I'm very pleasantly surprised! Have this laser pointer already almost three months, and have at the outset determined how intensely it shines. Got myself in to him play extensively with my kitty. The beam can be seen at a distance of about 20 m still very close attention to any surface. My cat has a lot of fun to chase this red dot behind and I can conduct problems over longer distances. The best thing about this product is that in my opinion looong life. Even after frequent-usage and long phases of play of laser pointers almost three months after the purchase lights still without that I once had to change the batery so intense. Expected in the luminosity otherwise. However, in this product also extremely careful that you do not light up in his eyes. Because I think it's again very well that a clearly visible and conspicuous warning attached to the unit, which makes a always attentive. In my opinion, a good product! However, bacteria are not in it. However, since the AAA bacteria are easily and conveniently available anywhere that is not a problem.
