Last...Monday? Received it today...pretty damn fast shipping, I must say, considering it came from China.
I've got my GBS-100, but I wanted something portable with a little less danger. In all honesty, I'll probably end up selling the GBS-100 within a short amount of time.
I ordered the 15mw, but the sticker on mine says <30mw. From what I read on their forums, they sometimes upgrade you if they don't have what you ordered in stock, and someone else also received a 30 for a 15.
This thing IS awful damn bright. It really puts a spot on the wall. I'm at the office (I also ordered Wicked goggles) and put them on. I grabbed a magnifying glass, and I could make smoke off of my black leather wallet.
It was also able to burn a pinhole through a garbage bag, WITHOUT the magnifying glass.
Could a typical 15mw do that, or did I really get something more in the 30+ range?
Comparing the dot to my 100mw, it's obviously not THAT bright, but it does put a nice dot on the wall, like I said...also, I put it under my desk by my computer where it's kinda dusty, and I could faintly see the beam.
Seems like a pretty good deal for $99, regardless...powered by 2 AAA batteries.
