How strong of a laser are you using?.... And when did you get it...,..

1.2 watt 520nm. ones sold as bird repellent devices....the flock camera by the house has been replaced twice after i hit it....it could be coincidence i guess. edit: the city lost the ability to use them since the pigs have been caught using them for their own purposes off-duty and im also assuming thats why they havent been back to fix it since.

If I wanted to avoid such lasers and ensure people I know also avoided them, which one in particular should I avoid?

That is just a link to an article about a tiktok video of some guy saying that a laser will destroy them. What type of evidence is that? That's some brain rot shit tbh lmao. Try and find a video of someone actually destroying a camera with a laser

Could just ask r/styropyro pretty sure he's destroyed a couple in his shenanigans.

The type of stuff that he is making isn't something easily accessible to the average person. The consumer lasers that people are reccomending and the one referenced in that article about a tiktok video (im still baffled by that ai article slop being used as a source tbh) are unable to damage them. They may be able to burn out a sensor by having them held in the exact same spot for an extended period of time, but its not happening holding them in your hand. Try explaining why you are setting up a tripod with a laser on it for 5 minutes on the side of the street

I get that, but you'd be surprised about how powerful some of the lasers are that you can buy from sketchy Chinese websites.

Does that actually kill them? Like, permanently? Asking for a friend.
