Looking to buy a 3W+ Blue Laser.

Need to have batteries and a charger to come with it. I have goggles, but if you're selling goggles let me know specs/price as I'm always looking for more.

Looking for something that looks decent and is well built.


Let me know!

I have a polished c6 3w laser that I'm willing to sell, It comes with 6 brand new rcr123a batteries with charger and such, also comes with glasses. Please pm if you really need a 3w laser, I can hook you up. :)

What's your budget? A 3W can come in all shapes and sizes.

Hey, im Jason im new to the forum...Im also looking for a 3.4 to 3.5watt 445nm. I saw a few different builds and they all look great, but im actually looking for a host that as short as possible. Maybe about 3 to 4 inches total in length. I know its going to be pricey, but its worth it to me. Let me know if anybody hears about such a small host...thanks

A 3w laser is going to require a host that can hold at least the smallest of suitable batteries, usually around the size of cr123As, the smallest host I know of that can be built for a three watt laser is the c6. I have some polished c6 hosts for sale if you are interested.

A host that size will get hot fast. Heat is a laser killer. Also a diode that produces that power draws a lot from the batteries. 1x 16340 will die super quick in a 9mm build, prob under 5-10 min depending on draw from the diode/driver. You might think that's what you want but trust me, few weeks in you'll regret the size choice

I've been pumping 2.2 amps through a 9mm diode in a c6 host since October, the diode is perfectly fine as of today. The new 9mm's can handle butt loads of heat without deteriorating.

Tell that to Tony and the other guys who have had their dominators die on them.........

EDIT: Also look at the 9mm builds of the community. There is maybe 1 out of ever 50 that are done in small hosts. What do the builders use? Larger hosts, dont think they are wrong. Just saying

True, I'm looking to buy one of the maces of doom hosts from mrcrouse, those things are massive.

Yes they are. Not exactly my style but those are great for 9mm. Plus to me, if you are dropping $100 diode into something, might as well put it in something that will protect it forever and have 5 min + run times :beer:

First laser is a lie and second is junk

There is NO way Rick can get 4.6W out of a 9mm diode. If he does say he can then either his meter is not calibrated or he is pushing them so hard that they will pop soon. My 3.2W MagLite is driven at 2.4A which is right at the safe level for a 9mm yet its still 1.4W under what Rick says he can get.......BS

Pretty sure the hopes is that the buyers dont have a LPM and cant check the power. I'll only believe it when I see it with my own eyes.
