Homemade incinerator beam!

1000 yards is pretty far.

I have only tried it in the daytime, and the range isn't very far at all. One time, I was at work in the board room for a meeting, and still waiting for some people to arrive. So we played with the laser pointer and pointed it outside at cars driving by, but we couldn't even see the red dot.

Laser pointers are so cheap now! You can buy one for $1 at the dollar store. I remember when they first came out and I got the impression that only the very important top executives used them for presentations.
