Ever since the advent of Star Wars I’ve always been fascinated with lasers. And for a long time lasers simply stayed in my sci-fi fantasy because they’re either unreal or just way too expensive for me to fool with. Until now that is, when as a side-effect of owning a tech blog, I received a package from Wicked Lasers containing their most powerful Spyder II GX. While it’s no laser gun it definitely is no ordinary laser pointer either. With it you can shoot stars, point at passing planes (note: it’s illegal and highly NOT RECOMMENDED unless you want to end up in jail), and light up cigarettes. There’s of course a plethora more of stuff you can do with this baby, for which you can get more ideas from the laser community. But in order to feel the real power of this laser you really have to ignore our words and just check it out on your own, if you have $1,699 lying around for a piece of cool toy that is.
