It is legal to build, own and use. Just not in public. The first time you cause damage to someone or someone's property you are legally, and/or criminally liable.
Hey! Great way to burn out the receiver in a cop's laser driven speed measuring instrument.
I am going to build both the laser, as well as the flashlight. I'll put the flashlight on my bike for a headlight.
Long time, no see AL! Nice to know that you are still around.
How did your eotvos experiment go? Get good results?
More powerful than ANY laser pointer of the class that IS legal.
I am quite sure it is maxed out as well, and will have a very short lifespan in that set-up. Still, far more dangerous than anything you can buy for that money. Most start at hundreds of dollars.
Explosives are easy. Implementation is the bitch.
I like the Saturday Night Live skit "He blowed up R E A L good!
They blow up old bands from the seventies.
Idiot. GPS receivers get their time cues from GPS satellites, which DO have atomic clocks.
You're a goddamned retard.
It would likely work even better if the lens section from a real laser pointer was placed in front of it.
A lot more than a simple laser pointer.
Did you even watch the video, idiot?
A locally proximal 50 kiloton nuke would likely "move" it.
DVD ones should be visible, but CD ones are not.
Some burners have lasers of more than 100mW so it might light a match if well focused, but probably not a candle I guess.

It's a Tipler laser!
Yeh sorry, I just don't buy it.
There are a number of US companies who sell green laser pointers that can burn.
That's because right along with you being a total mental midget, you are also a technological retard as well.
Except that the "high power" lasers they sell are NOT "laser pointers".
I always thought the DVD lasers were infrared ? The pinout of a laser pointer is definitely not the one shown in the movie. The standard pinout includes amonitor diode. The movie thus likely is a scam.

It's not. There are other websites with the same info.
(dipshit!)

mmm 500$ for the same thing (a 16x DVD burner is < 50$). ? Not a good deal.

You opinion is added to the round bin. CD player started IR. DVD has red laser (higher frequency shorter wavelength, more data), and these days we have Blu-Ray (so blue laser, even shorter wavelength, even more data).
Will he have UV players? maybe.

Sure, a $50 DVD burner and $450 worth of precision shop work. Once I used to try simple assembly tasks like that, and found them extremely dificult for the amateur, and typically unreliable if not done by a skilled professional.
