I order several times, last order at 01.26 got it on 06.02, a very presentable shipping time i would say.
Orders to germany.

last time i order 3x 30mw.
I measure and one is with 48mw way overspec but the two others are way underspec with around only around 17mw.
For the measurement i hook all 3 up on adjustable powersupply at exactly 3 volt.

I sell them to friends, the better ones get the overspec. :
But people dont care, 17mw green pointer is much more laser then most of the people ever have seen, in a pointer.

As far as reselling them goes: If you do it to make a profit, you could set up a very decent business with these.

Just order a whole lot of them, and measure them for output, selling at appropriate prices. If you order 20 of the 30 mWs, you can get a distribution of, for example 5 pcs >10, 10pcs > 20, 3 pcs>30 and if lucky one >40 and one >50.

This is likely to make a profit selling to people that are interested in quality, in my opinion a guaranteed >20 is more valuable than a 'maybe 30'.

Binning like that has been done succesfully with the more expensive CNI pens, but could work for the cheapies as well.

Order was shipped on 3/2, Just arrived today.

I ordered two 50mW greens and two of the mxdl lipstick size lights.

For the price... its a good deal.



i can see the beam at night, but its not as bright as my WL 55, so i think its underspec (if my WL is even a 55) I also thought that the beam could have been tighter. Still a good deal for the 25$

i would order more

Default Re: The LEDShoppe Thread

I figured out something very interesting about the LEDshoppe 50mW lasers; this is a possible explanation for why the beam diameter is so thick and the divergence isn't great.

I own a ridiculously overpowered 5mW NewWish laser purchased from DX (it's actually 55mW). When I compared the two lasers, I noticed that they made a roughly equally bright dot on a close surface, but at a distance, the LEDshoppe 50mW looks weaker and has a strange, off-center halo around it. Without tearing the thing apart, I compared the lenses of the two pointers. The DX pointer has a very large aperture at the end and the lens is in an adjustable brass housing. The LEDshoppe pointer, on the other hand, has a much smaller aperture (probably half the diameter) and the lens looks to be glued in place!pp

I suspect that the LEDshoppe pointer's lens is just glued in place to achieve a rough focus and the smallness of the aperture helps to keep the beam from diverging wildly.

This would account for why my DX pointer has a very thin, clean beam while the LEDshoppe pointer has a thick and much less visible beam.

Sadly, I had a bad (sort of) experience with Ledshoppe. I don't have a laser power meter, But my friend has a 30mw green laser and the beams at night, and dot on wall were almost completely identical. Dot through white paper were the same, and shined through coca cola, the orange type beam it creates, both lasers made it through the coke about an inch. So I assume I got around a 30mw instead of a 50. But for the price...Who cares, right? Better than buying a 5mw green at office depot for 80 bucks lmfao.

There won't be much of a visible difference between 50 and 30mW.
My X50 (averaging 61mW) is nearly as bright as my modified X105.
On low batteries, the X105's beam looks exactly the same as the X50, but the 105 still burns through paper easily.

Lol, I'm waiting on a 90mw average pen from Susie atm. Although my experience with Ledshoppe was pretty good now that I look back on it. Not a bad price for what you get. Much better than my first ever purchase from amazon...30mw pointer did that &quot;beam shift over when it turns on&quot; thing. At least I only trashed around 20 bucks. Fairly cheap lesson to learn. Didn't know about the forum then though.

I just got delivery of 2 more of these 50 mW LED Shoppe units, and these are rockin as well. 80 &amp; 85 mW on my Kenometer, and the dot looks sharp and intense from 30 feet compared to my PL III 125 mW unit! So, three of the last 4 were about 80 mW with regular Alcaline batteries, (I only have one pair of Nimh's but I'll be wanting more). I sure hope all those folks who use these in short burning experiments have goggles! 8-) 8-) 8-)

I ordered 10 of the 5mw lasers from ledshoppe, and received them promptly in a week. This was all great but upon receiving them, 3 didnt even work, and the ones that did were extremely underpowered, and the threads didnt mesh at all. I emailed CCNow and they contacted Ledshoppe, I then received an email directly from LedShoppe, and they are sending me ten new personally tested lasers. I hope these will work, because ATM I am not very satisfied with their products.

I emailed CCNow and they contacted Ledshoppe, I then received an email directly from LedShoppe, and they are sending me ten new personally tested lasers. I hope these will work, because ATM I am not very satisfied with their products.
Ten new pointers without question is a pretty generous customer service gesture in my opinion.

That said, I believe all of those &quot;black&quot; pointers (ie not 50mW or 30mW) have decidedly worse quality control than the silver ones. My 5mW blackie that I bought for my brother came with a dent near the apeture and a lopsidedly mounted module.

yah, i ordered two 5mw green lasers off ebay, which had &quot;laser pointer&quot; on the clip on the side of the pointer, and the Ledshoppe 5mw's dont have that, and also have a different warning label, and are case positive. the 50 and 30 mw's have the &quot;laser pointer&quot; engraved in the clip, and have the same warning label. On the label of the 30 and 50mw as well as the ebay 5mw's, it says the brand is &quot;RAY&quot;

If you mean the AAA sized 10440 batteries, I've heard they will work, but you can only use ONE per pointer with a AAA spacer, else you will far exceed the allowable input voltage of the module, and fry it.

EDIT: By AAA spacer I mean a dummy battery or something that can complete the circuit, NOT a normal AAA battery! You'll probably have to create your own, as I don't think these exist...
