Takes me less than 24 hours....from the time my plane takes off from HKG until I pass thru customs....with one laser and no batteries in my checked baggage and no problems. Heading back to Hong Kong again shortly. Tons of lasers on the street, never pay full price but can't always see them...

I think you're guessing on your previous statements. The above statement about stuff slips thru because every package is not opened has been true from decades, nothing new there. What we do know if yes people have had their packages confiscated. We all know that, that's a fact. Not sure if...

^I dunno, I think you might be giving them too much credit. A billion items from toys to tvs to flashlights to cellphones, doesn't make sense to keep batteries and power cords especially if that's not the primary cause for confiscation (documentation, labeling, licensing, etc). Something tells...

Maybe batteries that customs officials might not have handy. Common in the industry yes, buy them at walmart not quite yet.

what about lasers with take odd, non-standard batteries but don't ship with batteries in the same package? can customs "test" those?

i've never tried to carry on, i always check in....with my firearms. my rifles have a laser sight and this is one of them. batteries are in my carry on, never together with the laser and the "flashlights" i take with me.

A week ago, I finally got my first green from Rayfoss, it's similar ot yours except I went with the 200mW, Faona says: 1pcs RF532-200mW-FLX(IR lens added but power rating will be 170mW around)+ I love this laser. Got a chance to play with it in the wilderness down in Texas and it is...

Sorry to hear about your broken pair. I ordered two different pair and they sent me the exact same pair so I have two of these. If anyone really wants one, I can pack it well and ship it for $10 paypal to US48 residents only, brand new unworn. PM me.

:confused: I guess I'm asking if this is an "optional" feature and is there an extra charge for this? If you are going to do casual pointing, is an IR filter desirable?

I think I want to order from Rayfoss as well and hopefully I can get a small discount for being a forum member. After all, it would have been impossible for me to order from Rayfoss had it not been for this forum, that's a fact. I believe the way the ordering works, you place a order (there's...

Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) Got these exact pair of goggles today, took about 12 days from the far east to the west. Goggles comes in a clear bag in a white bubble package so there is some protection but not a lot. I suggest you order two (just in...

I like those, too...will be interested in your review. Curious why you chose the 150 instead of the 200 for just a few $ more. Is there not really a difference between the two?

If I were a company operating out of the Far East with sales all around the world, no way would I accept credit cards. Too much theft. Too much fraud. Way too much. This is not the forum to get into how thieves use credit card to steal millions of dollars in goods. So far, this kind of...

So I'm in the same boat, it's down to Rayfoss or Opto. I always think about O-like...but not today. My next laser is green (specifically the ones in the OP links) and I am interested in pointing only (not really burning), price is not a factor. So my question is (hopefully not hijacking this...
