My LuckyDuck laser just arrived. Very nice! It came in a nifty padded travel case with a couple of AAA batteries so I was able to fire it up right away. I own two other green lasers, and this has the tightest beam of the lot. No funny blotches around the perimeter of the (killer bright) green dot and the beam seems rock steady. One of my other two green lasers' beam jumps around quite noticeably in brightness, and its sibling has a steady beam but is not especially bright. I'll try it out with the other lasers I own tonight for some informal brightness comparisons, but so far this one looks to be very bright. Thanks, Richard, for giving us the heads-up on this!
