Funny you mention Dr. Allen as this was one of his projects. :Q

 
works fine for me in opera. if you could get multiple ones and tie them together, here comes a new weapon. ofcourse tinfoil or a similar material will reflect it.

I've actually seen this happen with an xbox. The laser melted the game cd, and went on to melt the plastic cover of the console. Crazy, huh?

How did the X-Box's DVD-ROM (read only) laser melt anything?

Obviously the laser had too much power, just because it's read only, doesn't mean it can't become a burner.

With a 5.6mm can packaged diode, this is just not possible. Even if it were a class IIIb device found in a burner. See my post above.
