Hello,

I give you the lovely old Rayfoss, 'http://www.rayfoss.com/productn.asp?ArticleID=34' laser for sale.

I've had this one for about a year now or so, more or less always obeyed the duty cycle just never got my lazy bum around to cleaning the lens as I am to scared I might end up scratching it or something terrifying.
Painting coat seems fine other than a tiny spec where the paint is slightly chipped, it took me a good minute or two to locate anything so it's reasonably 'cloaked' as you can imagine.

The laser will come along with;
Goggles which block 99.9% of green wavelength,
One Ultrafire 18650 2400mAh 3.7v rechargeable battery,
One battery re-charger,
Two keys to operate the laser tail-cap (It needs a key to turn it on)

I have used this laser for astronomy causes as well as the mandatory burning habits any laser enthusiast with a mind filled with burning hot love of pyro relayed activities.
I did try to record better pics such as beamshots but the two camera's I tried were awful and I just gave up in the end after spending one hour reading guides on what to adjust settings to followed by failed beam shot attempts..
Mode hopping does not usually occur however it has in the past, when it does I usually just let the laser cool off for a good amount of time.
The lens needs a sure clean without a doubt, it is clogged with dirt and when unfocused it has tiny visible specs of darkness where I presume something is stuck onto the lens, I am not entirely sure.
The green beam in the night sky is one I will surely miss, however I intend on hopping onto the 1Watt band wagon.. so much power for such little cost one can not avoid.
If I happen to have missed anything out please tell me, if you require any extra pics just say so and I will hopefully whisk them up asap.

Pic below is from about 10mins or so ago, just a quick proof I have the laser, notice it has my forum name on show. The shutter at the front was closed for this pic, hence no green light launching out the aperture.

Thanks for reading.

Edit: Not entirely sure about what price range to float around, just shoot me offers with 1/2 a braincell of thought, cheers.



Edit 2: Laser is sold

What country are you in and will you ship international?

Its a nice laser, wish I could have it but I have enough lasers already :eek:

Hey just so you know, you can clean that lenses with some lens cleaner and a q-tip. Its not too easy to scratch lenses. Just wet your tip and swirl the qtip and swap sides to dry the lens and repeat. You shouldn't worry ^^

I would rather keep it within the Eu I suppose, just to avoid all the extra possible delays if I was to ship it to the US etc.
The price range, well about $65-85 would seem fairly reasonable..?

Is that dollars or euros? If USD, I'd probably take it.

If That laser is putting out >200 mw I would say 85$ usd is a steal! Events if it were <200mw I'd still say 85$ usd is very good.

Assuming the laser is in working order too :)

That's why i asked if it's USD or Euros (since he's from europe). I'm not sure how perfect the power output would be, plus it probably has some IR leakage, and it already mode hops a bit here and there. I'd only be worried about purchasing because of the mode hop, but aside from that, it's a good deal.

It could be in any currency, pref £ Sterling to avoid any exchange rate fee's.
I have no idea what the output is either, all I know is that it should be less than 200mw, what area it is floating around I have.... :undecided:

What they are asking is the 85$ you could mean 85euros or 85 dollars....those would be 2 quite different things
