- jacquesm 1y agoI have this 35 Watt laser I scored off aliexpress, it runs off 24V. I wonder...
- gadders 1y agoI did always wonder if the sort of green laser pointer that could light matches would wreck the sensors. The biggest use of these cameras in the UK is in car parks so that predatory parking companies can fine you £60 for going a nano-second over the time you paid for.

- anon_cow1111 1y agoFor anyone who's actually wondering about this, 100-200mw is extremely damaging to camera sensors(also eyes) and doesn't cause birds to burst into flames from a stray reflection. Most cheap pen-size laser pointers sold as "5mw" are actually 100+. As a general rule, if you can see the beam brightly when doing star pointing it's somewhere in this range (but if Parent's laser is one of those sealed-tube Co2 lasers, it'll never touch the camera sensor itself because the beam doesn't go through glass. Might crack it after a couple seconds though)
- jacquesm 1y agoIt's a green stacked diode laser. Collimation is poor but at a couple of meters any kind of sensor will be slag in a few seconds.
