Gadgetell Hands On: The Laser Edition

I recently had the opportunity to play with not one but two very cool lasers, getting some hands on with an Elite Series laser from Wicked Lasers and a Viper Series laser from Dragon Lasers.

Product: Wicked LasersModel: Elite SeriesPrice: $499.99 through $699.99

Product: Dragon LaserModel: Viper SeriesPrice: $99.99 through $399.99

The Viper series and Elite series are the two models that I had to review play with, however both companies offer lasers starting at at $100 or less.

Aside from playing around and amazing my friends with just how far they will shine, lasers can be very useful. They can be used by astronomers to point out stars, builders or contractors, doctors, spooks and spies, someone lost in a remote location and even to ward off your enemy or an intruder. After all if it was dark and I broke into a house to have a laser hit me in the chest, its safe to say I would turn around and run the way I came.
