Red lasers are so yesterday’s news. Dress to impress, but to really set off that presentation, get yourself a green laser pointer… This pointer is significantly brighter (about 50 times) than a red laser pointer and because of its unusual color it is much more noticeable.

And unlike a red laser, the green beam itself can be seen in mid-air in dark conditions, not just the laser beam dot. This allows the green laser pointer to be used for pointing to star constellations (skypointing) and also just generally look cool as hell. The green laser beam dot can be seen at much greater distances than with a red laser pointer.

Features of this unit include:

• Very bright green laser at 532 nm wavelength
• Output power of <5mW (Class IIIa Laser Product)
• Range of approximately 9,000 ft (2600 m) in darkness
• 1.1 mm beam diameter at source
• Momentary push button switch
• Solid, heavy duty construction
• Constant wave output (as opposed to pulse output)
• Takes 2 “AAA” batteries (included)
• Can be used for skypointing, projection on low clouds, signalling, detecting explosives
• Dimensions: 5.6″ x .5″ dia
• 90-day warranty
