Are lasers safe?
Posted on: 14.12.2011 by Maribel Kyles
Hi, I have a double blue 150 mw laser (150 mw each) ... other DJs tell me its safe 2 aim into my crowd; and I've been to plenty of events where this is happening ... but is this something I can do safely as the DJ in charge of lighting fx??

Just be careful that you don't harm anyone with it especially direct to the eye.
Thanx, but when the beams are always moving and broken up into fan effects, are they safe; is that how DJs get away with aiming them at the dance floor or at a DJ Tiesto concert I went to there were tons of high powered lasers (much more than my measly 150mw) scanning the audience?

I would be careful though, why do you believe every space movie the badguy uses a laser hahaha
I did google it ... there's mostly divergent opinions; so I wanted to know what DJs believe and how they di it (almost every club I go to has the laser pointed at the dance floor)
