Hello,
Maybe it is a good idea to post a general laser safety thread, as there is many warnings and regulations scattered around this forum.
I do not know enough about this matter to make one, so i would ask you smart people to compose a simple and easy safety guide, including:
Cleaning (disarming your laser)
Power levels (general use, range and permanent damage)
IR filters
Goggles
general use (NEVER point at someone)
and what i really miss on the forum, do not ever point a laser at a aircraft or helicopter. Not only is this illegal (atleast where i live) but once you have had it happen to you you'll know why. Especially at night a helicopter pilot will be totally blinded even by a 5mw green laser.
