Re: 1-1.2 watt 445nm lasers CHEAP $180

I just deleted an long explanation..... let me at least say that most these beams are about the same size when they first come out of the laser... so at that point, more power is dominant... but the farther you go out, its not all about power any longer unless convergence remains the same with both lenses.

Exaggerating the illustration.. at some point, any laser turns into a flashlight as the beam is no longer useful at some point in the distance.

G-1 and G-2 are awesome at transmitting power... but divergence is affected, the G-2 is a tad better.

But in an effort to give everyone the sweetest bargain possible and the perfect balance between being inexpensive but yet still maintaining brute power.... I can't find anything close to this bargain.

There is other stuff out there with other options.. but expect to pay double and up.

The G-1 or G-2 lens cost over 1/4 and nearly 1/3 the total price of this laser, especially when you consider the charger etc you are now getting without a price raise!... wow!

If you want to keep the price down you have to consider these things and realize that any benefits incurred may be expensive... especially if you also lose in some other area.

I bought one of Yobresal's lasers because there was nothing else out there that could touch the price mixed with quality it offers......

If I ever decide I don't need it, it will be easy to double or triple my money when I show it off to some of my friends!

its really a no brainer purchase.....

Unless your nearly broke and can barely afford this laser.. buy this one and then buy anything else you want too!.....

if you don't quite have that much money.. buy two of these and you can share and not have everyone wanting to play with yours!

I can't wait till Christmas fireworks!..... I won't need a punk! :evil:

Oh believe me, I haven't even gotten mine yet and I know this is an awesome deal for the price. Everyone who's gotten theirs so far gives it 5 stars and two thumbs up so I know I'll love it as-is, and $180 is cheap!

I was more just curious as to if he had done any experimenting with different lenses. I think that for the price it would be very difficult if not impossible to improve on this laser though. Mine is scheduled to arrive on Monday according to USPS and I'm already drooling :eg:
:drool:

I have tested these with a 405-G-1 lens. Not a fan. I originally had a lot of trouble though with the aixiz lenses as the first batch I received were coated very crappily and were unusable. Everything is fine now though.

So a microfiber cloth is the way to go when cleaning the diode? Should i use rubbing alcohol as well?

Took a group of kids trick-or-treating last night (6 kids vs 11 adults) & every pack of trick-or-treaters we passed by stopped to ask where to get one... :)

Got mine today. It burns, it slices and dices. It will punch a hole in a CD jewel case in 4-5 seconds from 3 feet away. Wear your safety glasses, this thing is bright and powerful!

My Review:
GET THIS LASER! Very well worth it.

Great build Yobresal.
