Can you see the laser in sunlight?

Yes, on pretty much any surface other than water. On most surfaces you can see it plainly up to 30 yards or so in bright sunlight. If you get a good unit it's probably worth the money. The led on my flashlight went out after about 30 seconds of use so I had to send it back for a refund. I didn't take a second chance. Save your $ and get a Surefire, LaserLyte, Viridian, Streamlight, Beamshot or similar product. Beamshot makes a really nice rechargeable unit w a lifetime guarantee for around $250. It's worth it. I have at least one of all of the products I mentioned and have had no problems and they all hold a zero...even mounted on a 12ga pump, 45ACP, or AK 47. Best wishes. Let me know if I can help you further. Ashley

I do not think the laser is bright enough for much outdoor use. It might work OK in lower light applications, maybe after dusk, but during sunlit hours it's not useful past a few feet. I just tested it outside on a relatively sunny day and outside of working in a very shaded area the light was not very visible. Overall I still think this is an awesome product (see my review for details) but its outdoor utility is limited. Hope this helps!

No....not visible to naked eye. Used in conjunction mainly with night vision equipment. Beam is a hot spot with a nice halo as with most LED lights. Excellent light and does a great job for me. I use it mounted above a rifle scope to shoot hogs at night with my night vision gear. Highly recommend this product. You will not be disappointed if you have an application for its use.

No it does not. You have the option of Red Laser, Light, or Laser, and Light.

A brighter laser maybe? This is their website: http://sitelite-lasers.com/product_SL100.html

Not that I have seen. I'll take one if you can find it. Also this is only good for an indoor range. Laser is lost in daylight. Maybe ok at dusk or dawn. Indoor is best.

Not sure of the question you are asking, but here goes. Being green, the laser is very bright. During night conditions, the beam could possibly be traced to a point of origin. However, it is not bright enough, or solid enough to be used in a "light show" on its own accord.

Once indoors the laser it works well, provided that there is not too much light in the room. too much of light obscure the laser light.

You generally won't see the laser, if you look carefully there is a TINY hair for a red light coming from the diode, you shouldn't look at it, because it is a laser, but you really have to try hard to see it, it's just like a very very tiny laser pointer light, but near impossible to see it shine on anything. They are completely different than optical mice, which typically use a red LED light, which will certainly be visible. If the laser did die, the mouse wouldn't jump at all, it wouldn't pick up any movement.

I'm not sure, but I am not very pleased with it, laser is barely visible in daytime, I have another laser that is 5mW and is much brighter than this

At night, I have played with the laser up to a mile away, but, in the daylight it is extremely weak, 20' max. If I were going to buy one now I would get the green laser.

The label states max output of <5 mW. As for the actual brightness in use, it is brighter than any comparable red laser I have seen in this class. None of them are that useful in bright sunlight, so I don't think it's fair to bag on this one for that shortcoming. I've yet to see a laser that was any good beyond 5 yards in bright sun.

In my opinion, it is better to go by sight than laser for several reasons. First, if you are working in the sun, it is often next to impossible to see the laser if the sunlight overpowers it. Second, if the laser and saw blade are not perfectly aligned, you may inadvertently incorrectly cut your material. Third, you need to know where your laser is aligned relative to your blade which will be different with each blade and whether you are cut is to the left or right side. Finally, if you are color blind, as am I, the laser line will appear to move. Although there are glasses to assist, I personally cannot see the line worth a darn. My advice is to skip the laser, get familiar with your saw so you know the proper location to mark your material, bring the saw blade down to your material before pulling the trigger to align your cut, make any small adjustments, re-check the alignment, be certain your hold hand is well clear of the blade and then pull the trigger.

It is not a real laser -- it is a red beam of light. And yes you can see where it hits the next piece. This is a fun game.

The laser will work on anything. Probably won't be very vissible in bright daylight though.

Yes. But you won't see the laser from that far. You should start about 25 yards where you can see the laser and move out from there.

If you have the knob in the on position, and you have the batteries in correctly, then yes, you'll see it just like a laser pointer. Look in and see if you can see a red glow without pointing it into you eye of course. If you see a red glow inside, but no laser pointing out, try adjusting the beam, it may be way off and pointing at the inside of itself. If all of the above is ok, and you don't see a red glow inside, then it is most likely defective.
