We got one of these, and it stopped working after a few hours. No drops, nothing happened to it, battery change did not fix. Optics Planet replaced the item no problem, but the second one did the same thing! Just stopped working after a few hours. Again a new battery did not fix it.
Cons:
- Unreliable
- Short lifespan
Would recommend: No

Fantastic unit, very high quality. Only reason I docked a star is because it's not 532nm as advertised. Most people won't notice the difference, it's still a green laser, but I just wanted to let any laser enthusiasts know before buying. The model number I received is GB50-A instead of GB50.
Pros:
- High quality
- Built like a tank
- AA Batteries
- satistfying clicky tail switch
- constant-on operation
- high visibility green
- 5mW as advertised
Cons:
- wavelength not as advertised
- feels like type II anodizing, not type III
Best Used for:
- camping
- Diving
- daytime pointing in the field
Would recommend: Yes

It's bright, feels well built, I like the case but the fit is a little tight. Good battery life. Not the most powerful, but for the price it's a good value. Love that it's waterproof. Battery life seems to be good. Not too heavy but it is dense. I recommend this product.

I was looking for a bright laser, but, I didn't want to go the cheap route. When I saw the lasers on this company's website I thought this was gonna be a great choice for what I wanted. A robust dependable laser that wasn't some cheap junk.
While I was very impressed with the size and strength of the metal housing. I was very underwhelmed by the strength of the laser. I was expecting something very strong and very bright. Something where you could clearly see the beam (especially at night). This laser was about 1/10 the strength of a laser pointer you can get for three dollars from China.
Also, the beam had a lot of spillage on side. It would look like someone was shining a green flashlight to one side.
I sent it back right away for a refund. I'm gonna keep looking and shopping around 'till I find what I'm looking for.
Would recommend: No

Ordered this and within about 3 days the battery connection was intermittent to unusable. Wasn’t a AA battery issue. Upon looking closer, the spring for the battery seemed to have been installed poorly and was sideways (never dropped by me) causing the poor connection. Had to stuff it with aluminum foil to hold a connection to the AA battery. Now it works again
Cons:
- Battery plate location
- battery plate
Would recommend: No

I've got a Beamshot weapon light that I've had for years. I needed a good pointer for work. So i bought this one. Started out great. Then became intermittent. Now, doesn't work at all. I didn't beat it up. It still looks almost new. And, no, it's not the batteries. I wish it was. Now I have to find something to replace it with.
Pros:
- Nice size
- Seemingly well made
Would recommend: No

Stinks to high he!! Other products I have bought and some never shipped claiming it was on back order! Pushed for months !!!!!! Trash!

I use this to align sheaves and pulleys versus a Johnson alignment tool that 1000 bucks and it does an amazing job. Green beam is ultra visible in the dark and the body of the laser lays perfectly in the throat of any commercial or industrial sheave. I am really impressed with the carrying case and the tool is flat out quality!!!
