WOO HOO - a real "Let Out Your Agression" topic... Grix, I concur heartily that the USPS is terrible with Parcel Post and/or First Class mail (although I really have never had an issue with Priority though...) - what makes it all the worse though is the fact that there really is no competition price-wise for smaller packages.
ALLRIGHTY NOW - onto 2 major piss-offs, one of which I'm about to become guilty of ...
The "Search" feature, and it's lack of use. Like as in "Geez, Brew, if you'd have searched the thread you'll probably find this has been brought up before" ....
And more importantly, "Reviews" with power claims, estimates, etc from members that have never SEEN, let alone OWNED, a calibrated LPM. Anyone with the tiniest bit of multiple-laser experience knows that a 50mW green with shit divergence, bad beam, etc can look every bit as bright (or even moreso) than a sweet 125mW with excellent characteristics and quality construction.
Unless you own an LPM and are ready to post confirmed power outputs, please refrain from using the following terms: Overspec. Underspec. Overpowered. Underpowered. ANYTHING number-wise followed by "mW". And then the world will be a little better place IMHO.
