What Type of Batteries Does it run On?:
1471.gif


18650 Or CR123A



How Well do they Fit?

The 18650 fits Perfectly, It wont Rattle. Now the CR123A I have all Rattle Around, (But I'm never going to use them in this unit :p)



Whats the Recommended Duty Cycle?

60 Seconds On and 60 Seconds Off to Cool.



How Long can it last on a full Charge? Minus the off time on duty cycles of course.

2-3 hours before I feel it should get charged back Up.

Nope the no spin is a nice meter! I love mine! And that was one hell of a laser for $75 shipped! It was my very first over 1mW laser, and it was a very good unit. Just can't wait to get my jet lasers pl-c!

Oh yeah, I have the 100mW safety label somewhere. It may even be safe to say it could possibly still be in the green pointer box your yob 445 came in under the foam still. That's how they shipped it to "fool" customs haha. Put a 5mW label on it and put the real one under the foam

Awesome review. I have the 200mW version of the laser from o-like, though I'm holding off on reviews until I get my LPM (damn holidays!).

I can probably find the answer via search, but I'm feeling lazy:p how did you get the pictures in the post like that?
