the U.S. has a new law now where you can't buy >5mw lasers (IE anything that burns) so I bet you can't find one like your looking for anymore

the DX one you can see the beam at night. he only got a 5w one though. Maybe at a higher wattage it would be visible during the day as well.

you could probably order it from DX higher than 5W. they send lighters with fluid in them no problem :hifive:

the problem is that everthing that ships into the us, goes through customs, and the paper work must be filled out to send it through. when the customs dept reads that the incomming package contains a 30mw lazer, (banned in the us) it is going to get flagged. then the seller gets into trouble,

you may get lucky, but not many buisness owners are going to take that chance to send you a lazer they arnt making much money off in the first place.  you should really try ebay. I hate ebay, but sometimes it is a nesecary evil.

if you know someone over seas, you should send them money and get them to send it in and write it up as "game hardware" customs dont even open my packages. then if something comes up play dumb.

yea just label them as something completely irrelevant. Or, get some old cheap clothes, wrap the laser up in that, and label it as clothes.

Wrapping it in clothes wont do anything... The scan will go straight through it.. Best to use Tin foil, or lead ;)

DX labels the green lasers as LED Flashlights
