I have a good lamp and dry battery pack, the cost was closer to £200.00 and of course it is a damned sight heavier to carry about than this device would be. I'm told that the laser, due to the focus does not give peripheral light, and, therefore, doesnt scare anything either side of the beam. I dont have any experience of the laser hence the question and the boar in the video dont seem to notice the green light? Can foxes see the laser beam, indeed in the first video there is no beam showing just a circle of green light on the interviewers hand?
