One of these might be handy to wake up the bridge of a ship on a
steady vector, that you are not sure they see you, and they fail to
answer the VHF.

80,000 ft range. Might not be legal, but hey, neither is running
down
people.


Wimp! I've got one of these on
order:http://www.dailynews.com/ci_5572205?source=rss

Since Jeffs laser cost over a billion dollars, and your selection is
3.5 million I will stick with the 185 dollar laser that will do the
job without killing everyone in the ships wheelhouse.



I have better price/performance!
