Hi everyone!
This is my first post on this forum, although i've been researching here previously to decide on what to buy for my first laser (other than a simple red 5mW)
Here's what i got!

I wanted a focusable laser with a highly visible beam in darkness, for optics experiments, as well as a reasonable burning ability, if only for fun!
I ordered this unit
www.rayfoss.com
as it offered everything i was looking for at a reasonable price.

The laser arrived in a (well wrapped and cushioned) box about 8 days after i payed by paypal, the battery and charger, however, took and additional 12 or so days to arrive, irritating!
As soon as the battery arrived, already charged! :D I began with my experimenting!
The laser itself feels well built, with a hefty aluminium case, solid focusing head and sturdy keylocking tail cap, the only con of the laser's construction i have found is the button, which after a day's use on and off, lost the 'click' in it's operation, now it feels less solid, but is still perfectly usable.
Now for the fun part :)

The beam itslef is very tight when focused at infinity, andis highly visible in anything other than bright sunlight, and is incredibly impressive at night, appearing as a "solid pillar of light" as one of my witnesses put it!

As for burning, the matches can be lit at 50cm in a matter of seconds, the beam will easily cut a pin sized hole through dark plastic bags almost instantly, and i have caused black coloured card to smoke and smoulder without any trouble.

In conclusion, this is a great laser for the price, solid, tactile and with a precise and powerful beam, and it sure is fun!
