A pair of connections is needed for a circuit.

Between points with a low voltage difference between them, direct current flow can be controlled by a switch.
 are said to provide flexibility for positioning it on a crowded shop floor.

This product is part of a new generation of laser markers that eliminate costly flash lamps. Solid-state, diode-pumped units are said to use energy much more efficiently and last 20 times longer than older flash-pumped lasers.
