X-75 or X-100?

[mmykle]

I sent back my X-15 to Novalasers because although it was fun, it was useless. So, whenever I get my rebate I am going to have to decide on what laser I should get with my $99 rebate. I am unsure weather or not I should get a X-75 or an X-100 :-/. I have the money for both, and don't care (that much) on the price difference. I know the X-75 can only burn matches with the collimator lens and the X-100 isn't supposed to be able to, but ive seen someone do it on the thread posted below. Is it a hit or miss on weather or not it can burn? If so, is it worth the extra money to try and get it? Any help would be appreciated, thanks. (On that thread below rizky says he talked to Magdalena about getting him a good one, would I have to ask too? I have talked to him before about returning it.)

Well if you get the x-100 you can expect a power of over 100mW, and with that , unless you have wet matches (or really crappy ones) they will light.
I would get the x-100 if I were you, or even a higher powered one.Never sacrifice power if you've got the money

I've yet to read someone say that they wish they had bought a less powerful laser!!!

IMHO...Buy all the power you can within your budget!

There have been some Off the Wall Powerful X-100's coming from Nova Lately!!!

You should indeed get a nice one if it comes from the same recent batch of X-series lasers!!
