Beat this for value!
200MW for $29.
But read they safety warnings first! These suckers emit visable and invisable IR light, which may diverge and reflect at different directions.
AND IF THE INVISABLE IR IS REFLECTED BACK IN TO YOUR EYES YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE IT UNTIL IT HAS TOASTED YOUR RETINA!
