[AZ-Observing] Re: Wicked Laser Question

I had new batteries for it and even went out and picked up the super club pack

replace it. 

Four days? I'll see how long it take the replacement to get here... The race is 
on

Read Andrew's response also... With just a few more mW you might have been able 
to draw the phases on the moon for her...:-)
