Hello everyone,
I'm a complete beginner when it comes to lasers, so I thought this seemed like a good place to go for advice!
I work at a science education centre in the UK, and I'm looking to purchase a laser that can pop an appropriately-coloured balloon from about 20m away (but that won't pop a white balloon or one the same colour as the laser).
I would ideally like to receive the laser within 2 weeks (less would be even better!), but definitely within the month.
DragonLasers seemed to be well regarded in this forum's list of companies, so I wonder if the Spartan 200mW 532nm would be able to meet my needs:

Would it need some kind of focusing lens to be able to pop balloons from the distance I was mentioning?
If anyone has any other suggestions or retailers they could reccommend - I'd appreciate the advice!
