I really want the 612nm but thats a lot of dough

 

[Ricker]

Wow that's beautiful but quite expensive. Why does Orange have to be my favorite laze??

 

[Ears and Eggs]

Yeah, that 612nm looks absolutely epic. A bit outside my budget unfortunately. Hopefully someone here gets it so we at least get to see some pictures later on.

Melles Griot 35-IMA-830-012 Air Cooled Argon Ion Laser w/ power supply and cable | eBay

This is a class 3B laser capable of around 40mW of output power. It appears to max out around 40mW of 488nm (cyan) laser light. That is normal. Be sure to open up the beam shutter on the front of the laser head if you are not getting any light output.

5 line argon anyone?

 

[ZRaffleticket]

Is that 50,000 hours on that head? I was tempted until I saw that

 

[Gryphon]

That what I’m assuming it is too, it must have been running since the dawn of the universe. But it’s still running!

 

[Encap]

A 40mW, 488nm, that has more than 50,000 hours on the clock and uses a monster amount of electricity that would trip a 15W breaker - yikes.

Hard to justify when a focusable 488nm 60mW Cyan-Blue Dot Laser Module/488nm Laser Diode/TTL
runs $40 including shipping on eBay.

Someone should offer $150 as an elephant's graveyard curiosity buy and see if the guy takes it.

I've got a basically new single line argon. Paid a whole lot less for it.

TEM00 mode, lower phase noise, higher stability, smaller spectrum. That's worth something too

 

[Encap]

Maybe worth something more if those capacities are needed for a necessary real world application but 22 year old unit with over 50,000 hours is a bit over the edge when average useful life of an argon tube is like 5000 hours.
If the "seller refurbished" means new argon tube then it is worth a little more to someone who needs one. The seller does not say what he means by 'seller refurbished" however.
