Greetings to All!
I've been looking around on the net for a green laser over the last few days. I'm completely new to this, and I just wondered if anyone could help me with the companies. I'm trying to buy a 5mW green laser for recreational purposes. I'm not likely to modify it in anyway, and it doesn't have to burn holes in cups or bullet-proof vests or anything. I just want it to be reliable, work close to the advertised 5mW, and I want to purchase if from a company that can be trusted.
I've so far looked at AtlasNova, z-bolt, Miraclebeam, Thinkgeek, and Leadlight. Can someone tell me what the differences are between them? I'm leaning towards a pointer from Leadlight or AtlasNova, and I just want to hear if others have any details to offer about these companies and their products. Are their any companies that I should steer clear of? Are there any particular 5mW pointers that have failed to meet the expectations of people? Are there any companies besides these that I should be considering? Thank you to anyone who can offer any help!
I'm sorry if this has been answered before. I've looked around the laser section of this site and couldn't find the thread. If it has, can someone please direct me to that thread.
Cheers,
