I just want to throw out there, my AW 18650 3400mah Protected (Panasonic) battery seams to work just as well as my UltraFire 4000mah unprotected battery that came with my custom made 2w laser. The builder said they work great and tore off the protection himself. They even take the same amount of time to charge...

yeah you will be able to see dots on the wall or if you are burning something but you most likely will never see the beam with the glasses on. my 1.5W has a HUGE dot on the wall when taking a picture but when i use my glasses all i see is the small dot of the actual laser and none of the "flood" of light from hitting the wall that the camera picks up
No good company sells 532 laser without a good IR filter
Same goes for Rev Polarity Protection- put the battery in just once the wrong way and you now have your next host for a DIY build.
if you worry so much about customs seizure that why did you buy outside the USA?? duh? want a laser quick- buy from a member in USA- if you had posted a WTB in the BS&T section I would have replied about several I have FS... all JETLASERS- all best quality' all with warranty all good!!
all IR filtered too.
best wishes- hope your wait and savings will be worth all in the end.
it should say when he gave tracking number. first laser was tracked through USPS but my replacement is a shitty site that says my package is "not found". if it stays this way ill be contacting max soon. been a week and still not found?
