Ok I need major safety tips. I just fired off a 3 watt blue laser in sky without goggles to see beam and it it beautiful. I dare not look at its dot though without goggles. I did briefly look at my 200 mw red laser and 150 mw violets dot without goggles on my grass though. I currently have cheap goggles that make the beams and dots less visible but plan on upgrading. I definitely want some high quality lower power custom builds until I am comfortable and skilled with responsibility of using higher powers will probably get from lifetime17 here. I'm wanting to make sure I know the dos and don'ts with lasers of various powers. Any and all advice appreciated. One question I have is regarding appreciating the beam in the night sky without goggles especially the 3 watt blue laser. Is that safe?
Edit I know I messed up and posted in wrong area. Anyway I can delete and move to the laser safety forum rather than general?
