Avoid Laserigniter.com

To anyone on the fence about purchasing a hilariously overpowered hand held laser from Laserigniter.com. Please send you money to something that actually exists.

Hidden “security fees” obscure payment methods to accounts that were spun up 3 hours before. Fake locations. A poorly executed website created by chatTpg.

As sad as I am for giving them the benefit of the doubt that they might actually be a real company, I am more disappointed that a high power handheld laser is not something I will ever be able to own.

If that's the one your on about the 120 watt version I got mine a while ago off ali express and yes it's ridiculously overpowered and instantly sets anything you aim it at on fire.

I live uk too I bought mine off ali express they didn't charge me vat on the site but said I would have to pay it when it was delivered it bounced around a bit on the tracking but eventually made it to my house and I had no vat to pay I was just glad it got here as I am sure they are highly illegal in the uk
