I bought this rascal in Shenzhen for 160 Yuan after an incredible amount of haggling. The guy would part with the blue laser for less than 200 US so I didnt get it but based on how this one performed maybe I should have. It is marked "Laser 603" has an incredible battery run time and the green laser is clearly visible in a well lit office environment (or a lightly overcast day...not in broad daylight). I have several greenies but none of them are remotely like this. You cant shine it at a nearby wall as it would cause pain if you weren't wearing protective eye gear.

Maybe it is just a strong brand or maybe I got one that is way overdriven but it is crazy. I searched for Laser 603 (the only distinctive marking) but couldnt find it.

I dont think this is the original box...they just dug around for boxes.

Does it say anywhere on the warning label something about its output? (i.e. 5mW or 50mW) and if you cant see the beam in broad daylight but in a slighlty less lit environment im guessing it is around 30mW-50mW. Also, keep in mind that goggles are needed for any laser above 5mW:)

That isnt entirely true, i have several 100mW+(i also have a lpm) that you can barely see the beam indoors or even in a slightly darkened room. My guess is it would be around 80-125mW. Also i can sort of make out a output "measurement" on the sticker. And the "laser 603" means nothing.. It is just a random print on a cheap chinese Host
