I'm looking for a laser I can take in my backpack for hiking or backpacking trips. I'm making a safety kit and I'd like a VERY powerful laser to be part of it. It'd be cool if it was waterproof too. The idea is that if I ever get injured or stranded I can point it in the night sky and be seen from far away, or flag down a group of people on the mountains, point out far away objects, etc. I'd like a very strong beam to be visible even in daylight if possible. Is green the way to go?
Having a strong burning capability would be really nice as well.
I'm 28 years old and well aware of the safety issues, definitely plan on getting safety glasses as well. This will be used mainly outdoors. Will also be aware of planes, cars, etc.
My budget is probably $150.. is this doable on this budget? If I spend a little more do I get a lot more power?
My Surefire EB2 flashlight already takes CR123 batteries, so if possible I'd like to use the same type since I'll already have that light with me. If this limits my power I'd move to the superior battery.
Thanks,
Ryan
