Be careful as hell with 405nm wave length mate may look dim on a wall or something but it goes in your eye in will blast a whole through the retina! Good video though 👌
I got a similar one from Wish, and as soon as I fired it up, it was deadly obvious that is was well above 5mw and likely quite dangerous. Mine did not have any diffusing lens and was a HELLA bright point of light. I learned my lesson pretty quick. 😣
Some of these things are strong enough to cause matches to light - something only lab-quality lasers are supposed to do. Atomic Shrimp is quite right, the chances are that it is actually causing burns.
Hi,Interesting little thing, I thought it may have been what I have been looking for until you told us how bright it is. I want one to play with my cat as he likes running after things, can you point me in the right direction for a pet friendly version, any advise would be gratefully received.
I don't have any specific recommendations, but if you get one of the really cheap red laser keychains from eBay, it's almost guaranteed to be low power and safe for pets (but take great care to keep it out of their eyes anyway)
Thanks, I have just looked and found one for £1:00 so I think this will be low power. My cat is 7.5 kg in weight so he only waddles rather than run so it should be easy to keep it away from his eyes. Thanks again for the advice
Eye protection is a good idea. Actually, buying a laser pointer with lower power, and a peak in the visible spectrum is probably a better idea. On reflection, there's not a lot of real world use for this product.
@laser reviews109 Dude, I never mentioned sunglasses - that was "ItsPancakes". I was jokingly replying to Atomic Shrimp that just owning a "hand-held death ray" was _reason enough_ to buy one, never mind "real world use". Atomic Shrimp *also* didn't say "sunglasses", he said "eye protection". Seems you're making a lot of assumptions about what Atomic Shrimp and I know or don't know about lasers. Funny how you replied to us and not the OP who *actually* mentioned sunglasses.
Hi not sure if you all know this or not but pretty sure it's a dead straight fact that if you can see that purple laser as a bright pointer tip, then it's completely IMPOSSIBLE that it's anywhere near the 5mw range. It's most likely MUCH higher despite the false advertising and is extremely dangerous to the human eye almost instantaneously of being shined into an eye. Ultraviolet is hard for the human eye to see so purple/violet lasers are going to be invisible to you at such low 5mw intensities. That it's bright means it up well towards 100+ mw and quite dangerous, as well likely illegal to possess since laser pointers above 5mw are not legal. Just a suggestion NEVER let this laser get into the hands of a youth or child who is not knowledgeable about the almost "weapon" they are holding onto. It's NO toy by a long shot. Stay away from these cheap green lasers as well as they are not properly filtering out the low length IR that is mixed in to make a green laser. Amazon sold a bunch of green as well for dirt cheap that tested WAY outside the safe ranges and exposure to high intensity IR wavelengths was observed. Not blaming just trying to protect and watch for you all!!! :-) ♡
Having recently seen styropyro's warning about cheap allegedly "safe 5mW" laser pointers often being way more powerful than what they claim (and having shown it to my kids as a warning), I was just about to make the same comments as you did. Good on you for the timely warning. Like styropyro, I've nothing against the idea of owning hand-held death rays, but it pays to be aware of that fact and behave accordingly rather than thinking they're safe toys or novelties. One thing, though: some of these are powerful enough that a reflection off a white surface - just looking at the point projected on the wall - can be damaging to the eyes so it pays to be wearing quality laser protection goggles rated for the frequency of the laser you're using. Styropyro was getting readings orders of magnitude higher than the supposed 5mW rating when he tested some cheap lasers with his laser meter. Apparently some goggles block IR as well as part of the visible spectrum due to the aforementioned issue with some of the green lasers.
Yeah, although the camera is pretty much faithfully showing what the eye sees too - it's not visually very bright, but I think that's just because it's near the limit of the visible spectrum - it looks bright when it hits the wall probably because there are fluorescent fillers in the paint. Shining this in your eye would be a bad idea, I think.
I stumble on a lot of your videos by accident but i love each one
Can you see the beam at night?

Sorry I heard you mention it at end of video 😊
A stupid person shined it in my eye in school (at a 45° angle) hope I don’t have blind spots

@Francisco Malheiros WHAT WHY? ;(
@Francisco Malheiros I have a rechargeable laser pointer that is way overspec and was able to burn a match. I would never throw it out :(
I didn't know it can activate glow in the dark materials Learn something new everyday
i have one and if i hold it over my hand for 10 seconds it sorta burns can you tell me if its just me or if it actually burns
Well, it's near-UV, and reasonably bright, so yes, it could be burning you. I would suggest *not* pointing it at yourself (or indeed, other people)
Some of these things are strong enough to cause matches to light - something only lab-quality lasers are supposed to do. Atomic Shrimp is quite right, the chances are that it is actually causing burns.
A load of the chinese lasers can actually burn and are class 4 lasers theres many on ebay
My spring seems to have been pushed in. Any idea how to fix thag?
Not really sure - can you hook it back out with tweezers or a bent paperclip?
My purple laser is like a web of spider?
Its is good if im using energizer aaa

John Fithian-Franks u sexy boy
Dollar tree
You a real one I love purple
do you have to wear sunglass because it's around
70mw

@@AtomicShrimp Aside from owning a "hand-held death-ray", which is kinda cool in and of itself... :P

sind eher 80mW
Purple for the win nice vid thanks ✌👍 shine a black light on a banana

@aggressive pizza you prob got eye damage from looking at the dot tho
I paid 19p on wish lol
i was about to comment its shit! but the glow in the dark toy showed its mostly the camera lol

your " favourite colour is " purple .. are you 9?
If that's what it takes
What's your problem? Violet is the best color, whole awesome outrun and vaporwave consist on violet colors
What would be an acceptable colour to favouritize in your opinion, rob b?
