I had a 5 mw pointer and found it not very usefull. I recently bought 2 of the cheap 1 mw lasers off eBay mentioned on another thread. Both were brighter than my old 5 mw version. I think that there isn't great quality control with these devices. Just buy a 1 mw version and see how you go. Mine were $12 each so not a big outlay.
