www.betapointer.com/ has a 5mw one (as opposed to 3-5) costs a bit more though. Thats there I got mine and I think John Flennery too.

This company;

www.wickedlasers.com/products.php?var=ok

Sells modified 5mW lasers, up to a power of 50mW :shock: (Range of 20 miles)

They say the high-power ones are 'perfect for bird control' - I suppose if you want to incinerate every bird withing a 20 mile radius.... :lol:

Everyone in Ireland buys Meade, and they all buy them from Lidl.

50mW!! :) I'd love to get my hands on one of them!

I can just see the headlines now:
