Gizmodo Exclusive: Wicked Lasers Spyder II Hands-On Review - Gizmodo:
My wife is curious.
"So what do you do with it?"
"It's a laser."
"Right..."
"Very powerful, and fits in your hand."
"So, you can use it giving presentations and stuff."

"So what do you do with it?"
"...pop balloons..."
I am not a laser expert, unless you count watching Real Genius five times as any sort of real world schooling. Sure, I've done my fair share of field-testing with a magnifying glass and the sun, but tagging a massive green dot on a building from 100 yards away is a different beast entirely. I'm just a simple guy who wanted to hold what may be the most powerful consumer laser in the world - and burn something with it.
