Wicked Lasers Hands-on Review
|
I'm sure everyone has seen laser pointers being used sometime in their life. I’m sure you have seen those red lasers flying around everywhere during concerts or shows. Those laser pointers can not compete with what Wicked Lasers offers. geekBlue was able to play around and test one of Wicked's middle class lasers for a week and we have to say that it is a top notch product. The quality of the laser as well as the hardware out performs anything else on the market. We must state that if you own one or will purchase one soon to be careful and follow all safety instructions before use. These lasers are not toys and can be harmful if misused. Other than that have fun. Read more for the full review or click here to go to product homepage. |
The laser that we have been testing is named the Nexus 95mW. The technical information is below. Name: Nexus 95mW
That’s right. You didn’t read it wrong. It has a distance range of 38 miles! Now for our test purposes, we were unable to test that range out but for hitting houses and trees over a mile away it was amazing. The green laser, that Wicked Lasers provides, is extremely powerful. These red glasses are needed to prevent eye damage if any of the laser comes in direct contact with your eyes. You can see from the images that the laser can be seen clearly even in light.
The outer casing of this model is very durable. Every item Wicked Lasers produces uses this same metal with high quality lasers. The small pen design is not any larger than your business laser pointers used for presentations. To find lasers this powerful with so much portability is hard. If you are using them for scientific testing purposes, you will definitely love the design.
The life of this model is built to last up to 5000 hours of laser use. Dropping or misuse of the product is not recommended. They say battery life for this product is two hours but considering you are only using two triple A batteries then that is really good. Normal batteries for portable DVD players don’t usually last that long. However I don’t recommend using it for two hours straight unless you are doing scientific testing. Wicked Lasers recommend letting the laser rest every minute and a half to prevent over heating.
Overall this product is amazing. The power for the price is unbelievable. If you want to check out more of Wicked Lasers products or read up on the model we tested please visit the links below. |
