I'm not complaining or anything, i'm rather fascinated with my "little" laser. I love seeing this beautiful green beam. <3 But i remember seeing topics in which people asked for pictures so i thought to myself "i shall provide". Well, have a great Christmas everyone! :D

A friend suggested that they may have send me the 50mw version by accident. The light is a little dim today, so i took another picture with my webcam. It's also slightly dusty here.

Within 10 years it's the second time that i've heard about that, i'd call that fairly un-common, but maybe it's a local thing, and i don't really have much to do with Dobsonians either. Well, i still don't see the big up-side, but i guess it's fine if it works for you. I'll stick with my...

This is not that common, and you should know that. Most people use a finder-scope or a red-dot thingy (or both) for finding their objects. Personally i don't see why you would use the laser that way, i find it somewhat silly. Well, i find it hardly sporting to talk down to people like that...

It's fine actually, i mainly mean to point out constellations and "landmark" objects like (for example) the Orion Nebula and the Pleiades, to educate my girlfriend. It's perfectly fine for what it's supposed to do, and while looking at the dot would most likely mess up your adjustment to the...

Interesting. Well, i'm always careful, that thing lights up my small room pretty good. 99% of the time it will be pointing at the stars anyways. :)

I've promised i post once it's here, so here i am. :) I've ordered he described item at 12th of November, and it took about 3 weeks to arrive in Germany from China, which i find reasonable. I uploaded a few pictures for you guys. Ir arrived in this little neat gift box, which is very nice...

Oh? That was a troll? Ha! Oh! Sorry, my bad! How stupid of me for not seeing that. Please move along, good sir, while i facepalm for an unspecified amount of time and palm.

Actually, while your ISP assigns you a random IP address, that's NOT to keep you anonymous and out of authorities reach, and your ISP also knows who had what IP when, and they are giving that information to the authorities if you are suspected to have committed an offense or crime, there is much...

On the off chance that you actually want to look at wildlife/airplains/trains etc and not your neighbor... or worse: No matter if spotting scope or Telescope - you are looking at 500$ + for a quality product, though a scope will be a lot more compact and portable, and with a telescope everything...

Well, who ever wants to break into our home doesn't even have to bring his own flashlight thanks to that streetlight. In all seriousness though: When i turn it off then i'm most likely not far away, though i doubt anything would happen, considering nothing has in the last 1/4 century, and we...

Cool, thanks! That would actually be very useful. I live in a dead-end street with 6 houses, nobody is out at night, but that one streetlight keeps polluting the night sky, would be nice though if it could stay off longer. Maybe once i found the sensor i could rig a light to it, which i could...

Careful with that. You may remember videos of people running against glass doors, making them shatter, this can very dangerous, but i'm all in favor of a good non-destructive prank. :na: I've seen someone shut off a street lantern with a laser, which would actually be mighty useful. How is that...

There isn't really anything appropriate to say in such a situation, eh?! I hope you get well soon, and i wish you the strength to cope with it, i'm very sorry for your loss, mate.

I did search the forum before buying, and some actually bought from them and it seemed satisfying. http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/meritline-5mw-green-pointer-37924.html Another person in another topic warned that they may take over a month to ship, but i had a friend in china and non of my...
