That's right, the RPL-200 outputs higher average power for a longer time period than most Spyder II lasers.
This statement is based on a sample of 8 Spyder II units bought by individuals (not review sites).
Two of these were bought anonymously for Optotronics, the other 6 were sent to us by WL Spyder II owners to verify output power.
The highest output power of all the Spyder II units we tested was 223mW and this level was not maintained for more than 60 seconds.
A new shipment of RPLs have just arrived in last week.
The RPL-200 lasers now in stock have average output levels of >240mW with many approaching the power of an RPL-260.
At a cost of $799 plus shipping, you can get two for the price of one Spyder II and both will out perform the Spyder. Only downside is they are not water-proof, but from what we're reading lately in the forums, the Spyder is not overly water-proof either.
Right now, the RPL-200 is the best "Bang for the buck" laser we offer, and is probably the best deal anywhere (true average output, with high beam quality).
Like the corny TV commercials say...
"But that's not all", act now and you get a free >5mW green pointer along with a 12 month extended warranty.
