If a laser beam from a RadioShack Green Laser Pointer (which is Class IIIA, maximum output below 5 mW) reflects off of a mirror and goes into someone's eyes, will it cause permanent eye damage? How bad would the damage be?

My 90 mW green laser pointer with a focusing lens finally came in today. I can't seem to light matches with it, even after adjusting the focusing lens to make the dot as small as possible. I shot the laser at the match head for 5 to 15 seconds up close. Nothing. How long does it take to light...

I know I started another topic requesting info for 30 mW for ~$100 but that doesn't seem realistic. Where can I buy an FDA approved 50 mW green laser pointer for under $200? I want something that can burn matches with a magnifying glass.

Hello, what is the minimum mW required for a green laser pointer to light matches with a magnifying glass?

I read on this website that a pot mod can be achieved simply by removing the button and turning the screw found underneath. Is this true? And what brands of 5 mW green laser pointers are designed like this? I know that the Radio Shack 5 mW green laser pointer doesn't have its screw near the...

Once I remove the top from a 5 mW green laser pointer, what is the best way to remove the diode without damaging it?

Where can I buy a 5 mW green laser with a top that unscrews, so I can take out the laser inside? And what is the safest way to remove the laser without damaging it? I've been searching everywhere and can't find one. If someone could please tell me where I can buy one it would be greatly...

On YouTube there is a video where someone modifies a 5 mW green laser into a 100 mW laser. Since I am not allowed to post the link, I'll just say that the title of the video is "HOW TO TURN A 5MW LASER INTO A 100MW LASER" The problem is, I don't know what brand this guy uses! I've searched all...
