FWIW Harbor Frieght is now offering a "hi output laser pointer"
for 19.99 (half price). You can contact them at 1-800-423-2567.
As was mentioned previously, the majority of inexpensive pointers
of this type are made in China. Nevertheless it sure beats paying
34.95 + shipping and handling for only a laser module, with an
additional layout for battery, battery holder, case, etc.
