    Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Heavy) *Updated with IR filters*

    My replacement from FP arrived - broken again :mad: It's better than last time, though. Guess anyone ordering glasses from FP shouldn't assume they'll arrive in one piece :thinking: I compared them to the other pair - seem exactly the same (somewhat bright green through 1 layer, dim orange...

    Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Heavy) *Updated with IR filters*

    Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) So when you wear glasses, what do you see? A semi-bright / bright green dot (albeit without a halo)? Or a dim white/orange dot, and when laser is pointed through glasses - IR only? From different reviews, I expected not to...

    Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Heavy) *Updated with IR filters*

    Re: Another review of the cheap focalprice goggles! (LPM Image Heavy) My goggles arrived yesterday - broken in the middle :mad: But judging by my pair it's ultimately a design/manufacturing fault. The goggles consist of a frame made of soft plastic & a single piece of harder laser-protection...

    Laserlands green 30mW Disco Laser - Extensive Review

    I got this laser (30mw) + 4 different star caps yesterday from rayfoss. Since it's my first green laser, I was quite disappointed, it looked only a little brighter than my old red pointer (the toy ones, probably less than 5 mw). I thought that I either got a really underpowered one, or green...

    First green laser advice

    These would be several times more expensive than FP (glasses+shipping), and OD4 sounds like an overkill for 30mw, I want to see the dot...

    First green laser advice

    Thanks to everybody for help. I settled on the 30mw 3in1 disco laser from rayfoss. Talked to Faona over e-mail in the last few days - indeed a very nice person. That's great customer service, unlike those mass sale sites... She said that the laser should have worse heat dissipation when...

    First green laser advice

    Well, why get something that is too bright to look at? That's one more reason to settle with <=30mw. Though I didn't consider staring at the dot as dangerous, I was more worried about all the reflective surfaces at home - at 5mw an accident is quite unlikely to cause permanent damage, at 30mw...

    First green laser advice

    Thanks for the input, and yeah, safety definitely comes first. That's also the reason I don't want a 50mw - both suggested models look great, but are hardly safe indoors (seeing that people got blind spots from as low as 20mw, and the 50mw might be overspec). I'd like to be able to enjoy the...

    First green laser advice

    Hi all! I wanted to get a green laser ever since I stumbled upon some pointers on DX (thought greens cost hundreds of $$$ before...). Kudos for them for putting a decent amount of warnings about power and IR, otherwise I might've ended waving around a 100+mw greenie without goggles... After...
