⚠️ Risk
The product poses a serious risk of damage to sight because :- the laser radiation measured at the output aperture of the laser pointer showed a maximum power of 1.40 mW. The measured P value is lower than the maximum admissible power for lasers of class IIIA, but exceeds the maximum admissible power for lasers of class II. Therefore, the laser pointer is a laser system of class IIIA; - the corpus of the laser pointer has a marking with warning and information sticker indicating the main technical characteristics and the class, which did not comply with the real class of the laser pointer;- no safety working instructions are printed on the package of the laser pointer and there is no warning that laser pointers should not be used by children. The instructions to the laser pointer should be supplemented with a warning to avoid direct looking into the laser beam or its mirror reflection, unless wearing protective glasses, as well as to avoid directing the laser beam to bare eyes.
