Hi Everyone,
I've been in IT for a while and one dumb little thing that's been driving me nuts is trying to find decent laser pointers for our conference rooms. I'm just looking for a standard output red or green laser pointers. It seems like everything that I've bought in the last few years from Amazon/Newegg/OfficeMax have been garbage. The switches are intermittent or the laser diodes fluctuate in brightness or die all together after a few months of light use. The last ones that I got were green ones by Meade (the telescope people) and they have the same problems.
The only thing that has worked well is the red laser build in to a Logitech presenter. But that's unnecessarily expensive and complex.
I just want the most basic laser pointer. Pen shaped with a button. No pen or stylus function. Just stick a couple AA or AAA's in it, push the button and have it work.
If you know of a good brand or source, please let me know.
Thanks,
Ben
