The laser beam does not focus to a point. There are no instructions for use. The electrical insulation is not adequate and the product is not earthed which could lead to a risk of electric shock.The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standards EN 60335 and EN 60825-1 (the latter with respect to the provision of safety information).",
