Lazer Pointer....

[Colin Bashford]

Sherrill laser pointer is listed as a Day pointer and is $67. Mine is absolutely brilliant and in constant use, even in bright sunlight.

Sounds like a powerfull one was that from ebay?

 

I've got a little red one goes on my keyring and has a led light aswell only cost about £2.50 I think from ebay.

 

Dunno if its any good for pointing at trees but I doubt it, will have a go tomorrow if I'm not snowed in

Sounds like theres a bit of variation in quality of pointers. I think i was lucky as the one i got appears to be the same as buxtons and sherrills but only cost a fraction of those.

 

Anyway, took a piccy of the dot of mine at about 25meters away in good daylight. Hopefully you can see the dot on the fence:blushing:

I have got to get one of these!! Went out to look at a job this afternoon, and one tree was a takedown, but three were reductions- would have been soooo useful!!

Got myself one of these from scaryBay a couple of weeks back after getting hacked off pointing into trees when with a customer. You know when the conversation goes "yeh, that branch with the small twigs on it":mad1:

Great little thing, should have had one years ago. Only downside i found so far is, operating temp is 15-35 deg C. Still works at low temp but not as bright, soon warms up in your hand though.

 

 

Agreed. A tenner on Fleabay: can see the dot up an oak tree that's 30m away through the dining room window in daylight. And if you don't like it.... put it back on ebay!

Also dont point it at passing military jets, they will automatically lock on to you as a legitimate target and you may get toasted!

 

Apparently they've taken gullible out of the English dictionary.

[Lancstree]

Can anyone recommend a good one then? It seems there's a lot of variation in reliability, price and legality.

[TheTreeWiseMen]

One like this?

[Paul Smith]

Very similar to mine only mines crap!
