Below table will dispay the information about The relationship between the power,brightness and working disance.

It will help you choose the right power for your sepcial case.

Output power	Brightness Level	Best Working distance	Description
<5mw	Micro Light	< 0.5 meter	1. In less than 0.5 meters. 2. Under the weak light environment. You can see the laser beam.
<10mw	Low Light	< 1 meter	1. In less than 1 meters. 2. Under the weak light environment. You can see the laser beam.
<100mw	Middle Light	< 3 meters	1. In less than 3 meters. 2. Under 8 fluorescent lights environment. You can see the laser beam.
<200mw	High Light	< 5 meters	1. In less than 5 meters. 2. Under 30 fluorescent lights environment. You can see the laser beam.
>250mw	Ultra-high Light	< 8 meters	1. In less than 8 meters. 2. In good light,under unlight scattering environment. You can see the laser beam.(Direct sunlight, unavailable)
