Hi Renato,

I have an old version of that laser which is rated at 5mW. Having also had an earlier 1mW hand held, the 5mW hand held is definitely brighter, however, I have also noted that the Arctic Fox 5mW rifle sight that I have is brighter than the 5mW hand held. A matter of inconsistent output on cheaper lasers.

I think that the variance across the cheaper laser is quite significant and due to their cheap costs I doubt that the output is tested, whereas, I find the output from all three of my Arctic Fox GL Lasers Weapon Sights appears to be the consistent. Being a gun sight, and being much more expensive, I would imagine that the quality control is much more rigid.

I have also noted that lasers certainly don't like the cold.

Cheers Peter
