This pointer was great at first. Out of the box it was very bright and the beam could easily be seen from a perpendicular viewpoint. Afterwards, however, it dimmed dramatically. I tried changing the batteries, and that fixed it for a few seconds until it dimmed again. The optical components that I could get to (beam shaper and collimating lens) were very loose, which leads me to believe that the dye crystal that turns the laser green probably loosened as well. Spend the extra money to get a better laser than this one.

I use pointers a lot for my job. This one is by far the worst. During one of my presenations, the pointer lost focus and became an indiscernible blob. In addition, the laser sometimes takes a few moments to gather strength - it starts dim and gets brighter. Again, this is a non-starter when you are trying to make a positive impression. Bottom line is stay away from this product.

when i saw this item it said 2 miles, well it's not its only a 5mw powered laser pointer which really isn't that powerful at all it barely shines across my backyard and no where near 2 miles, if your looking for a laser pointer that does go that far get one that is 50mw or higher for longer distance.
