SOLD 1w 520nm handheld $400

Today I'm selling my ~1 watt 520nm build for a decent chunk of money.

I had this laser for a month and I need to sell it for savings funds.

Please note that my laser power meter is about 15% off on reading the true power of any visible laser. For example if the meter reads 850mw the lasers power is really 1000mw. I found this out after cross comparing with two properly calibrated meters when doing a middle man trade back then.

First off, this laser is extremely bright. The dot is a complete eye sore when not wearing goggles. 520nm light at 1000mw is approx 550 lumens. Putting that in perspective, this laser is twice as bright as a 5w 445nm laser.

I'm now asking for $400 for the laser itself. I only have one of these so first offer may get it! Please pm me, paypal is accepted.

Specs
Wavelength: 520nm
Output power: >1000mw
Diode: ndg700
Diode current: 1.8 amps
Driver used: x drive
Host: x1 18650 sized white powered host. Use two smaller batteries.
Operating voltage: 6-8 volts
Boot method: side momentary doorbell button. (No click)
Lens: g-2
Has adjust focus

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld

You say 1W in the title and >1000mW in the description, but the LPM only shows 900mW. Which is it?

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld

I honestly don't know. I did state that my lpm is inaccurate after cross comparing to two different lpms. This is the only lpm that i have.

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld

Just curious, why is the body diameter so much bigger than the other laser next to it? Can it hold a 26650 or are the walls thicker?

thanks

If you don't know, then it's 900mW.... not 1000mW.

If you really think your LPM is inaccurate, then you potentially shouldn't rely on its reading at all. Finally, you're not using your LPM properly. You never meter with the output right up against or nearly touching the sensor. At that distance, radiant heat from the heatsink is liable to artificially increase your reading.

Do you have an extra white host? If so, are you selling it?

What kind of laser did you use to cross compare the LPM's? If you used a handheld it's more than likely that your LPM is just fine because handhelds drop in power over time.

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld

Vouching for NPR, bought his lasers before, well built and long-lasting

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld $400

Price drop!

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld $400

Free bump for a great price. If only I didn't already have a 1w 520

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld $400

Whos going to snap this up? if i had the money this would be gone!
But i get about 200USD then i have to spend it, too hard to save 400

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld $400

I'm now asking for $400 for the laser itself? I don't understand, are you still offering the white host with it?

Comes with the host, all for $400 I need cash quick

Re: FS: 1w 520nm handheld $400

I would consider buying the extra host, if you're selling it for a reasonable price. I kick myself for not jumping on Eghemus' sale.
