Don’t listen to AmidFear@fedia.io your privacy is being illegally invaded and your every move tracked. Sanwu Lasers dot net. Get a 3w one with the focusing lens at the least. But you’ll need safety goggles to operate a 3w focused beam and anything higher. DO NOT shine these where they could intercept with a person.
Would I be right in thinking that viewing the beam alone isn’t damaging, but looking at the lens is? Presumably then, unintended viewing could be limited if not eliminated by shining it through a tube?
No one should be viewing any of it without goggles. It will damage your vision after just a few seconds of indirect exposure, direct exposure (pointing it at your eyes) will blind you.
Yes, with my 3w, I can use it periodically without goggles but I cannot look at the beam for more than a few seconds. A welding helmet will protect you completely. It does make it hard to use with precision at night tho.
Got tips for someone who just got a lot of flock in their neighborhood?

Glad to know I was quite wrong. Thank you for potentially saving my vision.
Not knowing much about lasers myself obviously, is a welding helmet be sufficient protection from indirect exposure?

Good to know, thank you.
Don’t commit vandalism on camera.
Golly gee, it’s like you guys think I’m going to be a public menace or something.
Yeah, don’t go vandalizing shit.
I would never! I’m simply asking how the woke antifa gays are doing it so I don’t accidentally order the exact thing they are.
You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.
