Wicked Lasers announces the fire-starting Torch

We had lots of fun with the lasers that we were able to play with recently, thanks to Wicked Lasers. Granted we really have no good use for them ourselves, but they are still fun to play with. The higher powered lasers were able to do some minimal damage in the form of lighting matches or popping a balloon, but Wicked Lasers has taken this to a new level with the introduction of their new Torch.
The Torch, according to Wicked Lasers is the “world’s brightest and most powerful flashlight” and has “4100 Lumens with an adjustable high efficiency reflector.” Given that, it does have some pretty amazing power with the ability to burn plastic, light paper or even fry and egg or toast a marshmallow.
Why you would want to toast a marshmallow with your flashlight is beyond me, but its nice to know you could. The Torch will retail for $299.99 and is currently available. The biggest drawback to the Torch is the battery life is a low 15 minutes. Check out the video’s they have posted demonstrating the power of the Torch.

Hmmm a $300 torch that only last 15 minutes and is too powerful to have any practical use other than talk about it. Can’t see myself getting one.
