Compliance with FDA requirements
- Alpec is committed to providing the best quality laser pointers. All of our products meet FDA’s Class II or Class IIIA requirements. Class II laser pointers have a maximum power output of 1 mW. Class IIIA laser pointers have a maximum power output of 5 mW.
What is the difference between red and green laser pointers?
- The human eye can see green color from a greater distance than any other color in the visible light spectrum. Green laser pointers have a visible range up to a mile, even in the dark or low light conditions. Therefore red laser pointers have a visible range of up to 1,500 feet. Even though both the red and green laser pointers have a maximum output of either 1 mW or 5 mW the green laser pointers can be seen farther than red laser pointers when using it indoors or outdoors.
How to care for your Alpec laser pointer
- Store the laser pointer in a cool, dry place.
- We do not recommend exposing laser pointer to temperatures below freezing or over 110°C.
- We recommend removing the batteries if the laser pointer will not be used for extended periods.
- Water and laser pointers do not mix – never submerge a laser pointer in water or expose to moisture (don’t put it in your mouth, spill coffee on it, et cetera).· Be kind to your laser pointer. Do not drop or apply impact. This can cause the lens to blur and/or damage the laser diode or circuit.
Can I use my Alpec laser pointer on an LED screen or TV screen?
- Yes. An LED screen’s brightness, coupled with its built-in technology to swallow any ambient lighting presents a unique challenge for the use of laser pointers. To successfully point with an Alpec laser pointer on an LED screen, we recommend:
  - Point with a green laser pointer instead of a red laser pointer. Green pointers are 30 times more visible to the human eye and their built-in technology makes them more visible on most LED screens. Green doesn’t always solve the problem entirely, but you should notice a visible difference between green and red.
  - Try toggling down or off the overall brightness on the screen you are using with your pointer. With so many TV models on the market, you won’t know how it will work until you try.· If the above does not work, reach out to our customer service at 800-854-6686.
