I have become acquainted with this guy a bit, he's usually a pretty swell guy based on the conversations we've had. He frequently gets interesting stuff coming through.





I have lots of things, gas and solid state ranging from small stuff to lab stuff you [probably] couldn't afford :) If you just want a little tube like this, maybe with a power supply, probably be 50-100 bucks depending on what I have/what you need. :)

Didn't really want to open a whole new thread about this, but does anyone know of any sort of duty cycle? Of the PSU or tube? Sorry for any ignorance, this is the first gas laser I've had. Thought I'd ask just to stay on the safe side.

Nope, no duty cycle. :)

Thanks for the link earlier - unfortunately something else came up and I won't now have the cash I was planning on spending on lasers.

T-case replacement on my truck didn't go as planned ... output shaft on the replacement is longer :mad::mad:

After seeing this thread I wanted to check out what all the fuss is about, so I picked up this exact setup for 55$ on eBay. Haven't had any experience with gas lasers but damn that tube is pretty cool. Would consider getting more of them, thanks Antharak for the link!

Here's some shots I got:

I have seen the odd one this size from a very ancient (1980's) laser disk player (before CDs). :thinking:

I too am starting to get the gas bug as well. Getting interested in possibly getting a CO2 laser. :thinking: :D

Wow without a PSU that's a bad deal my dad bought me my little LHR-004 Tube back in the day for $5 And it was New old stock Mint.

Sorry for the thread Hijack but seriously If anyone wants a larger tube hit me up. I still have lots I would love to pass on to better homes.
