Hey all. Great forum you have here!
Here's the deal....I want to get into some higher power lasers! I currently use a green one at work to point things out to my crew. It runs on a single cr123. I think it's pretty f-ing cool! I ordered a blue 2AAA one off eBay (got the suggestion on this forum. It's one of those osram ones) and safety glasses from Survival Laser. I've been lurking here for a few days now and am really itching to pull the trigger on a nice 100mW-2W 445nm handheld. Not sure if I should go big right away or work my way up! And yes I am well aware of the dangers and intend to be safe! I own and carry guns daily and intend to apply the same rules to a laser.
As far as what I am going to use it for, I have no real idea. Lasers are just so fricking cool and I'm kind of a gadget guy. I have several higher end flashlights (more than 10), iPhones, iPads, GPS's , guns, knives etc. I like to collect high quality things. (My kids are going to make out pretty good when I go!) I have a feeling I will end up with several lasers in various colors and powers. I think I would eventually like to build my own but for now I'll just buy. If anyone has any suggestions please feel free to share them!
