I know the Fallout 3 laser rifle model has a safety warning that states a 'Class 6' danger, and the modern safety rating only goes up to class 4 (500 mW or greater). For some comparison, a heavy duty milling laser can be 1-3 kW, and can cut through considerably thick metal plates with ease. There is a dramatic difference in a laser pistol/rifle with a power of 1 kW versus 1 MW.
Would anyone care to sound off on what they believe to be the Wattage of laser weaponry in Fallout canon?
