Hi,

I own both a G1 and a G2. Since Smartchip is simply more badass, i'm selling the G1.

i'm new here. so i'm not exactly sure how much it sales for or how much i should be asking for. The laser is USED of course. It may have a minor problem. Last time i used it was the beginning of the semester and something was a bit off with the power button. I'm pretty sure there was a few times where i thought i turned it on, but it stayed off or w/e. cant remember very well. Anyways, i'm heading back to my apt tomorrow around noon and will test it out and update/revise my post. For now, i just wanted see if there are people interested in purchasing it and what is a reasonable price.

Package:
-1W 445nm Arctic
-the lens that comes with the laser
-18650 battery
-GOGGLES NOT INCLUDED. I play around with the laser with my roommate so i kinda need two sets of goggles. I strongly recommend you purchasing one from else where.
-Manual
-The original Box... with minor damage. I've been testing out the laser on the box it came with. So It'll look fine from couple yards away, but when you close up on it, you'll see burned spots.

Shipping:
I'll use First class mail Priority w/ tracking. This is included in the total price. Unless you want to pay for it separately. Again, i'm new here. NOt sure how sales are conducted on the forum.


Alright well this is all i can think of for now. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reply or pm me.



Revisions:

Buyer:
-Must reside within US. I don't want to deal with Customs, not to mention legality issues.
-If you have high reputation, i'm willing to ship the product to you first and maybe earn some reputation points in return.

I will post some in about 10 hours.

2nd Revision:
Alright i'm officially retarded. After spending hours in lab and at home trying to figure out why my laser isn't turning on all the time, i came to realize that the safety pin was ~10 degrees off and thus partially disconnecting the flow. I've pushed it all the way in and it is working absolutely fine. turning on 100% of the time now.

You are purchasing the one I'm shining in the picture.

Re: G1 Wicked Arctic 4 Sale

I'm not getting many views. Should i delete this post and repost this and include "1W 445nm Laser" in the title? would that be against the rules?

You need to give it time. You'll get plenty of views eventually.

Re: G1 Wicked Arctic 4 Sale

Some advice would be to add pictures, more details of it functioning and add a price. Good luck with the sale! It will sell for sure but you will need a middle man since you are new.

Price and pictures would help. You can edit the title if you would like by clicking "Edit" then clicking "Go Advanced". iFosh is right though, you will more than likely need to use a middleman.

Re: G1 Arctic 1W 445nm Laser Best Offer?

How many mW is it outputting?
Does it come with the charger?
What is wrong with the switch?
Where are you shipping it from (city or state)?

No it does not come with charger or the goggle. Well i guess i can include the goggle for extra $10.

Shipping it from Raleigh, NC

I tested out the laser today, the power was measured to be around 740mW w/ laserbee. But the battery was low. So i'd expect the power to be ~5% higher. What power has everyone else been getting for their G1 and G2?

It appear the power switch problem is quite significant. Therefore, i'm hoping to get some advices on fixing the issue before selling it. Initially i thought the power switch is not working 100% of the time. However, I began to notice that the laser turns on and off as i rotate the battery cap. So i began to think that the case is not conducting the electricity. But that wouldn't make sense either. So i really don't know what to think. Any suggestion?

Can someone test whether the inner case and the negative terminal are connected when the power switch is on?

Re: G1 Arctic 1W 445nm Laser Best Offer?

Ya, I would offer a decent bit more, but the fact that it is from WickedLasers kind of devaluates it for me :) Good luck on your sale, and hopefully you can fix the tailcap. You could try disassembling the switch and see if there is a problem there.

And in all seriousness, how much are you looking to get for the laser?

Would $150 including shipping sound fair?

I'm a bit confused, does it work 100% of the time now?

If so, how powerful is it?
