I have TD-BP-120 SKU 1443100 and it does burn wood at close range. It can certainly light matches and cut through black plastic bags. However the blue beam is not very well focused and does spread a bit with distance. Not sure how far it can burn stuff - probably not much.

there is a 'review' on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tys9MlM-cfk

Be careful though with yourself and others... use appropriate eye protections with this kind of power.

hehe. purty lights.

I have a few and I haven't found any practical purpose for them yet. It's a hobby really. If I did find a purpose for them I'm sure it would get me in trouble. There's a reason they regulate them and that's probably why I bought them.

At no point in Trump's rambling, incoherent 1 term presidency was there anything close to what could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in the country is now dumber for having experienced it.

The violet color really can't be seen by anyone other than being behind the light source looking at the point of contact in a clear environment.. If stealth was needed then this is the color to use.. Green is the best color for side viewing.. Red is in the middle..

Indeed, but you can burn matches, pop balloons, light fireworks and light cigarettes much more easily and cheaply with a cigarette lighter.
