    I think no one around here realizes how fucking insane a 5 W laser pointer is, it’s not blinding people level, it’s more like, don’t shine it at anything white or you might blind yourself level.

    For reference the highest laser security classification starts at 0.5 W.

    Maybe I’m exaggerating here but 5 W is definitely a lot.

    So yeah, I’m down with the laser pointer.

      That’s a good point. If it’s strong enough to start a fire, that’s serious power. The only issue is running out of battery power.
