I have not had the chance to use the binoculars for the purpose I bought them (sports games), but I believe they will suit my purpose. They are light enough so I will be able to hold them for an extended period of time. I also bought one for my wife.

This is a great kit, the binoculars are ok, but the laser and led flashlight are the real bonus. Good starter kit, then you will want to upgrade to a telescope or higher power binocs.

The binoculars is very good but the green laser is not. It went off permanently after a very slight use. I need to have it replaced.

The laser in this kit isn't what I expected at all. It is very weak and cannot be used on clear nights- I couldn't see the beam at all even after dark.

As it turns out ANY <5Mw green laser pointer will not meet up to most peoples expectations, Celestron or not. The beam is mostly invisible UNLESS you are mostly directly behind it. The 60 second operation time per use is also not advertised up front. The binos and flashlight are okay for their price range.
