Laser pointers are now banned in WA. The article doesn't state whether all powers are banned (surely not. Arrest those university lecturers!). I'm in SA and have been watching the ban articles from NSW, VIC, and now WA roll in.
Do reflector owners now have to hand in their laser collimators? Mine is rated Class IIIa. The horror!
I have a low power green laser on order from overseas which should arrive this week. Hoping it makes it before a total ban. It's only 5mw and there was nothing on the Customs website about a ban at the time of ordering...
