Anyone can buy a 1000 mW laser for about $100 now. More powerful ones cost a bit more but not too much. Given much lower power ones can cause serious retinal damage, that’s more than kind of scary. Reference regarding dangers: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/can-a-pocket-laser-damage/ (not a perfect article but makes the point).

I thought anything over 5 mWatt was illegal.
