    Really? I have a 5W green laser pointer that I think might work well for this then…

      A 5W laser would disable most things you point it at

        Well I know what I’m doing in a night or two (I want to make sure there aren’t a ton of other people around because of reflection).

        Are we talking it ruining the camera sensor in seconds? This is exciting.

          I think they are joking about the 5w part, as that’s an incredibly powerful laser then. Its likely you have the number wrong?
