BlissLights Laser Wand
I think we all know how much fun a laser pointer can be, but just picture how much fun it would be if you had a device that could make many laser points all at once.
I can only assume this was the idea behind creating the BlissLights Laser Wand. This uses what the company calls a “high diffraction efficiency digital holographic optical element”, which creates a shining starfield effect on any wall. Just think of it as a disco ball without the mirror ball or need of reflected light.
At first I wondered what to do with device, but these pictures to the left gave me some ideas. It certainly would liven up any party for younger people. As the ad says, you can “spin it, twist it, shake it” which makes it something like a kaleidoscope that everyone can see.
Not only will this entertain the young in the dark, but it might be entertaining for adults in the dark as well. I’m not going to go into any detail on that, just use your imagination for that one.
As for power, the BlissLights Laser Wand uses a CR2 battery for about 1,000 hours of usage. The price might be too expensive for peoples’ tastes at about $99.95.

Bruce, you are so right–one cool effect with any BlissLight is if you shine it outdoors on a foggy evening, you can see each one of the laser trajectories’ paths–it’s awesome! Another cool way to experience a BlissLight is by shining it against bushes and plants–makes the evening walk very entertaining as you’re burning off dinner.
If you’re a Burner, these will be especially popular on the Playa this year, and the next shipment will also feature a lanyard so it’ll be easy to keep track of your Laser Wand out on the Playa.
Be sure to stop by Bruce’s website (he caters to Burners) and see what all he’s got to offer: http://www.lasersandlights.com. Be sure to tell ‘em Bliss sent you.

The Laser Wand is just the latest in a series of Laser “Starfield” projectors for homes, landscaping, nightclubs and party scenes. They have been used for ambiance for adult scenes usually and the Laser Wand is becoming popular in dance clubs too. The laser itself will last thousands of hours but the battery is good for about 8 hours, just to clarify. Bruce @ http://www.lasersandlights.com
