If a 100mW isn't bright, then it ain't 100mW anyway. I use a 40mW Actic Fox laser rifle sight and that is very bright, and easily does the job.

A 1000mW rated laser would be way too bright anyway and would be very noticeable, which is something that will attract attention. I had the Police helicopter fly over my place, because they saw the beam and once they saw my telescope, they bugged out. They have NVG binoculars on board.

I doubt you would be allowed to use a true 1000mW anyway and it would be way too expensive.
