Very fast shipping to France. Arrived in good conditions.
The product is working well and is good for its price.

The only difficulty is to put the battery in.
You can follow these instructions:
1) Pull the chip down (the opposite side were the clip is)
2) Simply slide the cover (with the clip) back
3) Opened
4) Pop the battery in
5) Slide it back and push the chip back up.

Very handy tool and delivered with a very nice bag.

Works just fine with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and Professional 32bit (both tested personally).

Length:: 6:48 Mins

A video review of this laser pointer. I think for the price it is a very good deal.

its ok. its cheap and does what i need it for. my classroom presentations. i take the battery out after use, it drains very easy.

very fast delivery. Not very easy to open the battery cap until you learn the trick. The quality of the plastic material is just so so, but enough for the price. Laser is bright enough.loud sound when click the button. length just right for holding in hand, like a normal pen length

I was suspicious whether or not this would work as advertised because of the low price but was pleasantly surprised that it worked just fine. So great value and because of the low price, I'm getting more so each of my kids can have one. Comes in nice zipped case which is good since the USB dongle does not store in the remote, so it keeps them together and the case is harder to lose than just a remote. Decent quality (likely China made since some words in instructions are misspelled. Description does not say what battery it takes which is important since some of these take unusual batteries, but happy to say that it takes a single AAA (came with a working AAA battery). Battery compartment is well concealed and there are no instructions on where it is or how to open it; so here is how to change the battery:

Battery Change Instructions (single AAA)
1. Push the slide switch on the side up towards the button side.
2. Slide the clip out from the remote as the clip is attached to the battery cover.
3. Replace battery then just slide the cover back on and push the side slide lock back down so a portion of it is now in the cover notch).

Laser pointer worked as promised. Remote control function worked on any windows system PRIOR to Vista / Windows 7. If you are running newer Windows software ie Powerpoint 2007 or better - Trade up. This remote will not work for you!

I've had this for more than a year. The batteries are hard to find--not one of the sizes you can pick up at a drug store or grocery store. To top it off, you must take the battery out after use or it drains the battery dry, meaning the next time you want to use it, you'd better hope you have a spare battery with you. More than once I've been ready to present and couldn't use the darn thing. In addition, the little red laser part is very faint. It doesn't even show up on most screens, even with a new battery in place. Finally, it has a very disconcerting flaw: I'll be advancing my slides as usual and all of a sudden, it'll advanced rapidly through the entire show, stopping only when it gets to the final slide! I then have to make a joke about and try to find my place again. One day I gave 4 presentation and it did that on 2 of them. Very annoying! In sum, I wouldn't recommend it.

Just got this one for Christmas. I previously had the more expensive Targus, which had an impressive number of buttons and was quite sleek looking, but really big for my hands, and definitely an overabundance of buttons that seemed not useful (except for the power button, that I wish this pointer had). The other button the Targus had that seemed somewhat useful was the 'Start Slideshow' button. But really, you only have to push one button on your laptop to get that started.

This laser pointer is impressively bright, better than the Targus, and not 'too good' - a laser pointer that's bright but too well focused will still only produce a tiny dot on a far away screen, but this one has some spread.

Just to be clear, I have the AAA battery version of this pointer. It annoys me that there is no power button, but that's economy for you. I don't find it too hard to get the battery out, but my battery cover slider button came broken, so there is some wrangling with the tip before the cover slides out. I just store the battery in the mesh pouch inside the case. The other weird thing is that the USB dongle has an annoying red LED on it that blinks whenever you hit a button. Like, really? I need an LED to tell me that I'm getting a signal? And in a dark room with a bunch a people that are supposed to be riveted to my presentation, not a flashy light on the back of my latop? I plan on covering with black duct tape.

I like that this pointer is pen sized. I hate having something big and clunky in my hands when I'm trying to articulate a point by gesturing. One of the best features of this remote is the software. The button must be pressing 'page down' and 'page up' through the wireless, because it works on everything! I can use it to scroll through a long website just as easily as a Powerpoint presentation. Will be useful for presentations where I'm referencing outside sources like a Mathematica presentation or a website. Do all 'Powerpoint' remotes do this? I'd never seen it before.

Finally, the only real complaint I have (and I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned before) is that the buttons make a REALLY loud clicking noise when you press them. I have yet to find out if it's going to be distracting yet.

The RF Wireless laser Pointer is useful to go forward and back in your PowerPoint presentation without the need to be close to your computer, the laser light is powerful and can be used to call the attention to specific part of a PowerPoint page. It uses a AAA battery that is easy to replace. I have been using it for a while and have not had any problem.

The red laser worked only 1 minute. I looked for the brand name in the product's manual but there is no company behind. The warranty is a joke!!!
