Hi All,
I'm a noob to the hobby of lasers and just got my second laser. It's supposedly a 200mW green, but I got it off of Gadget Town. Compared to my 50mW pen it def seems more powerful. It'll cut black tape from a few feet away (albeit slowly) and pop balloons from several feet away too, but I doubt it's really 200mW.
More to my point, I was wondering if there are any members in the Denver area that have a LPM that I could use to measure the power of this laser? I can't afford to get my own meter and it would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I'll come to you, at your leisure....
Thanks in advance!
P.S. The laser I got, I do believe was a killer deal at only $48!! It's seems to be a tough build and has some power. Correct me if I'm wrong... Is a weak "burning" laser a good deal for $48? Seems like it.
