    budgetgadgets laser

    My honest opinion. Neither of those you have listed are worth any attention. The cheapest tailclick focus one is the 200mW red one I've already listed for around $40. If you go cheaper than that. It won't be up to spec and it will not do anything you want it to. Basically within my experience...

    budgetgadgets laser

    Seriously 50mW o-like is far more stable. Takes AAAs too which is nice, doesn't cost too much more either. I don't understand why you'd shy away from a reputable company because their prices are slightly above average. There is a reason for this. You get what you pay for, especially with laser...

    budgetgadgets laser

    BudgetGadgets Green lasers are not reliable with power output. You could buy something that says 200mW and it's actually outputting 80mW. In which case you're getting ripped off. If you want a burning laser, the $40 budgetgadgets 200mW red one is the only option. If you want a green one for the...

    Need advice on 532nm laser purchase.

    I'll get it when I've recovered from the 400mW o-like. That purchase just hit my bank account harder than I really wanted it to haha. Could you send a link of the best place to get one? You seem like you know what you're talking about and last time I searched for stuff it took me 30 mins to find...

    Review -- O-like OL 532-350 (<400 mW)

    It took me about 30 mins to find this review with an actual beamshot. I'm buying this laser right now. Screw funds lol... That beamshot is worth it. Edit: OMG this hobby is addictive. I just bought a laser pointer for over £100!!!! I didn't think I'd actually buy it. Internet shopping is so...

    Need advice on 532nm laser purchase.

    Will this fit the 400mW o-like? This is the one I'll be getting.

    Need advice on 532nm laser purchase.

    I have no idea what to do there. As long as it doesn't require soldering then I will do just that. But I don't want to risk breaking it. I'd rather just pay my £120 for a good 400mW and know that it's good quality and it won't break. I've seen the beams on 500mW greenies and they are...

    Need advice on 532nm laser purchase.

    That sounds very, very tasty... I may wait until January and get that one instead of the 1W I was planning on getting. I can imagine the beam on that being some schmexy stuff. What do you think the beam will look like on that? edit: £120 for that 400mW... wow. If it really is outputting at...

    Need advice on 532nm laser purchase.

    Hey. I'm currently in possession of the lasers in my signature. I am really happy with what I have so far. A greenie that is nice and portable. Not too bright. 50mW. I have a Red 200mW for burning. Blue/violet for prosperity 5mW. I need to complete my collection until I get a 1W laser in...

    LEDSHOPPE - 50mW 532nm Green Laser Pointer

    I honestly don't think that any company would send out replacements before even getting an e-mail but shipping from china takes a long time. It was here within like, 3 days. That's super fast. I just wasn't sure if it was possible which is why I assumed that they automatically sent it. The...

    BUDGETGADGETS - 200mW Red Burning Laser

    Sounds like really bad luck to me. They say that they will lose like 1% of their parcels to customs and losses. Someone always has to lose one. Mine actually arrived within 5 days, with rechargables. However, I'd be very pissed right there. :scowl: But yeah, if you really want to be sure that...

    BUDGETGADGETS - 200mW Red Burning Laser

    I guess I didn't think of that when I posted. Damn having low rep lol. Okay, the battery recharger for the CR2s is coming soon and I'll post up a picture or two from my phone. The quality might not be the best though. I'm a student so can't necessarily afford expensive recording equipment...

    LEDSHOPPE - 50mW 532nm Green Laser Pointer

    Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. However I mailed them recently and I'd like everyone to know that I received a brand new one free of charge about 3 days after the first. I have no idea how they mailed it so quickly. Perhaps they were having a lot of complaints about them. They may have...

    LEDSHOPPE - 50mW 532nm Green Laser Pointer

    Hey, I just recieved my 50mW green laser pointer from LEDshoppe. This is a reputable shop at which to buy them I've heard. Anyway, I powered it up with some duracell AAAs and it was very bright. For about 3 seconds. Then the intensity of the dot really faded to sub 5mW power. Hoping they just...

    BUDGETGADGETS - 200mW Red Burning Laser

    Hey, The delivery on this one was very quick, kudos to budget gadgets on that one. The price was also flawless at around £30. It came with 2 CR2 Rechargable batteries (I'm still waiting for the charger to arrive from a different shop). However they had a substantial amount of charge in them to...

    New to the hobby

    Sorry about leaving this post, it was pretty stupid. I thought I'd read up all the information, but I hadn't. Seriously the internet has EVERYTHING. I've just repurchased a new 50mw green laser (the one from LEDShoppe), Next week I'm going to get the BudgetGadgets 200mw red laser. Thanks for...

    Oh and I read the laser injury link on your sig. Enlightening, I will get some, however you have to be some kind of idiot to reflect 150mw lasers off mirrors randomly and expect to come out of it fine. :D

    New to the hobby

    Thanks for the info, I'll wait and see how this one looks. I was weary of the price, I can always send it back I suppose and get one from o-link, those prices do look a lot more realistic. Again, thanks.
