I bought a small keychain laser at the dollar store. With the purpose of putting it to these welding googles (I play in an industrial band). I have seen it before and it looks cool having it comming out an eye into the fog (from a fog machine)
Ok, so my problem was, I took it apart, the laser mechanism from the small cilinder, exposing what seems to be a circuit. Now I add the batteries but it won't work, I am not sure if the batteries died (they were already low the day I took it apart), or more important, is the little enclosing cylinder neccessary for the laser to work?
(Once I dispossed of the cylinder, everything else was on one piece, nothing missing.)
Another question, do you know if there is a risk of radiation direct to my eye, even tho the laser would not be directed towards it, but would be right on front of.?
