Hey guy, i am glad you are interested in my video!
There have been many many threads on the web, starting out just like this one! they have been asking the same questions, and i am here just to make you you all know. you MUST WEAR EYE PROTECTION!!! AT ALL TIMES! and do not turn these lasers on with other people around, especially they are not educated of the dangers in these class IV lasers. I have the 1.2W waterproof laser from lazerer.com - its a beast! and all of the polyps i have fryed, have NOT shown back up, you need to take out the base.


here is the original video Link - http://youtu.be/Cbk7mA5PuAQ?hd=1

hah well thank you!

I must admit, you do have to have a steady hand to zap the pests.
But the 445nm (blue) laser diodes all need to be focused, so nothing around the area usually gets zapped, until you get a night tight dot on it.
This focusable diode makes it possible to pass through glass with minimal intensity loss. just watch out for the reflection, bc sometimes it can be on your hand, and you wont notice :)

Acrylic is still up for debate, but all personal experience in the additional videos done by tome, show no adverse effects, or scores on acrylic.

looks pretty cool but what about the ones you cant see? behind or under a rock? i would rather buy berghia and use that at the movies during previews.
