Hi I am new to this, I was looking on optotronics and found myself liking the RPL-165. I mostly want this laser to be able to burn tape, pop ballons, be visible in light and at night, at least 50 miles away. But I don't want to use glasses all the time
 





you are defffenatly going be able to burn with this laser and goggles are needed for burning always but for pointing at long range they arent needed. you could alo get one of the ppl lasers but they don't have rechargable batteries. the rpl165 deffenatly has over a 50 mile range. i to am interested on one of these rpl lasers they look great.
 
the problem is, i want something powerful and very portable that i coould put in my pocket

NovaLasers x125 is very portable and powerful.[/quote]

even the X105 i don't thank that the extra 20 mW is worth it (but I don't have any comparing)
 
The RPL-165 will be a great burner (not to mension it will be great to show off with at night), it is a smaller unit but you would have a lump in your pocket if you put it there. But you really are gonna need gogles no matter what for up close burning. I don't use goggles when I am pointing at far away objects but staring at the dot won't be good for your eyes.
 
But if theres an IR filter, can the light really damage your eyes that bad..i mean I want to show it off outside, I cant put on goggles. WOuld a 125mw be better than?

Hang on one second....

Why CAN'T you put on goggles ? If you can't - then I would not suggest getting anything above a 1mw red cat toy.

Hi Cukleti,
Well, you can't really carry the RPL around in your shirt pocket, but I carry them around easily all the time in my pants pocket. In fact, for some reason carrying one in your front pocket seems to attract the girls ;)

Just kidding about the girls, it's just that it's Friday night, the holiday weekend and I'm trying to be a joker.

It's begging to sound like it... ;D Enjoy the weekend Jack. :)
 
so wait, i can get a 165mW, and it will burn the kid who sits a few seats in front of me in school, on the back of the neck?
seriously, i want a laser that wont only be visibly powerful, but then when a smart ass says "ive seen brighter" i can say "give me ur hand" and burn them. so should i try to scrounge for the money for a RPL-300, or get an RPL200?

WTF?
Why bump this long dead thread? It wasn't even good in the first place.

I've had my RPL165 about a week ago, it really throws a sky beam and it is very high quality. You can see it in the review section.
You don't need glasses outside!
