    Because crap cheap lasers cost little money?

    Serious RGB lasers (2W+) from a good manufacturer still cost at least 10.000 ........

    Flightcase included means even less money for the lasers themselve..

    Just search the forum for "laserworld" and you'll see.

    Problems with cheap RGB? Alignment is with most lasers just very, very bad, adjusting is a big problem (mirror/dichromounts are crap). Laser-modules have less power then advertised or loose power quite soon, lasers don't run stable (temperature problems or just lots of jellybeaning).
