Yep, I hate those boogers too. No chance of the laser doing anything but ruffling its feathers. You could probably blind them but that would be pretty cruel, better to just shoot it with a pellet gun (if it is legal in TX?). |

It's better to get eye protection that are bandpass filtered. Regular sunglasses filter all wavelengths roughly the same. That causes your pupils to dilate and let in more light which kind of defeats the purpose. I use blue plastic filters (which I have the transmission charts to) over my clear safety glasses. |

Why would you need a laser on a headlamp? Thanks for the link I will have to check out the deals on that website.

Saw that I missed the postman yesterday. Circled the neighborhood and found him and signed for my shit. Got my package home and found..
..the batteries that I ordered for it. Two 5-packs. Why ship batteries across the world without the item I obviously ordered them for?

I am going to get that headlamp w/laser and wear it around the mine. I imagine hilarity ensuing is possible....

Got my laser today!
Ordered the wrong batteries.  (got CR123As, needed CR2s, went to Radio Shack and they were $10/ea, so I'll wait for my rechargeables to get here)

Judging by this thread, I ordered mine the day after you did. You got the laser and I got the batteries.

Their ship times are hit and miss, sometimes 2 weeks, sometimes 4-6. But free, you can't go wrong. |

Not happened to me yet. (15+ orders) This is my favourite light of theirs:  $13.50, cree emitter, 1xcr123a, really bright with rechargables (HURTS to look at) and best of all, a pocket clip. Twist-on, only thing that would make it better is a clicky-on, but for the price it's hard to beat. www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6117 |

Well guys, I accidentally bought CR123As (normal and rechargeable).
So it looks like now I have to buy a light to go with the batteries.... I hate you all. I'm going to buy that light that was posted right before this post. ETA: Best Buy had CR2s cheap, so I bought 3 pair to hold me over till my rechargeables get here. This thing is SICK. |

$22 for shipping a pair of glasses? The eye protection would cost $71.98.... I might as well throw the laser away

Got mine today. The dot is too intense to view when shined on anything that's not matte black. I could see the beam indoors with the light on, but not outside. I don't have any problems with the build quality as some of the reviewers did. The thing is powerful, no doubt about it.
I need some glasses. +1 about the Wicked Lasers shipping cost. Christ. |

Anyone find a decently prices set of eye protection for this laser yet?
When I am holding the laser it feels like I am holding a loaded gun.

Update 5/20/08:
Well I was looking to order some PMAGs but the problem was nobody had the kind my buddy and I wanted in stock (black windowed PMAGs). The few places that did have them were asking for almost $18 each plus shipping. Well after browsing through the EE, I saw an awesome ad where Black PMAGs were being offered for $16.25/ea with FREE shipping (for orders of 10 or more)  It was 5 am but I saw their website said they take orders 24 hours a day (that's dedication & service!) so I called and Joe picked up the phone he was very nice even though it was 5 freaking am. In just a few days my order showed up, I give this a big thumbs up. On top of it all, he's an Industry Partner so order up folks, you know you will be kicking yourself in November if you don't :www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=24&t=544549

For those of us who refuse to buy from anti-gun companies like Levi Strauss & Co, Lucky Brand Jeans is having their twice per year 50% off sale. These jeans are (mostly) made in the USA, which is a big bonus.
Lucky is not my favorite brand of jeans. I prefer 5EP, KMW, APC and Nudie raw denim, which hold up much better to wear and use heavier selvege denim. But Luckys are good for instances when I don't want to mess up my nicer jeans. I've got one pair of Luckys and bought another during this sale. The next time they'll have this sale is around Xmas so if you miss this one, check back on their site at that time. Edit: (6/30/08): sale is now up to 75%. Get em while you can. |

Update 7/19/08:
The thread about the guy finding a scorpion in his house got me thinking about getting a UV light. I looked around and found most UV flashlights to be weak and diffuse. Then I found this one on the trusty DX site:  www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10709 I got it in yesterday and ran around the yard with it last night and it rocks! Fit and finish is excellent, uses P60 modules, and the UV LED is really powerful. Mine came with a belt clip. I didn't see any scorpions but had no trouble spotting bits of paper in the yard from 50 feet away. Should be great for hunters looking to track blood or other people looking for bodily fluids  For less than $18 bucks delivered, it's a steal.ETA: This thing is powerful, make sure you use UV blocking eye protection. |

I discovered DealExtreme a while back. I don't know how much I spent there but damn they have some kewl toys.
BTW, I treat my little 30mw green laser like a gun. At night I have lit up things a half mile away quite clearly. I have also learned to NOT use it in the house nor at anything closer than 50 feet away outdoors. Your 200mw lasers are a hell of a lot more powerful so please be careful. So, does that UV flashlight show up blood very well? I am thinking one one to help with tracking downed critters. |
