$1k laser pointer

[Fenghuang]

Want one so bad.

 

Too much to spend on what would essentially be used as a fancy toy, especially one that small and loseable.

 

Lookit what it can do though!

• Green dot visible
   
  
• Beam visible with smoke or fog in lighted areas
   
  
• Beam visible at night
   
  
• Beam visible without smoke or fog in lighted areas
   
  
• Make holes in black trash bags
   
  
• Open-cut healing power
   
  
• Cut black electrical tape
   
  
• Ignite wooden or paper matches
   
  
• Pop dark colored balloons
   
  
• Melt Plastic
   
  
• Light Cigars and Cigarettes
  

I wonder if it can burn human flesh. ^_^

ZAP

 

:cool:

Or you could just buy a regular one and use the $990 you save to buy a zippo lighter if you're so keen on burning stuff.

[Fenghuang]

Yeah but it's not as cool as burning stuff with a frikkin' laser.

 

I'm just sayin' is all.

 

Also you can't hypothetically burn your friend's neck from across the room with a Zippo. "

[Atreides]

Admit it, you just want to light cigarettes with a lightsaber.

[Fenghuang]

I don't smoke.

 

Maybe a tobacco pipe.

"My application for a 15mW green laser is to point out astronomical objects in the night sky"

 

It can bounce light off stars? Holy shlamolie...

 

Sounds like a great way to blind someone. Er. Wait. I don't want to blind anyone.

[Fenghuang]

The beams show up in the dark so it doesn't have to bounce off the stars. Silly Wals.

 

And it is a good way to blind someone, I think I read on teh forums that the flash blind distance for the lower powered Spyders (200mW) is around 300 meters (tested with a camera). Gnarly stuff.

[Walsingham]

Hurrah for pointless mutilation! *dances*

[Fenghuang]

I just wanted to use it for parlour tricks.

[Surreptishus]

You can blind someone with the cheapo laser pointers so I hate to think what would happen with this particualr model

That's true... lots of fun to be had there.

I don't think they can burn people

 

if they can, and you just multiply that in size, we have Death Star technology!

 

....mmmm.....moment of triumph.....

[Archmonarch]

I believe this

I wonder if it can burn human flesh.  ^_^

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

is implied by this

 

Open-cut healing power

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Therefore, have at it.

[Moose]

It's the same pioneering technology they use to laser the flesh off womans' breasts to insert implants without leaving scars. Believe me it can and will easily burn people. Enjoy... I guess.

[kumquatq3]

ok, I want one to now

 

....and a death star

Pack sand noob! That trinket is only 4/10ths of a watt. If you ever want to run with the big boys you'll consider this item at half the price and it emits 20-30 full watts of cutting power! And...it's invisible so there's no trail to lead the nosy-assed police back to whoever created that 'stylin' new tatoo on Gov. Swartz .
