How to turn your green laser orange

Not really though. All you need is a thing of Extra virgin olive oil. But it sure looks cool

ps: It looks even better through a bottle of Bacardi 151. Or maybe thats after you drink it? ;D

These are shots shining an Elite 150 into a bottle of Extra virgin olive oil.

I have a clear bottle of oil lamp oil that gives tha same orange fluorescense effect with my greens and my blurays. Many different liquids can show this effect.

Dose blu-ray do the same thing as green?

Just saw your post here. I grabbed a small beaker and filled it with the lamp oil in question. I set up a green laser of about 15 mw, and a bluray laser of about 25 mw. A photo was taken with the two beams passing through the oil. The upper beam, of a larger diameter, is from the bluray, the lower, smaller diameter beam, is the green.

Here is another example, this time, the liquid is a hand soap. A DX200 red is at the top, bluray in middle, green at bottom. The red and green beams appear normal, the bluray appears as a powder blue beam due to fluorescence.

Last example before dinner. A blue lamp oil is used here. The upper beam is about 80 mw of bluray. The lower beam is 150 mw green lab laser. Pronounced orange effect from the green!

The orange should be probably brighter if you shine it at the edge.The blue liquid must drown orange. :-/
Awesome pictures in this thread nonetheless

I'll have to try it myself

OK, here's one that shows selective transmission. The green beam easily passes through the beaker, using 15 mw green. The red beam, courtesy of a DX200, only penetrates a short distance before being completely attenuated. The bluray of 20 mw simply doesn't get anywhere, barely entering the beaker.
The liquid in this case is Tide laundry detergent.

In this last one, magenta fluorescent dye has been added to the water in the beaker. The green laser up top, and the bluray, both give a yellow/orange glow.

Those are very cool. The best stopper I found is grenadine. I can post a picture if you would like. But I shined 200mW green, and you cant see anything but a spec.

Is the green beam (532) brighter than the rest because it's composed almost entirely of spinach?

pwnstar · May 23, 2008

lets ask popeye...

But no its because the color of the liquid is closer to green than red or violet. Therefore it lets more green light threw. or it just fluorescents brighter.
