Optotronics. Jack is incredibly nice. I forgot to mention I wanted the 30mw green laser pointer with my order and he just e-mailed and said he included on that just verified 54mw. I went with the Optotronics because of what I've read here, plus I liked being able to get an 18 month warranty instead of the typical 6 month warranty.

Anyway, I had it shipped overnight and should have it tomorrow. I'll post some pics and results once I get the battery charged.

Thanks, but I actually have 25+ Lasers in my collection.
 
25 lasers!?! :o Just imagine setting up all these together in a dark, dusty place. Freaking awesome! :P This thought makes me feel very warm and happy :).
 
The RPL-400 arrived. Average output is 426mw. The "30mw" pointer that was given free comes in at a whipping 52mw. Both are very well built and have authority in your hand. The RPL-400 is incredible. There isn't a balloon safe within 50 feet at my house. My lungs are getting a workout and my daughter enjoys helping as well. I'm quite amazed at how well this thing performs. The goggles are a must in any close quarters condition as this thing is very bright. I was skeptical at first getting this device, but I highly recommend it if you are looking for an amazing handheld device. I just purchased the "55mw" rated pointer from Optotronics as well. I'm hoping it comes in with an average of about 75mw.... I'll let you know.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH. That V1.5 Kenometer makes me cringe every time I see it. Zeroing pot right next to the sensor, uneven hole around the sensor. Blech. I learned a lot in building each one on how to do it better and you got one of the first compact units I made. My apologies!! :D
