Hello potential buyers,

this is my very first sale in the lpf.com B/S/T section. The title says it all.

For sale there's a 1W Skylaser PL-650, dark red treat. Many of you know this laser very well, a few reviews are out there in proper section (Red lasers/Review), basic info can be found directly at the source:

PL 650nm 100-1000

There are two reasons I'm selling this handheld laser:
1) I own two of these, I'm holding onto the slightly more powerful one:D
2) trying to collect some cash for a decent DSLR beginner's camera

Please note: I bought this laser in April this year from a previous owner, Brendon7358. It was received in mint condition, today is practically in same shape with some minimal scratches on the tailcap.

Please see the following pictures attached, what you see is what you get.
Shots taken with Galaxy Note 2 today, the 24th of August 2013.

First, power output measurement with 5W LaserBee Ophir (the jump occurred due to my hand moving):

...and with LaserBee 3.7W USB

The performance is solid 1W at least within the first 2 minutes, it decreases eventually very slowly the longer the laser's on.

The total runtime up to this date (in my possession) was up to 1 hour roughly.

Beam shots taken inside the bathroom:)

Closer look (no exposure means no beam visible)

The whole contents: laser, charger, case with keys, remote connector jack, power switch keys. Everything in aluminium case.

I've decided to cover the blue LED indicator with a strap of red electrical tape to match the wavelength color:)

And one more look from above at the contents:

Asking price: $250. Payments accepted through paypal.
This already includes registered shipping (EU $20, US $25) with the tracking number provided, so both parties (seller & buyer) will know about the laser's location and destiny:).
No batteries are included in the package.
EDIT: original 1x18650 battery charger and undamaged case included in the price!

Notice for overseas/non-EU buyers: I'm not responsible for any extra customs fees and VAT charges (EU buyers are safe in this matter).

Don't hesitate to PM me if there's a serious interest for the item.

Important notice: A buyer must be 18+ years old and be fully aware of laser usage safety precautions.

:thanks: for watching.

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

I've realised I have 2 more cases available, so I can replace the one pictured in the OP with a proper one with the handle (the way it should be). Also adding a charger for 1x18650 battery that originally came with the bundle.

And still for $250 incl. shipping. Coming down from $350, this is not a bad offer!

Come on people, I don't bite:D

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

Well, since the post count view for this FS thread of mine has gone up over a symbolical 250:) and no buyers showed up, I've decided to include a fair quality glasses, Eagle Pair® safety goggles covering (not only) the 650nm wavelength more then enough:).

Link: Eagle Pair® 190-540nm Standard Laser Safety Goggles

Goggles are in mint condition. Come with a pouch/bag.

The actual pictures:

Price remains the same:

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

I was going to say I'm in to buy it, but I just remembered the forthcoming GB and my commit there...

So this is just a bump for a great deal! Congrats in advance to whomever wins this awesome bundle.

:)

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

Cheers for the comments, guys.

Just to let you all (who are considering this deal) know, I'm leaving this offer on until the end of this week. If I don't get final answers, I'd rather keep the laser.

Blaster: shipping even the laser only to Australia could be a huge risk. I'd be selling the whole lot only, since it's the original way I've received it and want to sell it like that. Sorry, man:(

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

Very well then, I'll take offroadfreak's advice and leave this offer on until the end of September. I suppose if there's no interest for this bundle thereafter, ultimately I shall keep it:D.

One member showed interest in buying it off me, but never heard of him again.

Let's keep this sale on so...

Re: FS: Skylaser PL-650 1W

BowtieGuy & offroadfreak8582: appreciate your free bumps!

Due to the size of the laser it needs to be well packed & secured, so the fact it's coming in original aluminium case has its reason. I could have it labeled as a big flashlight with equipment, but can't guarantee what happens to this package once it arrives over to a non-EU country...hell I've received this originally from an US based forum member, but had to pay an extra $100 only because of the true value stated, not because it was a huge laser pointer:D.
