Best location to purchase a 5mW green laser?

[Abemas]

I've decided I would just like to simply buy a standard and legal 5mW green laser. Where is the best location I can purchase such a laser and be guaranteed it will be a true 5mW strength?

I'd talk to Arnold at AtlasNova. I'd think he'd be able to set you up with something you'd like. .

I checked out his website and he seems to guarantee that the lasers are 5mW. Has anyone here actually purchased one of these that can verify this? I also noticed that he sells the same lasers on Ebay for less...anyone bought from him via that avenue? Lastly, are there any other sources that you can recommond for lasers of this caliber?

Thanks!

www.cleverlasers.com
www.wickedlasers.com (no 5mW's here though)
www.abeland1.com
www.vitalspirit.com (you'll have a good chance of scoring a leadlight worthy of a mod, if its not bright enough for you from here.)
www.z-bolt.com
www.extremelasers.com
www.megalaser.com

Probably heaps more.

In the end a leadlight is a leadlight.
The only seller offering a really unique 5mW is bigha, with their APC etc. On a side note and yes probably a bit OT, but wouldn't the APC sensor in the jasper be similar to the one in the 110's?

Anybody with any other suggestions?

If you just want a standard 5mw, go with Atlasnove (www.abeland1.com). I have said it before, and I'll say it again, he is a great guy with great business practices. You won't be disappointed buying from him. I am pretty sure that he has eBay "Buy it Now" prices of $58.50, so I would say go for that. Some of the other vendors are really shady in how they represent themselves and their business practices in general, so tread carefully with a couple of them.

Just my 2 cents.

You can reach Arnold at 866.500.8928 or 509.466.0789.

Hey senecaripple, have you received your two phoenix lasers as of yet?

if you ask for an =5mW laser from Arnold (not >5mW or <5mW), he will calibrate it to =5mW for you.

From what I've heard of AtlasNova (Arnold, same person), you essentially get what you paid for. Buy one from his eBay store (seller id: abeland1) for $50-$60 and it will likely be closer to 5mW than if bought from his website for $79.
