There seems to be a bit of confusion about the page link I provided. The
10 mw laser I ordered is just below the table in the center.

All,
I have received several requests for more specific information about my
purchase. I have provided the link below. Please keep in mind that I do
NOT have any experience with this item yet, so I am NOT recommending it,
merely providing my decision. Multiple folks kindly provided
recommendations, so there are multiple good sources out there.
I went with the 10 mw (bottom of page at the link provided below, although
I considered the 30 mw. Price was the deciding factor for me this time
around.
I have always used 5mw in the past, and found it satisfactory for most
occasions. But, as a guide, there are a few times when the extra power
will be useful.
More powerful lasers can be dangerous! It is absolutely essential that
one uses the pointer very carefully, and obey all laws regarding their use.

Thanks for the input, everyone. I received quite a few private replies,

well.
I have chosen to go with Optronics for my next laser. This decision was
based partly upon price, as most of the higher quality lasers were quite
a
bit more $$.
We'll see how it works.

The red laser I got from Staples could be seen on my hiking boot. Five
feet away in the dust of the trail the red beam of the laser was
invisible. For trees 20 feet away or ducks a hundred yards or even 100
feet away in a pond, the red laser was useless.
My experimenting with the green laser I got a few months ago has been
limited but much more promising. A number of people used green
Choke Canyon Reservoir when the Pacific -slope Flycatcher was there.Local
ameture astronomers have used green lasers at events I have attended ataircraft
Government Canyon and in NW North Dakota
Keep in mind that pointing a green laser into the cockpit of any
is a good way to go to jail. That probably applies to boats, cars,ATVs,
etc.and all
Hope this helps.

Has anybody discovered a green laser point that will last more than a
season? I have tried cheap and expensive over the last few years,
ofof them have been unreliable.
