How many mW is a green laser?
5 mW
Green laser pointers can come in a variety of different output powers. The 5 mW green laser pointers (classes II and IIIa) are the safest to use, and anything more powerful is usually not necessary for pointing purposes, since the beam is still visible in dark lighting conditions.
What mW laser will blind you?
Laser pointers can put out anywhere between 1 and 5 milliwatts of power, which is enough to damage the retina after 10 seconds of exposure. This can lead to permanent vision loss. That said, it can be very difficult to expose the retina to that much light for that long a time.
What is a class3 laser?
Class 3 lasers are medium power lasers or laser systems that require control measures to prevent viewing of the direct beam. Control measures emphasize preventing exposure of the eye to the primary or specularly reflected beam.
How far does 5mW laser go?
How far can a 5mW green laser go? For my 5mw green; the green spot at ~260 meters is FAIRLY visible. For a ~3mw red, I CAN find it at ~60 meters, but for the ~260 meter target, the ~3mw red is VERY DIFFICULT to even find… it becomes VERY DIM.
Can a 50 mW laser blind you?
Considering visible laser (e.g. red He-Ne laser), below about 50 mW you can close your eyes quickly enough that the energy absorbed is insufficient to cause permanent eye damage. If you intentionally stare into it, or the laser is invisible and does not trigger the eye reflex, a much weaker laser can blind you.
Can a 1 mW laser damage your eyes?
No individual, regardless of exposure conditions to the eyes or skin, would be expected to be injured by a Class 1 laser.
Is it illegal to own a Class 3 laser?
Class IIIb lasers cannot legally be promoted as laser pointers or demonstration laser products. Higher powered Class IIIb or IEC Class 3B lasers are dangerous and can cause either temporary visual effects or an eye injury.
How far can a 10mW green laser go?

How many milliwatts does a green laser need?
While green laser light at <5 mW (less than 5 milliwatts) is considered eye safe for momentary exposure, it takes as much as 300 mW of invisible IR (infrared) light to produce this. An IR filter is crucial in order to protect your eyes, as it prevents the IR light from escaping along with the green light.
What kind of power does a green laser pointer have?
This 3000mw Green Laser Pointer is the popular 3W laser among outdoor enthusiasts since its IP68 standard (can still work normally under 3m deep water). Housed in a beautifully styled aircraft grade alloy, has to be seen to be believed. Benefit from its 3 Watt output power, it can pop balloons and light matches instantly.
What’s the stability of a CW green laser?
Ultra-stable CW green laser, laser output stability 0.5% and 0.25% over 24 hours, is available now. Compact Q-switched Green lasers at 532 nm, 523 nm, 527 nm, 542 nm, 555 nm and 561 nm are available now.
What can you do with a green laser?
Up to 250 mW, single longitudinal mode, 532 nm green laser with more than 300 meters coherence length is suitable for holography, interferometry and laser Raman applications. The green laser is easy to use, plug and play, no cooling fan, no cooling water required, no noise and no vibration during laser operation.
