Re: Laser Company scams reveiled and Explained

:mad: Ban him.  We don't want to know the truth.  :p We want to live in our fanatical world that our underspec wicked lasers are the best in the freaken world because we want to feel justified that we spent four times as much as we should have paid for something of much less quality.   ;D

Being sarcastic btw.  This forum is much different then LC, meaning we don't necessarily support any single laser company and we are not communists who automatically switch the words: nova or optotronics to wicked or dragon...

Keep up the good work, but please resize your pictures!  Its a little over 150% for my screens settings, so I have to scroll to see it and that's a little bit of a pain on a graph like that.   :p

Re: Laser Company scams reveiled and Explained

Welcome to the forum :)
It has pretty much been accepted as fact that WL/TL is crap, but as for NOVA, they have a good reputation here and from my personal experience they are a good company. Their products are far better than anything on eBay.
TL [supposedly] sells clones of CNI lasers, so I don't think CNI is a scamming company.
They actually supply some of the better laser companies. [Correct me if I am wrong] Nova and Laserglow both buy from CNI and are affiliate distributors.

As for the issue about the 175mW pen style laser, some members here own X150/175s and have made reviews, so I'm sure they would be willing to share their opinion on the matter.

I hope this is image is better.Yes millions of  people have purchased lasers from various companies no doubt, wether that makes the lasers worth,is a whole different story.Of all of them Laseglow is the most trusted honest and no nonsence by far but they are very pricey too and they order to specific specs and use some CNI modules but mostly they engineer and order to spec and assemble some themselves.Not to mention they use hi-quality drivers and components.The housing of a laser is infact the last concern of  a well engineered laser,its more like the easthetic and functional part of the design.You can ask Igor etc.Anyway we are not here to bash but more so to set matters straight.As i said no way are these 150-175mw  lasers worth retail 600usd.They must be on drugs.:)

He probably didn't mean to use the same avatar as me so I vote not to ban.
