I wonder how well it would clean up a brass steamer?

On sale for only $168. You can spend more than that on an ultrasonic cleaner. I never heard of rust removal or cleaning using lasers before. I have no idea how it would work on brass models. Would it burn off those coats of clear lacquer or brass colored lacquer? Or would it make a sticky mess?

It says 1000 watt laser, then it says the control unit is 20-100 watts. SO which is it? That's an entire order of magnitude difference there. Also, I cannot believe shooting 1000 watt laser at your hand does no damage.
If it works though - sure would make an easy job of cleaning all my wrought iron that needs to be painted - not only do I have a railing up two flights of stairs with a landing, but surrounding my entire front porch as well, with complicated decorative sections for vertical supports for the porch roof. Going to be a LOT of wire brushing to clean all that.

When we use external medical lasers, everyone has to wear eye protection including the patient, that is specific to the wavelength of the laser. Pilots can be temporarily blinded by pen lasers a couple thousand feet away. I see a tragedy waiting to happen.

Eh, that's true of, like, every tool though.
I was once at Goddard Space Flight Center doing a walkthrough on a bunch of the projects in development when ICESat-2 was test firing the lasers in the ATLAS instrument. No one was allowed the lab, even with PPE, while they were firing.
