Are these burning lasers cause those are badass

Any laser can be a "burning laser" given the proper lense and output.

These things are an incredible way to end up in jail or blind. Less than 1 second direct exposure to a 1w blue laser without proper eye protection can render someone permanently blind. To me, they're cool as hell, but I wouldn't want to risk having one around. It would be difficult for a child to tell the difference between that and an innocent flashlight.

On some models, yes, but catch a nice reflection off a piece of glass, mirror, etc, and even if its not a perfect reflection like a mirror, your vision can still be damaged.

Next time I need to pop 100 balloons that are lined up in a straight line I know what to use. That question had been bothering me for some time.

Build your own. My buddy has made a bunch of these, plans and components are online. My friend puts his in a Star Trek phaser housing, yes he's that kind of guy.

So what is the big deal with pointing laser pointers at airplanes anyway?

Irving, they're is a good chance the laser will cause eye damage to the pilots. I know quite a few guys who've been hit and a couple that've suffered permanent eye damage. This almost always occurs on landing. And it's a federal offense.

So people just hangout by the runway and shine planes with lasers?
