50mW Green Laser Pointer from Andrews Comm.

Just got a 50mW Pointer from Andrews Comm.
http://www.andrewscom.com.au/site-co...10-andrews.htm
I used to have a 10mW but it has since been sold.

The power of this thing is impressive. The 10mW pointer used to give a strong beam but the difference is amazing!

It gives a very strong beam that can put a spot on overhead clouds!
When in a dark room, pointing it at a wall that has been painted with a roller gives an amazing 'Matrix' like effect on every other wall and surface. Billions of speckels everywhere. Quite unusual.

It has a nice Gold finish and seems silghtly larger and heaver then the 10mW.

My one concern is that this laser is powerfull enough to really interfear with aeroplains and the like. My old 10mW could not reach the clouds but this one does so with ease, even at an angle of 20degrees off zenith.
If idiots get a hold of this one it will only be a matter of time before they're baned!

Great tool but maybe a double edged sword.
