I am thinking of buying a laser for some summer public star parties I will be hosting. I am considering the 15mw Wicked Laser. Somewhere in the back of my mind I remember someone saying that lasers over 5mw were not really legal. Did I dream this? Is there any legal/ethical reason I should not buy a 15mw laser? I will use it for pointing out constellations at public star parties (not to harass astrophotographers)! This may have been extensively discussed, but if so, I missed it!


Thanks,
