You forgot to include <50mW and >1000mW :undecided:

no i didnt forget 50 and 1000mw they're there

 

[Fenzir]

He meant less than 50mw and greater than 1000mw.

My favorite, probably 5mw of green. I bring it everywhere with me and is legal.

I like the 50mW Greens. I feel safe enough to do most things without goggles, and the beams are to die for!

He doesn't care what color you like, only the power...lmfao.

As was already mentioned...
The [ > ] sign means Greater Than and the [ < ] sign
means Less Than...
Like if you check the warning label on your 200mW
523nm Laser... It no doubt reads <200mW..

Like Photonic induction sais I WANT MORE !!!

so a 1000mw of 638 of red would be nice

 

[GBD]

I vote 1000mw, Im happy in the 1W-2W range... for greens.

The more the merrier I guess.

I would like to see how much power of 638nm-640nm is needed to ballance a 1W-2W green... Id imagine not far off 2W or so due to the visability of 638 vs 660

I have a 200mw green, I am very pleased with it... At night I put it on it's little tripod, right outside my apartment and aimed it more-or-less at the zenith, streight up, but at a slight angle. (no chance of aircraft incidents, I am very familiar w/ the traffic patterns around here).

I walked around ~ 30 meters away, and just "oo'ed and 'awe'ed" at seeing that thing arcing overhead (somewhat faintly - a pale green line overhead).

If the rule of thumb = 2x brightness = 4x mw applies, I wouldn't mind getting an 800mw+ 532 though. Duty cycle would probably be terrible though. AND I probably couldn't afford it right now.

I'm new here but I don't think the Poll includes using Flux Capacitors, And creating space -time warps etc.

Hey JB Texas- you gave me an idea when you said you were admiring the Arc from your Laser.

A bunch of colors could be done as an Art Piece ( Government Approved and permitted ) as a kind of Laser Rainbow over certain parts of cities- would be a beautiful effect, I'm sure.

As a newcomer to Lasers even though I knew what the acronym meant at nine yrs. old I'm not sure whether I'd rather be able to play around ( carefully ) with a relatively safe 5mw unit versus a more powerful one requiring goggles etc.

It's too bad they are so dangerous because especially the different colors are beautiful with Lasers.

So I have no idea what my favorite mw is - yet.
