This pointer has a negative feedback circuit (APC = Automatic Power Control) that insures that the output power will not exceed 5mW. This makes them more suitable for indoor use.

It has a small green LED placed just above the "ON" button to show when the pointer is radiating.

This is not a toy - not for children.

All metal construction.

Metal gift box. 2AAA batteries included.

A glass collimating lens causes the "dot" to be sharply defined.

This pointer is NOT MADE IN CHINA.

The APC pointers have a negative feedback circuit (APC = Automatic Power Control) that insures that the output power will not exceed 5mW. This makes them more suitable for indoor use. It has a small green LED placed just above the "ON" button to show when the pointer is radiating. You need to start with a unit that has a nominal output of say 10-15mW and incorporate a sensor after the MCA and send a voltage back to the driver circuit that will establish a "setpoint" that represents a certain output level. The driver circuit then adjusts the current to the pump diode to achieve that level. This is in addition to the photodiode that is in the pump diode assembly itself which is used to keep the pump diode from going crazy (chaotic non-linier device that it is). An additional benefit feedback with headroom has is that the device is no longer subject to the "cool-down" rule and may be kept on continuously

I have been answering a lot of questions brought about by the titles and descriptions contained in the listings for green laser pointers. I am going to try to answer some of them here:

"Is yours DPSS?"

They are all DPSS - Diode Pumped Solid State - This refers to the method of generation of the laser light and is, to my knowledge, the only way to make a green laser pointer.

"Does it have a range of "up to" 2 miles - 15000 feet - shine on clouds - etc. etc -???"

How far the dot will be visible depends on how much ambient light is present and the quality of the lens keeping the dot size small to concentrate as much optical power as possible on the target. These Pointers have a very high quality glass lens.
