What is the danger
This product poses a risk of damage to sight because the label states that it is a Class 3A laser, which could present a risk not only to the user but also to others, even at a considerable distance. Prolonged exposure to moderate levels of laser light can cause irreversible changes to the eye, in particular to the retina and lens. In addition, the product is labelled incorrectly because there are no instructions for use or safety instructions. This product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 60865.
