First off....Yes, I am still alive.
Second....I am only writing this review because I am rather unhappy with this laser.
Third....I don't have that many pictures because...well I didn't take any besides the modual. I threw away the host.

Now for the Review part.

For starters...shipping and dealing with the company was pretty good. Overall quality of the laser was decent. Output was as stated on there site.

I kept the run times below their rated 60 seconds. This laser burned through about 2 sets of batteries or about 9 months of gentle use. It is now dead. I'm not sure what caused it, but it's true.

So then I tore it apart. Turns out, the laser module is from a company called...Sean & Stephen Corporation. (Laserss)

Now I don't know anything about this company, but I thought that I would throw that in for all of you.

Would I buy it again....NO. Even the cheapest of green lasers that I own have lasted longer and have taken more abuse.
