DealExtreme laser and my cat :)

[HienoKaveri]

What a fucking asshole. Totally irresponsible, this could permanently blind the stupid cat, and cause any reflective eye damage to the idiot owner too. So not use powerful lasers indoors, play with them outside if you have to. Stick to the 1mW ones you fucking dick.

[tomasson05]

Dude... Use simple red laser pointers to play with your cat. The eyes can get damaged! No joke!

[mewrox99]

That is endangering your cat.

Never point a >5mW laser at an animal. If you want to play with your cat use a <1mW keychain red

[maximilli111]

omg you should try making a laser :O i bought a 20 mw module from DX and its stronger than the 50mw true (i have it to)

[maximilli111]

you should use a 5mw red laser the green 50mw is really unsafe

[survivorevil]

why?

[maximilli111]

the ir can do invisible damage to your eyes even when ur not pointing it directly to ur eyes. I once had some eye damage for a day and it was terrible i saw colors in red for 1 day abd when i closed my eyes i could still see a red spot

[survivorevil]

@maximilli111

A quality green laser must have an ir filter

[Golph246]

@survivorevil dealextreme say's on the site that is doesn't have an ir filter

[hejhej25]

can i trust Dealextreame that they senda a 100mw green laser to sweden?

[luca0297]

I just ordred one to denmark, close too, lets see if i gets it (: hej igen

[MrJenwaY]

lol XD, I got a question too on the site at green lasers there is a 50mW with the price $16.84 and one of $20.90 are these exactly the same? and can I get it in euro's too cuz I live in the netherlands :o and i want the 50mW

[PBskill]

if you pay with paypal the you just pay the price in euros (like 20$ = 14€) asjeblieft :)

[MrJenwaY]

maar voor paypal hebik toch eeen ander kaartje nodig ofzo?? en heb jij die dan van 20 of van 16 dollar want ze zijn precies het zelfde alleen die prijs is anders toch?

[PBskill]

ik heb nog geen :P maar ik ga de 16 bestellen hoor. nee je moet met paypal namelijk met creditcard betalen.

[MrJenwaY]

hmm okey dan denkik datik die ook ga doen :o

[qrlasers]

one has bad qulity on might be out of focus one might be plastick on might use special atterys onemight be ir one might have a bunch of safety stuff the cheaper one can probably blind you easily

[krazykid0204]

ummm i know your intentions are all in good fun but there aren't any IR filters in DX lasers so just watch out for the eyes.

[Camoboy11]

lol i bet its good at catching mice

[rickster9222]

lol funny how it was minding its own business at the start and then BAM! wtf is that!? die!!!!

[phantom377173]

wow. lol. I heard that even the 50mw is illegal to ship to us now..

[kam3Oen]

You shouldn't use such powerful lasers around animals (or humans), if you want to use a laser, it should be a really cheap, really weak red laser.

[solitajre222]

thats how to lure a cat into a bathtub 4 washing XD

[arwar12]

lol hahahahaha

[Roelandman5959]

I did this with my cat, too and now he's totally CRAZY, man!!!!!!!

[Saggmos95]

i recomend using a less power ful laser to play with your cat.

[spedkid117]

flag him for animal abuse!!!

[AmmiAmann]

Shut up!

The Cat is okay man!

The laser comes from top to the floor and the eyes of a cat can't see in that angle the Laser Source.

[solitajre222]

how old were you when you realized you were gay?

[scottishdeveloper]

Hey im not sure if you know this, but 50mw green lasers are pretty hardcore and the ones from dealextreme do not contain an IR filter to keep them low price.

That basically means that without eye protection, 50mw on the green spectrum will be doing lasting damage to your eyes, nevermind the cats.

You can see this effect if you point the laser at a wall at an angle and the sparkling effect you view is rays of laser reflected directly into your eyes.

I just thought id let you know.

[windshieldvipers]

All light you see consists of rays going directly into your eyes. Beware!

Also, the output on DX lasers doesn't even reach its marketed value when it peaks .5 s after turning on, 50mW being the combined power of the green and the IR.

Finally, 50mW won't cause permanent eye damage. Not to say be careless, but neither the laser user nor the cat would come to harm, even shining directly into the eyes.

[magic101magic]

idtiot u could blind the cat. do wat i did got to petssmart and gen a 5 mw laser

[paymybillz]

aww i wish my cat was into lasers x) my cat is too lazy and fat :/ he just lies down and watches the dot :/

[bledis]

Yes green lasers are most visible in a day! I can clearly see that line :)

[tyler7878]

cool, i got true so mine is more powerful yay. one moer question, can you see the, i dont know how to call it, like the line coming from the laser, can u see that during the day

[ForgottenMemoriesFM]

i'm sorry not trying to be mean but how was that testing?

[tyler7878]

my cat spazzes over this haha. just wondering, whats the difference between a normal laser and a true laser

[bledis]

"Normal" laser have normally have less power than TRUE. Thats why True lasers more expensive!

[bledis]

Yea I have bought and that 200mW red laser. Burning power is fantastic :)

[Pencilshavings1]

I just got a DX 30 mw the point is BRIGHT!!

[bledis]

Yes, I have made a little test...

All my life, my eyes was at the best (I mean 1.0), now, after using the laser awhile, I have to ride on a car, I was checked my eyes again, and.... Now my eyes only 0.7 :( I was quite surprised... So really, be carefully people!

[Zwaffelen]

Hm that doesn't sound good.. I think I'll cancel my plans of buying one on DX. My sight is, perhaps even more than anyone else's, very important to me.

[iCookie1]

Lasers like that are dangerous. Even if you don't look directly at the laser, it can still hurt your eyes due to IR-radiation.

[VillageIdiot453]

iCookie, if you are that concerned about IR purchase an IR filter for about $10 and glue it to the inside of the aperture cap. Quality DPSS lasers (eg NovaLasers, LaserGlow) already come with filters.

[VillageIdiot453]

IR radiation from your 50mW pointer is harmless after ten feet or so anyways since it has massive divergence. It has been proved that the True 50 and the True 30 from DX actually have the filter. If you are still in doubt or don't feel like DIYing a filter in, you can buy goggles that block 808nm and 1064nm (the wavelengths for the pump diode and single-stage IR respectively) so you will have no troubles with light you cannot see.

[citysloth]

i just orderd 50mw laser its too cool and i cant w8

[SoldierNOTMartyr]

I've ordered a 30 mw laser and plan to use it just to annoy people, but even I can see that you could be damaging that cats eyes. Wow be more responsible.

[bledis]

Many of ebay laser sellers are just scammers... I would better choose dealextreme!

[mcjedi96]

wat is the difference beetween the dealextreme laser and ebay lasers ?

[elgranto7]

cats reflect light twice (hence why they see well in the dark)..... meaning double the laser damage (y)

[thisusernameismine12]

is everything the website said about it true?

does it burn stuff?

[bledis]

Aw don't pot mod it! It will kill some time of diode life! Its a bad thing to do that..

[daltonplotts]

yea i got a 20mw laser from dx and its gunna be a week tommorow i hope i get tommorow so i can pot mod it and turn it into a real powerful lazer!!!!!!!

how long should i expect

[iamgeekusa]

probobly another two weeks

[cbrian4]

seems about right my laser took 4 weeks to arrive and its no uncommon for dx to take longer than a month. average time is around 3 weeks though

[Toreddo]

Very funny my english bulldog does exactly the same!

[bledis]

Freak o_o

[Muphlon]

cool, burn its retina with it.

[bledis]

Yes, I think it has IR filter.. Well no one cant be sure what china sellers put in to these things :).

[02010]

did the IR filter come with the laser?

[bledis]

It HAS IR filter, and isnt so powerful cuz of IR filter! And as I said, that was just a TEST to show the beam quality and the cat reaction. I NEVER point at any live object anymore. I know the risk of lasers radiation and power!

[clampmaster]

Unfortunately for the cat, you are the owner! Why should any animal have to suffer at the hand of ignorance, you are killing its eyes every time you do that. And by the sound of the goofy laugh, this is a common occourance. 1mw or less is the safe number. DX lasers have a shitty IR filter at best, maybe you should stick your face 4 inches from the floor and stare at it for a while. Cats eyes are designed to see with less light, youve already taken that away from it permenently. GOOOOOF!

[bledis]

johnyrinsma yes, I can see beam VERY good. But I broke my laser now ^^ and ordering True 30mW now.. Its more better than 50mW :) Well, at least people saying that :P.

[johnnyrinsma]

can you see a beem with a 50mw?

[bledis]

Main doesnt light matches or pop baloons even if im using new Energizer batteries with magnifier :(. But beam is VERY bright, I can see it clearly in 3 km on the wall!

[Ofir]

I just bought the exact same laser from DX!

Have u tried popping baloons or lighting matches with it?

And can u see the actual beam when it's dark?
