I can only see how IR can harm other people (ex: someone standing right in front of you to the right of the beam when firing at like 5 ft away...)

Exactly.  Ir isn't that bad.  Buy the laser and have some fun.  Just remember to use common sense and you should be fine.[/quote]

YAAYY. I think this IR discussion is over now, lol.

Edit: I got 1 last question. If I am pointing at a building, like say, 20ft away, and I see someone walking down the street (to the right of the beam), they are fine right? Because the laser is shooting 20ft away, and they are standing like 20ft away from the beam.[/quote]
If they are 20 feet away from the beam they will be fine.[/quote]

k good, just wanted to ask that because I will be using this laser like 90% of the time outside doin random stuff lol
----> do street lights reflect? and is it illegal to shine into a car? yeah idk why I asked that, it probably is...

Street lights can reflect if your aren't careful. Just make sure you are 50+feet away to reduce the risk of reflections. Don't EVER shine it into an occupied car, helicopter or airplane. Doing so is a felony >:(
 
Ahhh.. And can 50mW lasers cut food?? Haha that'd be so awesome to cut my PB & J sandwhich with a perfect cut. Or can only 200mW+ do that.

No. Try a 50Watt laser for that.

Foods that hard to cut? Even a piece of bread?

Anything with a rough black surface like plastic or wood should smoke at that power up close, not enough to cut it though...

;D

Watch these vids. They show what my 500mw green does to paper. As you can imagine bread is a bit harder to burn through.
