The laser itself is very weak (<1mW). The instructions for putting in the batteries are actually backward (though this may have been due to bad wiring in my particular unit). The 42 tips are more like 20 or so. They waste about 10 on nearly-identical snowflakes. A few are impossible to make out. Others are slightly defective, such as a reversed dollar sign. There are true duplicates, such as two skulls and two "thumbs up" tips. You need to press on the button very hard at the right angle to even get the blasted thing to function.

However, these things are usually about $2 at flea markets. If you want a little red point of light in an absolutely dark room, this MIGHT do the job for you. At $2, it might be worth the risk. Just don't be surprised if this doesn't perform nearly as well as any other laser pointer you've seen.

Cool variety of laser beam heads, if you can actually get them to work and stay on. Definitely not a pro product. Some repeats of designs, and some that you just can't tell what they are. In general I'd rather just buy 1 really good laser pointer than have 42 heads, and only half of them work (kinda).

We ordered 3 of these. One didn't work out of the box. The other two died with less than 1 hr use. It went through all the batteries in less than 4 hours playtime. And ALL those tips -- were totally indistinguishable blobs. The most interesting part of the different tips was that some of them had fingerprints on the plastic that created some pattern when you used them. We didn't expect the best with what these cost, but we did expect them to be SOME kind of fun.
