How to Choose a Perfect Laser Pointer?

With the prevalence of laser pointer, people who want to buy lasers may feel confused about choosing a wonderful one. In fact, laser pointers have many categories according to beam color, output power, laser class, applications and so on. Thus, the difficulty of choosing a perfect laser has been greatly added.


Green, red and blue laser pointers are the most popular and usual device in the laser world. It is a truth that they have taken up the most market share and I dare to say that at least 90% people would select one from the three categories. Green laser pointer is relatively cheap compared to red and blue ones with the same output power. That’s because the green laser technology is quite matured and manufacturers can produce high quality green laser pointers at low cost.

People with different purposes and intentions would choose different laser pointers. If they were professional people like astronomy professors, military armies, scientists or doctors, then high power laser pointers are more appropriate and they’d better to purchase special lasers such as astronomy lasers and military lasers. Besides, powerful laser pointers are necessary for people who want to carry on burning and thermal experiments. On the other hand, a laser with 5mW is already enough for those people who want to just have fun with the pets for the sake of their safety.

There are several differences between green lasers and red lasers. Green laser pointer is brighter than a red one under the same circumstance with the same output power. That’s because human beings are most sensitive to the green color. Therefore, people who often carry out outdoor activities should choose green laser pointer for pointing and guidance. On the contrary, red laser pointer is often used for indoor long distance pointing, such as business meeting and teaching presentations. What’s more, low power red lasers are wonderful choices to avoid injuries and harm and hurts for human eyes.

Many online laser stores are available with the development of economy and laser technology, and choosing a reputable and reliable laser seller is quite important no matter what kind of laser will you choose.
