Laser that makes dot instead of line

I bought a “LASER DIODE 650NM 20MW 10MM DIA” but the laser makes a line and I want a laser that makes a dot.

The laser makes a line like this:

But what I want is it to make a dot like this:

Dot

  1. Can I remove what looks like a filter on the laser that is making it into a line? There’s no way to remove the filter without breaking whatever it is with pliers.

  1. How can I find lasers on the site that make a dot vs a line? There’s nothing in the description (LASER DIODE 650NM 20MW 10MM DIA) of the laser that indicated to me that it would make a line.

Thanks!

We do not carry any dot lasers at that wavelength and power rating. We have some, but they either have a different wavelength or a different wattage. Unfortunately at this time we cannot filter by shape of the output so you will need to read the datasheet to find out if each laser is a dot, line, or another shape.
