There are many colors of laser pointer available for purchase, red, red/orange, green, blue and yellow. Of these green appears the brightest at the moment! The human eye is more sensitive to the colors in the lower part of the spectrum and green being one of them it will appear brighter than red for instance. I believe there is also blue or violet now available and I would imagine this is also quite bright, being in the lower spectrum range. You will find that a 5mW green laser pointer with a wavelength of 533nm will appear significantly brighter than a red 5mW at 640nm. Output is measured in nanometers [nm] along with mW. A monometer is equal to one billionth of a meter for those of you who like all the facts. There is another measurement, i.e. beam divergence, measured in mill radians or mRad. This means the difference between a beam that stays the same no matter how far it goes will be designated as 0 mRad whilst another pointer which has positive mRad and has a beam that measures about 1 inch at 5 meters but has increased to 3 inches at about 100 meters distance. What you want in your pointer is a beam divergence where the beam diameter only increases slowly with distance. Wikipedia defines a laser pointer as a small laser which has been designed to project a small colored light onto something of interest. It would be wonderful if it was only used in such a sensible way, but unfortunately there will always be some who will bring anything into disrepute by abusing it. It is such a shame that people who enjoy something like a laser pointer having to be tarred with the same brush as idiots who point their beams at cars or aircraft. I would imagine this is precisely why a lot of countries have actually banned the sale of anything above a class 2, i.e. between 1-5mW just because if the misuse and possible danger. Don't forget terrorists use these lasers to pinpoint something they want to destroy. No wonder governments are worried about them and why you can get yourself into a lot of trouble with the authorities if you point your beam indiscriminately where you shouldn't! Have fun with your laser, burst balloons, light matches etc. If you bought one with a patterned cap which shows consolations from the sky you could enjoy those within your home. Imagine your ceiling and walls looking like the inside of a planetarium. This is the sort of thing you should be doing with your laser not blinding a pilot as he is coming into land with perhaps hundreds of people in his care. Be responsible and don't spoil things for all the others who enjoy their laser pointers. Clone electronics manufacturers and suppliers have already realized the potential chance to make money by producing Apple electronics-alike products, especially Apple multi-touch cell phones. Besides, they also clone Apple accessories like skins, cases, adapters, cables, and so on. Apple is always a leader in the electronics development.
