My 3 cats love to chase the laser beam but the toys in the pet store don't hold up and the batteries wear out quickly. This product gets a work out several times a day and the batteries have yet to be replaced and we have already had it a month or so.

It's a simple laser pointer not much to say here. A big "Pro" for this device was that it uses AAA batteries, no worrying about finding those little watch batteries for replacements. It's dot is bright and batteries seem to last quite a while under normal office presentation use.

      Comments about Staples 500 Laser Pointer, Black:

      We bought this to use primarily to play with our cat. She loves to chase the "little red light". we had purchased a cat toy with a similar premise, but the batteries lasted only a couple weeks and replacements were going to cost almost $7.00. This laser pointer is so much fun and much more efficient:-)

        As soon as I picked up this laser, I could tell it was made of top quality materials. I shined it and was a bit disappointing. It is simply not that bright. My friend has one that was the same price from a different store and it is a bit brighter and of equal quality. If this laser cost less, I could understand. For the price paid, I expect more.

          • A:

            I have a slide advancing remote for PowerPoint (and some other presentation programs like ProPresenter) which has buttons on it for forward and reverse arrows. This product is just a light. So, no, it will not advance slides unless you have a light activated slide advancer you can zap with it (I do not think they exist) :-)
