Hi Eric,

just in general:

If you have various layers and feel it gets too bright where they are overlapping, 

sometimes it helps to play with different blending modes.

Also, for the animation of your laser lights, check out this tutorial of mine:

Cheers,

Mathias

Jim,

I think the generate/beam is THE answer!  Thanks man!  That is working precisely how I needed.

Appreciate it.
