Dude, I want one of these things.

www.wickedlasers.com

They cost about $500, but they go for MILES. Imagine pointing it at a building a mile or two away, and it going that far. You can't point it at your skin or it'll actually burn away at it. You can light a cigarette with it! It's crazy!

This is their legal stuff:

Quote:

Because of the legal and safety issues associated with lasers, Wicked Lasers requires that you understand and agree with the following before purchasing our laser products.

The beam from a class IIIb laser can cause serious or even permanent eye damage and the blink reflex is not quick enough to prevent this damage.

Pointing any laser at an aircraft is a serious violation of US federal law.

Wicked Lasers products are manufactured in China for the world market. You, the purchaser, are responsible for complying with the laws of the country within which your purchase is used.

Legal Notice for US Customers: Wicked Lasers products are class IIIb lasers. They exceed the US FDA power limitation of 5mW for import as laser pointers or for general use and are classified as OEM (original equipment manufacturer) laser components for industrial use or for incorporation into another product in accordance with 21 CFR (code of Federal Regulations) 1040.10 and 1040.11. You are fully responsible for the safe application of this component and its use.

Class IIIb lasers can be seized by US Customs. If this happens to your order, Wicked Lasers will send another laser to you or refund your purchase amount, whichever you choose.

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued an order (7400.2E, ch. 29) affecting businesses operating outside laser shows. Such businesses are required to complete and file Advisory Circular 70-1 (caution: a 2.2 MB download)

By purchasing a Wicked Lasers product you are agreeing to:
Never allow anyone under 18 years of age to operate the laser when not supervised by a responsible adult.
Never look directly into the laser beam or a direct reflection (from a mirror or reflective surface) of the beam, or allow anyone else to do so.
Never shine the laser beam at a person, a vehicle, into crowds or in any public place where the laser beam, or its reflection, may go into a person's eye.
Never use the laser as a pointer in a typical classroom, meeting or seminar.
Never remove a laser's infrared filter.
Never use the laser in a manner that is dangerous, malicious or illegal.

Once the technology gets cheaper for those things, and you're able to compact the power supply, you could, theoretically, make a lighter out of it. It would be a weaker power supply unit, so the laser wouldn't be as strong, and as long, so you wouldn't worry about it searing a hole through your roof. I think UB needs to put a patent on that bitch, and make us some real money.

P.S. We would need to put some sort of disclaimer on it, like; "Don't point this lighter at your friends. Don't begin laser cycle of the lighter with your face directly above it, etc."

dude i want one, that be kool

**RogueRonin** · 09-19-2005, 04:54 PM

I'll start working on the schematics for it. If we couldn't somehow get the laser not so powerful, we could make a lighter like the old-school camping lighters. They're cyclindrical, and have a piece that slides up and down, to cover up the open flame. We could fit a small mirror in the top, to reflect the laser back to the base of the lighter. The only problem with that, is some braniac who disassembles it, so he has some half-ass light saber. Which I'm working on too, by the way.

I know some weapons come with those...

**catalyst** · 09-19-2005, 07:25 PM

A friend of mine at my old school had one of those, the green one too.. he bought it from this site:
http://www.z-bolt.com/generic27.html

i think he had the 89 dollar 'high powered' one.. not sure though, anyway that thing was fucking nutz, we would stand at the top of the hill where our dorm was, and shine it probably half a mile down to the student center, as long as you had a clear shot it would be a completely solid ray going all the way.. there was also this skyscraper that was being demolished like 10 miles away, he could hit that too, lit the whole thing up green.

So, stupid question.

What is the point of using that with all those agreement rules and regulations?

**Rooz** · 09-19-2005, 10:58 PM

You don't have to follow the regulations... just can't be caught.
