This laser I recently purchased on fleabay for just under $70 and I am quite pleased with its brightness and build quality. All aluminum construction and the machining looks quite nice. It was advertised as a 50mw green with all you see in the exploded group picture. This is the second one I have bought and the first one was alittle hotter (brighter) that this one. Turn it into a pointer or use it on a rifle what ever, pretty good bang for the buck,

That seems like a great price for a 50mw green, if it's really 50mw. It seems like it would be so much more robust that a pen laser and it takes 123s. I'm surprised there haven't been more posts about this laser.'

I just noticed that the pictures from the link are different than your own pictures. It's got white writting all over the front and scale marks of some type...... :thinking:

Fleabay is nortorious for showing one thing and shipping something very similar. Anyway, the laser is very bright with a fresh 123, you can feel the beam on the back of your hand start to burn. The beam is visible in reduced light, like inside a dimly lit room and it absolutely rocks outside at night. The little guy is well worth the money IMHO. It is way more robust than a pen pointer and uses 123 batts like you all ready said. I have bought 2 lasers from the Ebay seller in the posted link and the package comes out of Hong Kong in 9 days. Try one you won't be disappointed.

Hmmm.....also noticed that they "get ya" with $20 in shipping charges. That's a bit stout for a small package.

So, someone's gotta ask the question...
I don't see any mention of IR filtering. So, unless you have the ability to confirm that it does indeed have an IR filter, don't shoot your eye out. :p

Anyone familiar with this model, manufacturer, dealer, etc.? Low priced, high power greens seldom seem to have good IR filters from what I've gathered.

The shipping cost I paid in the Ebay link posted was $9.99, not $20.

Interesting laser! Is that protective glass on front end cap or is it just a hole? Can it handle li-ion cr123 3V battery (3.4v fresh charged)?
I don't see any beam divergence stated, can You measure size of dot on 10m distance?

Thanx.

The build of the laser is identical to the Brons green laser gun sight. I believe I saw a Lifeforphsics post dissect one and found a IR filter. Is there any way to test the beam for the present of IR???
