Handling a Keychain Laser Pointer - 3 Things You Must Avoid Doing

Whether you are a young adult or a business professional, getting a keychain laser pointer has many applications and can be very beneficial at times. Depending on the type you get, there are some that are extremely high powered and can cause severe eye damage. Here are 3 things you must avoid doing when handling a keychain laser pointer.

1. Never directly look at the laser

While it is safe to view the laser when it is pointed on a wall or on the floor, you should never directly point the laser at your eyes as it can results in your reversible eye damage. In fact, many eye related injuries have resulted from people simply not knowing any better.

2. Never point the laser at others

Just as you wouldn't want to look directly in the laser, you should never intentionally point a laser at another individual. The last thing you want is slipping up and accidentally beaming the laser in someone's eyes which can result in serious consequences.

3. Do not modify the laser

If you want a stronger keychain laser pointer, then simply spend a little extra money on a better one instead of modifying it. In fact, many laser devices are not designed to be modified and doing so may cause damage to the lens or to the optics.

These are just some of the things that you should be careful of when handling a keychain laser pointer. Be especially careful around children as it is easy for them to unintentionally point the laser at their eyes or someone else's.

EyeClops Night Vision Infrared Goggles are just that - night vision goggles. Using infrared technology they allow you to see in the dark so you can live out your fantasy of being an undercover CIA agent. Like a viewfinder on a camcorder, the right goggle is linked to an LCD display monocle. The left goggle, which is plastic, can be flipped up to allow you to see when the device is switched off - although you'll presumably be in the dark at the time, which maybe defeats the purpose. ...
