You’d definitely need binos. At that distance it’s a different ballgame.
I can see a spot at 5km max with my 532nm. Without binos it’s just mashed up with the main beam.
My 400mW 532nm (measured about 1.6-1.8mRad) measured about 38 million cd, i had to do it at 45m in order not to overload the sensor. The sensor is a bit more sensitive at that wavelength but i am not sure how the conpensation curve looks like (what isotropic curve to the eyes or something). But yeah it can do 4km easily, 5km can do in clear conditions. At that distance, there is quite a bit of laser scattering going on already.
I haven’t measured my 100mW with a beam expander, which gives its a much better divergence at only 0.3mRad). It has higher beam intensity than the 400mW.
I sometimes use my 152mm refractor telescope at 32X mag as well (slightly over 4mm exit pupil, so more or less there as well for a somewhat dark adapted eye).
